SCRIPTURE: John (NIV) 21:25 There are so many other things Jesus did. If they were all written down, each of them, one by one, I can’t imagine a world big enough to hold such a library of books.
OBSERVATION: John finishes his book about the life of Christ with the above words. They are like the last verse of the chapter in yesterday’s SOAP. It took Luke to pick up the narrative about what Jesus continued to do through the working of the Holy Spirit.
APPLICATION: It is exciting to read about God working in the lives of the early church. But, to me, it is just as exciting to read about what God is doing today. Sometimes when I hear about God working in Africa, I think, that is the same way Peter was called to Cornielius home. (Acts 10) I hear about healings which result in whole communities hearing the good news of Jesus! (Acts 9:39-42)
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, obviously, You are just as interested in opening your kingdom to those lost in sin today as you were in the days of the book of Acts. Surely you are coming soon and you want your banquet hall to be full. Use us to bring others with us. Amen
