(Acts 2:1-2 NKJV) When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. {2} And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
Being in one accord means to be in agreement. When they came together, they were in One accord. They were all in agreement with what God wanted to do. It was then that the Holy Spirit came upon them.
We, the church, must be in agreement this day. Not for what we want to happen or what we think needs to happen, but in agreement with God and what He wants done.
We need to come together, believing and praying for God to help us make a difference right where we’re at. The Holy Spirit is who leads us and gives us strength, wisdom, understanding and boldness to do what God wants us to do.
Where do we start? (John 14:26 NKJV) “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.
Be in agreement with God. Receiving the Holy Spirit as our Helper is what will lead us and help us do the impossible and get the job done.
It’s the Holy Spirit who helps us to help those in the town we live in, the place where we go to work each day, the place we go to school, etc.
Pray for the Holy Spirit to guide us. He will show us what is missing, what is needed, what is going on in the area that we are in and what will help it.
Prayer first is so important! Sometimes we get going, doing our own thing and we exhaust ourselves and run out of energy before the work is done. Let God be in charge of what we do by being Holy Spirit-empowered. How do we do this? By asking the Holy Spirit to be our Helper and guide.
Let us be in one accord, receiving the Holy Spirit and going after this world together, filled with God’s power, strength, wisdom, understanding and boldness.
Amen.
