Light for My Path Daily Devotiondevotions3

Bible Reading

So when they had come together, they asked him, “Lord, will you at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has fixed by his own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” And when he had said these things, as they were looking on, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him out of their sight. And while they were gazing into heaven as he went, behold, two men stood by them in white robes, and said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into heaven? This Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven.” (Acts 1:6-11 ESV)

Hymn  ELH 389:2-4  A Hymn of Glory Let Us Sing

The holy apostolic band
Upon the Mount of Olives stand.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
And with His followers they see
Jesus’ resplendent majesty.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

To whom the angels, drawing nigh,
“Why stand and gaze upon the sky?
Alleluia! Alleluia!
This is the Savior,” thus they say,
“This is His noble triumph day.”
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

“Again shall ye behold Him so
As ye today have seen Him go,
Alleluia! Alleluia!
“In glorious pomp ascending high
Up to the portals of the sky.”
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

Prayer

Jesus, my Risen and Ascended Lord and Savior, teach me through Your Word to always be ready for Your return, always looking forward to that day with joy and anticipation, knowing that all my sins are forgiven. Amen.
