Daily Devotion: Our Aim In Life
Bible Reading: Acts 4:1-12
Key Verse: Verse 8 – “Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,”
Key Words: Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have an entire nation that is filled with the Holy Spirit? No! Oh well, then how about an entire church that was Spirit-filled? The results would be overwhelming!!
I recently read that the Kurku, a tribe in India of some 98,000 people, have as their supreme desire and objective in life to be filled with demons. When filled, they believe that their life will be immune from attacks and harm from all evil forces.
Oh yes, they believe in “god” which they say is a good spirit. They believe the good spirit created the world and created them as well. But they believe that the greatest force came from the demons, the evil spirits.
Now, I wonder what would happen if 98,000 of God’s people in our country had as their aim in life to be filled with the Holy Spirit of God. The churches would awaken, and before long a continual stream of missionaries would be flooding such places as India, and an enormous number of souls would come to Christ as Savior, because our aim in life would be right on target!!
What to do:
✞ Ask yourself, what is your aim in life?
✞ Ask your family, what is their aim in life?
✞ How many people have you won to Christ, and how many have you witnessed to?
