Central Assembly Of God- Yakima

Acts 4:33 says that the grace of God was powerfully at work in all of the believers. Today we will learn what it means to walk in the grace of God.

Although God wants everyone to follow Him, He will never force obedience. Christ never commanded His disciples to go into the world and force people to follow him...instead he commanded them to share the good news and present a better way of living.

The believers pray for more of the Holy Spirits power so that they will remain strong in the face of opposition.

Now that the apostles had the power that Jesus promised to give them they immediately started doing the job that Jesus had given them to do. They preached the good news and gave what they had to those in need.

The Church that Christ built was successful because they were unified and did everything in the power of the Holy Spirit

The Early Church conducts their first business meeting.

The Church that we read about in the book of Acts was birthed in prayer and prayer was sustained through prayer.

The size of our God dictates the size of our miracles. We must believe that God is bigger than our problems.

We will look at six characteristics that are present in every true revival
