This time of year is the time of graduation and looking forward to new things. We are reminded by our Scripture Lessons to continue learning God’s Word and living according to it.
God urged the Israelites to continue in His Word, His Laws and His Promises and to teach them to their children. He also warned them about what would happen if they forgot or turned from Him.
After Jesus’ Ascension, His disciples lived according to Jesus’ Word, loving one another.
Finally, let’s never tire of sharing and teaching God’s Word, because it still causes grown and saves human beings.
…for each redeemed soul. God is surely glorified in our Scripture Lessons for this Pentecost. He did great things for Israel but they dishonored Him. Still He made His name great by promising to cleanse them of sin and to send His Spirit. God has done great things for us. He has made us heirs and sent the Holy Spirit to dwell in us. Jesus calls upon us to love one another and promises to send the Spirit of Truth to dwell within us.
The primary focus of our Scripture Lessons this Sunday. We are to seek the LORD in prayer, asking for His mercy and forgiveness. We are to pray for those in authority. We are to be persistent in prayer.
