Acts 1:4
On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about.

It was just an ordinary day, a day very similar to any other. An occasion where they were doing what was normal, they were eating. And yet, of course this was no longer ordinary for them. This was one of those times post-resurrection. No day was ordinary in the post-resurrection. It is the same today. Whatever today holds for you, you may think it is predictable, you may think you know what will happen but remember this is the day when Jesus is alive so anything can happen.

This was not a word ‘to GO’ this was ‘to STAY’. It is really important to know the difference. It would appear easy to differentiate. But some people are only wanting to leave, to move on, to go forward and there needs to be people who are wise enough to hear the command of Jesus to wait.

Do you remember the past words the Lord spoke to you about? If you do then you will be able to receive present commands easier for you will place them within the framework of what has already been said.
