Episode 18 – Rooted in Prayer, Rising in Power

The Person: The Early Church
Scripture: “These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication…” — Acts 1:14

Devotional:
Before Pentecost, there was a prayer meeting. The early church didn’t rush ahead—they gathered, waited, and sought the Lord together. Their power didn’t come from clever strategies or charismatic leaders—it came from united, persistent prayer. Rooted in that spiritual discipline, they were ready when the Holy Spirit fell.

We often want power without preparation, results without relationship. But the pattern of Acts reminds us that revival flows through people who prioritize prayer. The upper room wasn’t a place of hype—it was a place of humility. And from that humility, boldness was born.

If you long to rise with power, return to your knees. Let prayer become your first instinct, not your last resort. In God’s presence, we receive clarity, courage, and power to live on mission.

Prayer Prompt:
Lord, teach me to wait on You in prayer. Unite my heart with Yours and fill me with Your Spirit.
