SCRIPTURE: Neh. 7-8; Acts 1
Acts 1:8
And when the Holy Spirit comes on you, you will be able to be my witnesses in Jerusalem, all over Judea and Samaria, even to the ends of the world.”
OBSERVATIONS: The concentric circle, starting with where you are then moving outward into the ends of the earth, shows the methodical movement from the strong center to the uttermost reaches.
APPLICATION: Work at home strengthens work abroad. Local missions puts a face on the homeless and hungry, allowing disciples to see the faces of those who are overseas, even if by proxy.
PRAYER: Lord, strengthen my commitment to local mission so that I may be moved beyond Jerusalem to the ends of the earth.
