When our church decided to make these four devotions the DNA of our small groups, real growth started to happen. I want to be part of a 1st century church that reaches a 21st century community. Are you in a home group yet?

Be My Witnesses

May 22, 2011 | Acts 1:6-11 | evangelism

Pastor Gary Combs teaches from the book of Acts in a message entitled “Be My Witnesses.” The day after many were wondering about the Rapture prediction (May 21st), we read in Acts 1:6-11 that knowing the times and dates “is not for us to know” according to Jesus. Instead, we’re to be busy telling others about Jesus until his return.

God sets the seasons. Farmers don’t go to conferences to learn how to grow their fields during a winter season. They learn early on to work and rest with the seasons.
The record of the early church in the book of Acts reflects a seasonal movement of peace and persecution, gathering and dispersion, all under the Spirit’s leadership.
How can we become like farmers who know the times? How can we do the right kind of work and find the right times to rest?
Lord, help us to recognize the seasons and to work when the Spirit works and rest when He rests. Help us move with the rhythm of Your Spirit.
