Acts 2:1-4
[1]And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
[2]And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
[3]And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
[4]And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Acts 4:31
[31]And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.
MEMORY VERSE: Jude 1:20 “But ye beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost”

CENTRAL TRUTH: The Holy Spirit came upon the early church in the place of prayer.

Men of God in the past got to the place of power of the Holy Spirit and Sustained the power through prayer James 5:17-17 Elijah regulated times and season through prayer. Daniel 6:10, Daniel was a man of prayer, he became untouchable.
