As I meditated upon what the apostle Paul said, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit” (Acts 2:38, NIV), I thank God for forgiving me as I repent my sins through faith and how I have been sanctified by the presence of the Holy Spirit who dwells within my life.
Truly, I read how the early apostles had received the teaching of God’s Word found in the Scriptural doctrine remembering the breaking of the bread that accompanies along with prayer and fellowship (Acts 2:40-41, NIV). As such, this prompts me to pray for empowerment of the Holy Spirit to help me become effective witness for Christ to pre-believers today.
Do you want to be empowered by the Holy Spirit as you become effective witness for Christ to others?
