The Day the Lord Promised Shall Fully Come
Rev. Tse Amable | January 17 2025 | Acts 2:1-4
KEY VERSE: “And when the day of Pentecost was FULLY COME, they were all with one accord in one place.” Acts 2:1-25 (KJV)
MESSAGE:
The day of Pentecost was when Jesus Christ promised his disciples that he would send the Holy Spirit, prophesied by some Old Testament prophets, notably the Prophet Joel (see Joel 2:28-32). Before Jesus Christ ascended back to heaven, he instructed his disciples to tarry or wait for that day (see Luke 24:49 and Acts 1:8). In obedience to the instructions of the risen Lord, a group of devoted disciples (120 in number) went to the Upper Room and waited for that day. As promised, that day came. Note that the Bible states, “The day of Pentecost was FULLY COME.” It did not come PARTIALLY.
Just as this day, which was promised, FULLY CAME, so shall any day of visitation promised to you by the Lord also FULLY COME. It can be the day you receive what the Lord has promised you – your promotion at work, your marriage, the fruit of the womb, etc. Don’t give up hope and expect that day.
It can also be the day Jesus Christ shall return to take away the saints at the rapture. Be careful that you are not left behind. It can also be the day of judgement. Be prepared to render an account of your stewardship to the Judge of all flesh. FEET AND HANDS FOR THE MESSAGE:
Is there any day that the Lord has promised you that you are waiting for? What are you occupying yourself with while you wait for that day?
PRAYER:
Lord Jesus, I thank you that the day you promised to visit and bless me shall fully come. Help me to remain devoted to you and vigilant in prayer so that I will not miss your visitation. Amen!
THERE SHALL BE SHOWERS OF BLESSING.
SHOWERS! BLESSINGS!!
The 365 DAILY BIBLE READING Day 17: Genesis 23-24 — Sarah’s Death and the Marriage of Isaac and Rebekah
DAILY word study: FULLY COME The phrase "fully come" derives from the Greek word sumplēroō (συμπληρόω), meaning "to fill completely" or "to bring to a full measure." This word is used to denote the completion of a period, marking the arrival of an anticipated event in its fullness. In Acts 2:1, "fully come" signifies the fulfilment of the promise of the Holy Spirit, which was both a divine appointment and the culmination of prophetic anticipation (Joel 2:28-32). The day of Pentecost was not an arbitrary moment; it was a deliberate fulfilment of God’s redemptive timeline.
Theologically, "fully come" reflects God's faithfulness to His promises and the divine synchronization of events. It teaches us that God’s plans are executed at the perfect time, neither delayed nor rushed, reinforcing the importance of trusting His timing.
Reflection: What does it mean for us when God's promises "fully come"? It reminds us that His plans are complete, leaving no room for partiality or incompleteness. It challenges us to align our expectations with God’s perfect timing and remain faithful in anticipation.
