"But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses." Acts 1:8
Pentecost Sunday was amazing. The fire, the wind, the celebration. But now it's Thursday, and regular life has resumed. So what does Pentecost mean for today?

Here's the truth: the Holy Spirit didn't just show up on one dramatic day 2000 years ago and then disappear. The Spirit is still here. Still moving. Still empowering. Still teaching. Still comforting. Still convicting. Still transforming.

The same Spirit who filled the disciples in the upper room wants to fill you today. The same power that emboldened Peter to preach is available to embolden you to witness. The same presence that guided the early church is ready to guide you.

Pentecost wasn't a one-time event. It was the beginning of the Spirit's ongoing work in and through God's people. Every day since then, the Spirit has been active - moving in ordinary people, doing extraordinary things, building the kingdom one transformed life at a time.

You don't need dramatic wind and fire to experience the Spirit's presence. You need openness. Willingness. A heart that says "Come, Holy Spirit. Fill me. Use me. Lead me."

The Spirit is here - not as a memory from the past, but as a present reality. Alive. Active. Waiting to empower you for whatever God is calling you to today.

Where do you need the Holy Spirit's power, wisdom, or comfort today? Ask Him. He's here.

Did you know that we need 120 volunteers at the annual conference? And, right now, only about 25 have signed up to help. If you are coming to the conference or live in or around Maryville, TN, we need YOU! We're looking for volunteers to assist with greeting, parking, first aid, set-up, shuttle drivers, and more. What an incredible help it is when we come together!

This Memorial Day we remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country and lift up in prayer their families and those who served alongside them.

As Wake-up with the MidSouth weekly devotions come to an end this morning, let us remember how the Holy Spirit fell upon the disciples and set the church on (holy) fire! It has been a great privilege to produce Wake-up with the MidSouth and share the many voices from around our beautiful annual conference for three years!!
And now..let us come together one more time to hear an encouraging message and be renewed! Thank you, Jason McIntosh, for sharing the Pentecost message...and thank you, everyone who has lent your voice these past three years! May God bless the MidSouth Annual Conference and the Global Methodist Church. (XOXO - For the faith! , Suzanne Whittaker )

Pentecost is the day everything changed. The disciples had been waiting - Jesus told them to stay in Jerusalem until they received power from on high. And then it happened: wind, fire, the Holy Spirit filling them, languages they'd never learned pouring out, boldness replacing fear.

This is the gift Jesus promised. The Spirit who would teach, guide, comfort, and empower. Not a one-time event, but an ongoing presence. The same Spirit who fell on that first Pentecost is still moving, still filling, still empowering God's people today.

Come, Holy Spirit. Fill us again.

"He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God." Psalm 40:2-3

The imagery is visceral. A slimy pit. Mud and mire. The kind of place where every attempt to climb out just makes you sink deeper. The kind of place where you can't save yourself.

Maybe you know what that feels like. Depression that won't lift. Grief that swallows everything. Circumstances that feel impossible to escape. The pit is real, and it's suffocating. David's testimony is this: God lifted me out.

Not "I pulled myself together." Not "I finally figured it out." God lifted me out. He set my feet on a rock. He put a new song in my mouth. Deliverance doesn't happen all at once, but it does happen. God doesn't leave us in the pit.

Also, David "waited patiently for the Lord." Deliverance wasn't immediate. There was a season of being stuck, of crying out, of wondering if God heard. But patience doesn't mean passivity - it means continuing to call out to God even when rescue feels slow.

And when God delivers, He doesn't just make the pit more bearable. He lifts us out completely. He gives us solid ground. He puts a new song in our mouths - a song of praise that becomes a testimony for others.

Deliverance is grace. It's redemption. It's being restored so we can worship, witness, and live freely again.

If you're in the pit right now, keep crying out. God hears. And when deliverance comes, He'll give you a new song to sing.
