Day 38: Church pt. 3

Scripture:
  • Acts 4:32-35 During those days, the entire community of believers was deeply united in heart and soul to such an extent that they stopped claiming private ownership of their possessions. Instead, they held everything in common. The apostles with great power gave their eyewitness reports of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. Everyone was surrounded by an extraordinary grace. Not a single person in the community was in need because those who had been affluent sold their houses or lands and brought the proceeds to the emissaries of the Lord. They then distributed the funds to individuals according to their needs.

Consider:
  • What do you notice about the description of the first church?

  • What can we put in to practice in our context?

Prayer focus:
  • Pray for others in the church by name. Be specific.
  • Pray that the Lord strengthen His church globally.
  • Pray for our (NCC) church partners in Cuba.
