SOUND OFF
Today's reading: Acts 1-2
"When they heard this sound, they came running to see what it was all about, and they were bewildered to hear their own languages being spoken by the believers." Acts 2:6 NLT
The mighty, rushing wind of the Holy Spirit filling the place where the believers were meeting has been talked about for centuries.
The fact that the noise and the tongues of fire fell upon the followers gathered in that place is the subject for many sermons, debates and discussions.
But did you know that the sound was heard by other believers that were not even in the building? It was heard by other Christ-followers living in Jerusalem?
Are there brothers and sisters in Christ hearing the 'noise of the Lord' coming from your home? From your workplace? From your church?
Society is full of folks sounding off for various causes, taking stands that require they up the volume, and having beliefs that are shouted from the rooftops.
Do they hear from God? Through us? Is the mighty, rushing wind of the Holy Spirit so powerfully at work in us that other believers hear the testimony?
