Event: Jesus Taken up to Heaven
S - Scripture
Acts 1 v. 3 To them he presented himself alive after his passion by many
proofs, appearing to them during forty days and speaking the Kingdom of God.
O - Observation
Many proofs. Presentation. Alive. Think about it. Jesus had to present himself.
He had to show his face around. Mark 16 v. 14a, "Afterword he appeared to
the eleven themselves as he sat at the table. " Luke 24 v. 15 (the two men
going to Emmaus), "While they were talking and discussing together Jesus
himself drew near and went with them." In each of the instances, along
with showing himself, he presented proof. He had Thomas touch him. He walked
and had conversation (along with insight) with the two men going to Emmaus. It's
a great model for us. We can't share the great news if we don't present
ourselves, interact with others. Show the proof. It can be by being an
apologetic, or simply stating how God has imprinted your life. 1 Peter 3 v.
15b, "Always be prepared to make a difference to anyone who call you
to account for the hope that is in you. "
A - Application
Am I presenting and proving for Jesus?
P - Prayer
Jesus, Help me to give an account of you to others. Love Will
