Day 20 - Come, Holy Spirit
Scripture Reading: Luke 11:5-13
5 Then Jesus said to them, “Suppose you have a friend, and you go to him at midnight and say, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread; 6 a friend of mine on a journey has come to me, and I have no food to offer him.’ 7 And suppose the one inside answers, ‘Don’t bother me. The door is already locked, and my children and I are in bed. I can’t get up and give you anything.’ 8 I tell you, even though he will not get up and give you the bread because of friendship, yet because of your shameless audacity[a] he will surely get up and give you as much as you need.
9 “So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
11 “Which of you fathers, if your son asks for[b] a fish, will give him a snake instead? 12 Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? 13 If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”
Prayer Focus:
Today, we revisit a continual prayer for more of the Holy Spirit. Spend time recognizing His very real presence that is with you now. The scripture reminds us the Father will continually give more of the Holy Spirit to those who ask.
Reflection Questions:
On Day 6 you were encouraged to make a reminder you could put in place for the remaining days of the 21-Day Pursuit. This was to remind yourself to daily pray, “Come Holy Spirit and fill me with your presence.” Think about how you can make it a daily practice to pray the simple words, “Come, Holy Spirit”
Join us in-person in the prayer room or online today from 12-1:00 pm for live prayer.
