Running with Jesus  

 

Acts1:14 “These all continued with one accord prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.

 

     The disciples returned to Jerusalem and went back to the upper room just as Jesus had told them to do.  They were to go and wait on their next direction.  Did you notice that they were all in one accord and praying?  One accord In the Greek means one mind or one passion.  They were all on the same page!

     I remember on 9/11 for about a month we were all on the same page.  As the days passed and we got over the devastation that took place, we were once again back on our busy schedules.  I thought we might see a revival among our people, but look where we are  years later.  Not better and that is for sure!  We are further away from God as a nation than in the history of the United States.  How sad!

     We must get in one accord to receive from God insight and direction.  The body of Christ is in Satan’s cradle and is being rocked to sleep.  We are going to begin to see the changes that took place in the life of Peter, whom had been sifted and restored to Jesus, and all the disciples as they are filled and empowered by the Holy Spirit to begin the Church age to share the gospel.  America has played one of the greatest parts of sharing the gospel to the world.  Our forefathers were on the same page when they came and established this nation.  Even our laws were created from the Bible.

      If we are to become all Christ wants for us to do we must get in one accord.  Our minds must come together and the only way this can be done is for us to walk in obedience to His Word.  Romans 12:1-2 talks about us being transformed by the renewing of our minds,  the only way for us to become like minded is to become like Christ in our thinking is to meditate on scripture, hide it in our hearts and live out what we learn from the pages of His written Word.

 

Father, renew our mind and help us each to be transformed and like minded as we run on through life.  Help us not bend or bow down to the false teachings and doctrines of the world and their desires and standards of living.  Jesus, You were in the world but lived not of this world and as our example You only did the will and mind of the Father.  Make us to live in one accord being filled with Your wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Thank You for Your sweet Spirit our helper, comfort, and teacher.  Let us remember that dreary day when America’s time stopped for a few moments to pray. As we seek God, we will find ourselves united and there is power in unity.  You want to empower us but we must stay focused.

 

      Do not let Satan get you off focus, stay in the race. We have read the back of the book and Jesus won the race and we have too!

 

Peter’s different let’s meet him in the morning!
