What Shall I Do?

SCRIPTURE: Acts 2:37 Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, "Men and brethren, what shall we do?"

OBSERVATION: Peter's preaching found its target -- people's hearts. It was a bull's eye. The people there didn't hear a disconnected truth or principle, but they connected themselves to what what shared. They knew that it required some response on their part. They asked, "What shall we do?"

APPLICATION: It is important, whether I am preaching or listening to a preacher, or reading the word of God to ask the question, "What shall I do?" The response, or the 'doing,' made all the difference between a word of condemnation and judgement to one of repentance and life.

PRAYER: Lord, "What shall I do?" Today, what shall I do? With the assignment that You have given me, what shall I do? With the resources You have given me, what shall I do? With the mistakes I have made, what shall I do?
