MORAVIAN DAILY TEXT
Day of Pentecost
Watchword for the week – Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; and there are varieties of services, but the same Lord. 1 Corinthians 12:4-5
Sunday, May 24 – Acts 2:1-21; Psalm 104:24-34, 35b; 1 Corinthians 12:3b-13; John 20:19-23
Lift up your heads, O gates! And be lifted up, O ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in! Psalm 24:7
And suddenly from heaven, there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit. Acts 2:2,4
Holy Spirit, fling wide the doors of our hearts, that your spirit may rush in like a mighty wind. Fill us with your power, renew us with your presence, and send us out to share your love. May we welcome your glory and live by your spirit. Amen.
Belief of the Church
With the whole of Christendom, we share faith in God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. We believe and confess that God has revealed Himself once and for all in His Son Jesus Christ; that our Lord has redeemed us with whole of mankind by His death and His resurrection; and that there is no salvation apart from Him. We believe that He is present with us in the Word and the Sacrament; that He directs and unites us through His Spirit and thus forms us into a Church. We hear Him summoning us to follow Him, and pray Him to use us in His Service. He joins us together mutually so that knowing ourselves to be members of His Body we become willing to serve each other.
