TOPIC: Rousing Send-Offs: The Ascension

Now when He had spoken these things, while they watched, He was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. – Acts 1:9

Recommended Reading: Acts 1:9-11

The disciples had no idea they were about to witness the greatest send-off in history. They were enjoying a leisurely walk with Jesus along the crest of the Mount of Olives. It was early spring, and Jerusalem was awash with sunshine. Jesus told them to wait in Jerusalem until they received the Holy Spirit and to take His message to the world. Then He rose into the air and disappeared into clouds of glory.

As the disciples gazed upward, two angels approached them, saying, “This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven” (Acts 1:11).

So we have our two great assignments—to take the Gospel to the world and to eagerly await the moment of His return. How are you doing when it comes to missions and evangelistic involvement? And how much have you recently thought about the upcoming Rapture? Let’s do both today!

At His Ascension our Lord entered Heaven, and He keeps the door open for humanity to enter.
Oswald Chambers
