And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.
Ephesians 6:18
 
 

Body of Christ May 20 - 27

For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:10

The first work we are created to do is to believe in Jesus Christ and that He died for our sins. What happens then? We know that we are given the gift of the Holy Spirit at that point (Acts 2:38), but are we filled with Him daily (Romans 8:9-11)? Do we live like Spirit filled Christians?

In the coming weeks, we will discuss what it looks like to be a Spirit filled Christian and how that relates to doing the work God has created us to do. The main text will be the book of Acts. Read ahead and enjoy learning how God uses the Holy Spirit to lead us to the work He has prepared for us.
