He arrived before you did!\u00a0He made preparations, laid out the plans, set events into motion, and\u00a0He created you for this day!<\/p>\n<p>So if God has the plan for this week, what do I do? Look at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=acts+1%3A8&amp;version=ESV\">Acts Chapter 1\u00a0verse 8<\/a>. It says that when you became a Christian you were given the gift\u00a0of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit has given you power to be the witness of God. The verse then says where that will take place&#8230; Jerusalem, Judea,\u00a0Samaria and even the ends of the earth. Since we are not in Jerusalem,\u00a0Judea or Samaria, we must be in&#8230; you guessed it&#8230; the ends of the earth!\u00a0How do you define the word \u201cwitness?\u201d In a court of law, a witness is a\u00a0person who has seen the event. I think the word \u2018witness\u2019 used in Acts\u00a0may mean the same thing. A person who has seen and will see the work\u00a0of God.<\/p>\n<p>Each night this week you\u2019ll be given some time during your small group,\u00a0and at our evening meeting, to give an account of what you saw God do\u00a0during your work day. Ask God to show you what He is doing. Tell others\u00a0what He has shown you.<\/p>\n<p>On page 5, write out your expectations for this week. What do you hope\u00a0for? What do you want? Now tell God about those expectations. At the\u00a0end of this week come back to this page and see if God has done more\u00a0than all you asked for or imagined!<\/p>\n<h6><em>Day 1 of 7 from the 2019 Mission Discovery Devotional<\/em><\/h6>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Please begin by reading Acts 1:8 Just think about it&#8230; God is already here.
