Thy Kingdom Come: Sunday 31st May, Pentecost

“The God of all grace”

Today we’re using Acts 2 to shape our prayers.

“We hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!”
Amazed and perplexed, they asked one another, “What does this mean?”"
(Acts 2:11–12)

Pray for God’s help as you read Acts 2.

  • What explanation does Peter give for the events of Pentecost (see especially verses 31-36)? How is the Spirit’s coming linked with the resurrection?

  • What are we to conclude about who Jesus is, what he’s doing now and what he will do? What does that mean people should do?

  • How does the fledgling church live in response (v42-47)?  What do these characteristics look like today?

  • Believers in Christ share in the same Spirit and have the same message. How does this reality encourage you today?

Please also pray … for those in our communities who have no contact with Christians:

  • That they would become friends with a believer and see the difference Christ makes to them.

  • That they would hear about the grace of God and for the Holy Spirit to work powerfully in them to bring them to faith.
