Equipped for Purpose
Devotional: God never calls us to a task without providing the tools we need. Just as a carpenter needs their tools, we need spiritual equipment to fulfill our calling. The baptism of the Holy Spirit is God's way of fully equipping us for His work. This empowerment isn't just for our benefit - it's meant to make us effective witnesses and vessels of His love to others. Through this spiritual empowerment, we can demonstrate supernatural peace, patience, and kindness that draws others to Christ.
Key Bible Verse: "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." - Acts 1:4-5
Reflection Question: What spiritual tools do you need to be more effective in sharing God's love with others?
Quote: The primary purpose for all of this is to be an effective witness.
Prayer: Holy Spirit, equip me with Your power to be an effective witness for Jesus. Help me to demonstrate Your love and truth to those around me. Amen.
