Daily Scripture Threshing for Thursday, June 9, 2022
Today’s Text: Acts 2:14-21
Key Verse: Acts 2:17 (KJV): “And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.”
How do one survive in a generation in which there is such an unprecedented outpouring of evil? We no longer need to look too far before we find out that every sign of the last days are here. We are already in that time of difficulty. People are now extreme lovers of self, and lovers of money than God. They are proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving God, and hating good things. They are treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, and what could be more: even religious folks now only have the appearance of godliness, but deny its power. People now no longer tolerate sound doctrine. Instead, with itching ears, they gather teachers around themselves to suit their own desires. Beside these, many people currently live through dark days of war and terror.
The one thing we all need to survive this evil days marked by terror and gloom is the aid of God’s promised Holy Spirit. God has provided us basic survival strategy to go through. He promised to lavishly dispense (pour out) His Spirit upon us with all His influences and effects. We are able to discern the times. God gifts us with his spirit so that we can be guided to detect hidden error and evil in others, and things. Yes, the Holy Spirit also helps us discover hidden errors and evil in ourselves as well. We are not only guided on negativities; but God’s Spirit also helps us find and bring forth the good that may be concealed in others as well find and bring forth the good that may be hidden about ourselves. We all need this outpouring, right now, more than anything else in a time like this. Yes, more than money, and more than things. This is the much needed special property to survive present times and seasons.
Quote for the Day: “True faces of good and evil are not perceivable by the naked eye of humans. The Holy Spirit of God is there to help reveal deep things of life.” (Simon Olatunji)
Prayer: Dear Lord, let your promises Spirit manifest in me in wisdom and guidance over my life today. Let Him guide me and supply me all the help I need to Liv e right and make right choices in this perilous times — in Jesus’ name. Amen.
With all my love and prayers,
Rev Simon Wale Olatunji, Ph.D.
