GOD IS DOING A NEW THING
Forget all that, it is nothing compared to what I
am going to do. For I am about to do a brand-new
thing. See, I have already begun! Do you not see
it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness
for my people to come home. I will create rivers for
them in the desert! Yes, I will make springs in the
desert, so that my chosen people can be refreshed.
ISAIAH 43:18
Reading: Acts 1:1-12
And after He had said these things, He was
lifted up while they were looking on, and a
cloud received Him out of their sight. And as
they were gazing intently into the sky while
He was going, behold, two men in white
clothing stood beside them.
Acts 1:9, 10 NASB
Discussion: Galatians 5:19-23
• What is the Outcome of following our sinful nature?
• What is the Product of following the Holy Spirit?
BE FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT
Don’t be drunk with wine, because that will
ruin your life. Instead, be filled with the Holy
Spirit, singing psalms and hymns and
spiritual songs among yourselves, and
making music to the Lord in your hearts. And
give thanks for everything to God the Father
in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ
