Act 2:1-13 When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. (2) And suddenly there
came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were
sitting. (3) And divided tongues as of fire appeared to them and rested on each one of them. (4) And they
were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them
utterance. (5) Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men from every nation under
heaven. (6) And at this sound the multitude came together, and they were bewildered, because each one
was hearing them speak in his own language. (7) And they were amazed and astonished, saying, “Are not
all these who are speaking Galileans? (8) And how is it that we hear, each of us in his own native
language? (9) Parthians and Medes and Elamites and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia,
Pontus and Asia, (10) Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyrene, and
visitors from Rome, (11) both Jews and proselytes, Cretans and Arabians—we hear them telling in our
own tongues the mighty works of God.” (12) And all were amazed and perplexed, saying to one another,
“What does this mean?” (13) But others mocking said, “They are filled with new wine.”
Act 2:1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one
place.
1. Put Aside Division For The Betterment Of All
2Ch 5:11-14 And when the priests came out of the Holy Place (for all the priests who were present had
consecrated themselves, without regard to their divisions, (12) and all the Levitical singers, Asaph,
Heman, and Jeduthun, their sons and kinsmen, arrayed in fine linen, with cymbals, harps, and lyres, stood
east of the altar with 120 priests who were trumpeters; (13) and it was the duty of the trumpeters and
singers to make themselves heard in unison in praise and thanksgiving to the LORD), and when the song
was raised, with trumpets and cymbals and other musical instruments, in praise to the LORD, “For he is
good, for his steadfast love endures forever,” the house, the house of the LORD, was filled with a
cloud, (14) so that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud, for the glory of the LORD
filled the house of God.
Not only does it sounds good, it feel good to you, to others and to God.
2. Togetherness Triggers And Releases A Shower Of Anointed Blessings
Psa 133:1-3 A Song of Ascents. Of David. Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in
unity! (2) It is like the precious oil on the head, running down on the beard, on the beard of Aaron,
running down on the collar of his robes! (3) It is like the dew of Hermon, which falls on the mountains of
Zion! For there the LORD has commanded the blessing, life forevermore.
