Answer from what the passage actually says — stay in the text.
What does this show me about God?
- Jesus tells his friends they will get power when the Holy Spirit comes. What does that tell you about how God helps people?
What does it show me about people — and about me?
- The friends stand staring up at the sky until somebody asks them why. Why do you think they just stood there?
What will I obey this week?
- Jesus says to start telling people right where you are. Where is "right where you are" for you this week?
Who will I tell?
- Who is one person, near you, who hasn't heard about Jesus yet?
Grow
Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).
Pray
God, Jesus did not leave his friends on their own — he promised them your Holy Spirit. Thank you that I am not on my own either. Help me tell people about Jesus wherever I am.
