This Week’s Devotional (Mon–Fri)
The Falls Church Anglican | May 17, 2026
Sermon Title    Empowered for Witness
Speaker    Pastor Brian Gurney
Primary Passage    Acts 1:6-14

DAY  1

Awake 

Pastor Reminder: The disciples first expected Jesus to restore an earthly kingdom, but the Lord lifted their eyes higher. He was teaching them that faithfulness is not measured by visible success, but by trust in his wiser plan. 

​

Acts 1:6-8, Jesus turns their hope toward witness and promises power from above.

​

💭 Am I still asking God mainly for the kind of success I can see and control?

​

🙏 Lord, remind us that every good gift comes from You. Teach me to trust Your wisdom more than my own.

 

✅ Try this today: Pause and name one way you have been looking for outward results instead of trusting Christ.

​

This is how your congregation could walk with Sunday throughout the week.
