During this season of Pentecost, we are talking about how the Holy Spirit can impact our lives, every single day. Hi, this is Dorette Schaal with your dailyeword. The Holy Spirit is our helper, comforter and guide, and He is with us to empower us to do great things on the earth. My prayer would be that each day you would recognize the power of the Holy Spirit more and more in your life. Each dailyeword has a specific scripture attached, make sure to read the specific scripture, but why not add the whole chapter to your study if you can make time. Let’s see how the Holy Spirit works with us in prayer, in fellowship and living our best life for God. Here is your daily eword.
In the book of Acts, something spectacular happened in chapter two that was a result of what the people in the upper room were doing in chapter one. In verses 12-14 of Acts chapter 1, 120 of Jesus follower went up into the upper room and were waiting for the promised baptism of the Holy Spirit. While they were there, they began to pray together in unity. Unified prayer produces results. People praying corporately together touching heaven, can make a difference on earth. It is hard to get 120 people to be unified. Sometimes its hard to get two people unified! Think of you and yor spouse! We each have opinions, and ideas, and each one of us think ours are right. And all of us have tried to change our mates, and we know how that works, not very successfully! Imagine that with a large group! But once you get 120 people to pray together in unity, amazing things can happen. With the same purpose and the same goal, great things can happen. The amazing thing that happened was that the Holy Spirit was poured out. It was the right time and the right place. The people in the upper room were praying in unity, and the power of the Holy Spiirt was released on the earth. From that day forward, after praying together in agreement , God heard and answered! I encourage you to pray everyday on your own, but also find a prayer partner to pray with, and then join others together to pray corporately as a group. God can and will do great things, when we come tougher in prayer, in unity.
