119.


Peter Preaches to the Crowd

1.

Today's Passage: Acts 2:14-21

Get to know your bible. It will become a good friend.

Or find the chapter NASB version on Bible Gateway here.
You can search for other versions there as well. Versions even in foreign languages.

Or, for your convenience I have typed the verses below from the
New Living Testament (NLT).

14. Then Peter stepped forward with the eleven other apostles and shouted to the crowd, "Listen carefully, all of you, fellow Jews and residents of Jerusalem!
Make no mistake about this.
15. These people are not drunk, as some of you are assuming. Nine o'clock in the morning is much too early for that.
16. No, what you see was predicted long ago by the prophet Joel:
 
17. 'In the last days,' God says,
'I will pour out my Spirit upon all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy.
Your young men will see visions,
and your old men will dream dreams.
19. And I will cause wonders in the heavens above
and signs on the earth below⏤
blood and fire and clouds of smoke.
20. The sun will become dark,
and the moon will turn blood red
before that great and glorious day of the Lord arrives.
21. But everyone who calls on the name of the Lord
will be saved.'
Acts 2:14-21 NLT

5th strategy. A simple strategy: Building Blocks

• Begin by asking God to join you in building into your heart what He would want you to build.
  
• Read the passage completely
• Read the passage again. With the second reading pause after each phrase and think about the phrase. Take the phrase in slowly.
• You might want to reread the phrase until the meaning, or importance of the phrase really sinks in.
• After reading each phrase at least once, sometimes more. Go back and reread the entire passage.
• Do you find that the passage builds phrase upon phrase in importance? Why? or Why not?
• What phrase do you find most important in the passage?
• Thank God for this phrase and commit it to memory today.

3.

Father,
Thank you for this day.
We are here to find your plan for our day.
Give us wisdom.
In your name, Jehoshua, we pray today.
Amen.
