THE UPPER ROOM MANDATE – UNTIL THE POWER FALLS (5)
Times Of Refreshing Daily Devotional
Date: Sunday, 8 June 2025
Topic: The Upper Room Mandate – Until the Power Falls (5)
Focus: When the Power Falls
Message:
Before revival hits the streets, it starts in the secret place. Before the noise of Pentecost came the silence of the Upper Room—where a remnant waited, prayed, and refused to leave until power fell. This devotional series is not for the casual—it’s for the consecrated. For those who say, “Lord, I will wait until You come again in power.”
📖 Key Verse:
Acts 1:13–14 (NIV) – “They all joined together constantly in prayer, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.”
Devotional:
They waited. They prayed. They tarried. And then… the heavens responded. Suddenly, a sound like a mighty rushing wind filled the room, and tongues of fire rested on each one of them. The Holy Spirit came—not just to visit, but to indwell, empower, and commission. This is what happens when we wait until the power falls: Heaven invades earth. Ordinary people become bold witnesses. Fear is replaced with fire. The Upper Room becomes a launching pad for global transformation.
📖 Scripture Reading:
- Acts 2:2-4 – “Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house… All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit…”
- Zechariah 4:6 – “‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ says the Lord Almighty.”
💧 Refreshing for the Day:
Pentecost was not a historical moment to admire—it’s a blueprint to follow. God still responds to hunger. He still fills rooms and hearts with His Spirit. But He’s looking for those who will wait, watch, and war in prayer until Heaven touches earth again. Beloved, the world doesn’t need another performance—it needs power. And power falls on altars soaked with persistent prayer. So, you weren’t made for a powerless Christian life. The Holy Spirit lives in you to empower you! Expect a fresh infilling as you seek Him today. Stay Refreshed!
✨ Note This:
When you tarry, you carry.
🛡️ Responsibility:
- Spend time today thanking God for the gift of the Holy Spirit.
- Ask Him to baptize you afresh with fire, boldness, and clarity of purpose.
🙏 Prayer:
Holy Spirit, fall on me again. I yield. I surrender. I hunger for more. Let Pentecost happen in me. Use my life to bring revival to my generation. In Jesus’ name, Amen!
🔥 Prophetic Declaration:
I carry fire! I am filled with the Holy Spirit and power! Revival begins with me. I will not live a powerless life—Pentecost is my portion! Alleluia!

Acts 1:4-5; 13-14, Luke 24:49, Zach 4:6
