Waiting for Pentecost 2006

All believers are welcome to come a join the prayer as we wait for Pentecost. The themes for prayer are the Holy Spirit and harvest.

I think this time is significant because it remembers the time that Jesus asked his followers to wait for the Holy Spirit to come (Acts 1). When Jesus' Father then sent the Holy Spirit, it enabled the followers to bring God's kingdom to their neighbourhood, city, region, country and the world (Acts 2 onwards).

You may like to use these scripture readings for inspiration – Ephesians 3: 14- 21 and John 4: 34 – 38. Also, you could use the daily scripture suggested at http://www.prayerweek.com/ in the monthly focus section.
