Last Week we looked at Thomas

    Doubt to faith

    Personal Revival

Acts 1:3-11

So from now till 10 days before Pentecost, May 19th this year. Jesus walked, talked, and lived with the disciples.

In this time he was with them, teaching them, they had the opportunity to just Abide or to wait patiently with the king of kings

Abide

1a: to bear patiently

b: to endure without yielding 

2: to wait for

3: to accept without objection

Jesus remind us the need to abide with him

John 15:4

The word remain here in John 15:4 is

men'-o

to stay (in a given place, state, relation or expectancy): - abide, continue, dwell, endure, be present, remain, stand, tarry (for), X thine own.

To abide to wait patiently for what ever God wants to do in us and through us

John 15:1-12

Reminding us to remain and obey

He tells us in

John 16:31-33

Remain in him through all that is going on Stay Rooted in Christ

A Tree with deep roots verses surface roots

Dig in and wait upon the Lord

Isaiah 40:27-31

Do not forget

Those who wait

Those who abide in the Lord

Those who are ROOTED in Him 

Will: Find new strength, Soar, Run and not Weary, Walk and not Faint

He is with you. Stay with him

Abide or wait

Obey

Jeremiah 42:1-6

He prays, warns, and they do not change

We must be a people who hear and obey even when its hard to hear.
