The Upper Room

In our last post, we pondered on how Easter is a new beginning. If the Friday crucifixion changed the world for the apostles, Easter brought hope.

Between Easter and the Day of Pentecost (When the Holy Spirit came upon them and which is a period of 50 days), the Apostles were primarily Experiencing the Risen Christ and learning from Him. As they waited to be anointed by the Holy Spirit, after Jesus' ascension, they spent their time praying and fellowshipping, gathered in the "upper room" (Acts 1:12-14). They devoted themselves to prayer along with the women, including Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers, preparing for their future Ministry. Preparing for a new beginning and a new reality.

Today, the day after Easter, we too decided to make a new beginning: Reading, Understanding and practicing Gods word from the beginning. Thus, from tomorrow we will focus on the Bible, from Genesis to Revelations, to understand the word through Spiritual Intelligence - insights we all can receive from the Holy Spirit.

We hope you will accompany us on this journey, to learn anew, understand afresh and experience a renewed strength in in our spiritual life.

Our devotional posts will be derived from, what we call Spiritual Intelligence, be based on the Jeremiah Bible as well as our own research. We hope to learn something new every day.

Our first post will explain the term Spiritual Intelligence, and how we can instill it within ourselves, to better understand the Word of God.
