Yes, we are still secluded, restricted and sheltered-in-place. We must live in close quarters. Sound familiar to those just after Jesus returned to heaven? (Acts 2:44)Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common, and sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as anyone had need.So continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart, praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved.(Acts 2:44-47)
After preaching on Pentecost, the disciples returned to small gatherings in their homes, sharing meals and everything else. They held "all things in common".
They worshipped daily. They lived in small groups! Yet They were glad and lived a simple life! Sounds a lot like today under Covid-19 regulations . . . but for the gladness!
Though not quarantined, the disciples lived a quiet, simple life among few but like people. . . . one might say family. They were not pressed to be in big groups or popular hang outs.
Yet many were getting saved! REVIVAL broken out in the quiet small surroundings. Could REVIVAL occur today? What if we focused upon worship, prayer, thanksgiving and sharing all we could with others in need . . . being quietly Christ-like?
Could REVIVAL break out today? Lord, send Your Spirit of REVIVAL among Your people!
