Thank you for listening to this message from Damon Thompson Ministries.

You can travel with me if you'd like to. You don't have to. I'm going to just kind of read these

briefly over to Acts 2, eventually Acts 4, but my thought process is I'm hoping we're going to

land over in Genesis 12, Genesis chapter 12. That will be the I'm hoping we're going to land over in Genesis 12

Genesis chapter 12 that will be the bulk of where we're going to be Genesis 12 and

13 so if you'd like to go ahead and and turn there you won't have to make quite as many

turns as as the rest of us so Acts 114 says all of them were united in prayer, gripped with one passion, interceding night and day.

All of them were united in prayer, gripped with one passion, interceding night and day.

Now, we're going to jump over to Acts 2, 42.

These are three, this short verse there in Acts 1 is just part of a real description

of how the community was functioning there within the manifestation of the initial church.

And then Acts 2 is another description. Acts 4 is another description. So although these may seem

repetitive, they're all listed here within the scripture and believe

they're very, very noteworthy. So Acts chapter 2.42 says, every believer was faithfully devoted

to following the teachings of the apostles. Their hearts were mutually linked to one another,

sharing communion and coming together regularly for prayer. A deep sense of holy awe

swept over everyone. I make that thunder happen right when I talk about the deep sense of

holy awe. They didn't teach you that in Bible college, but just keep going. Just track with us.

You'll get there. Okay. Their hearts were mutually linked to one another sharing

communion and coming together regularly for prayer a deep sense of holy awe swept over everyone

and the apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders as I just did for you there.

All the believers were in fellowship as one body, and they shared with one another whatever they had.
