WAIT FOR IT

May 25

On May 24th, Rev. Dr. Alvin J. Gwynn Jr. at Historic Leadenhall Baptist Church led a worship service centered on Acts 1:3–9 and Jesus's instruction to the disciples to remain in Jerusalem after the resurrection. Rev. Gwynn’s message, titled "Wait for It," highlighted the spiritual and practical necessity of trusting God's perfect timing in a modern world driven by instant gratification. He preached about the revelation that waiting is not merely a period of inactivity, but a vital season where faith is forged, refined, and ultimately empowered by the promised gift of the Holy Spirit.

Scripture: Acts 1:3-9 (NIV)

Christ Appears to the Disciples

3 After his suffering, he presented himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive. He appeared to them over a period of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God.

4 On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about.

5 For John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.”

6 Then they gathered around him and asked him, “Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?”

7 He said to them: “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority.

8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”

9 After he said this, he was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid him from their sight.
