Like the disciples who followed Jesus, there aren't many people who forsake their jobs, money, and families to follow Him. These disciples followed Jesus with great faith. However, when Jesus was arrested, they all left Him and fled.
What should we do to follow Jesus to the end without leaving Him? When did the disciples become able to handle the work of God that Jesus spoke of? It was after receiving the Holy Spirit on Pentecost. Empowered by the Holy Spirit, the disciples were able to undertake the tasks Jesus had spoken of. Therefore, we, too, must be filled with the Holy Spirit.
