INTRODUCTION: Take your Bibles and turn with me to Acts chapter 1. This morning, I want us to wrap up our series of studies on spiritual disciplines and holy habits, which I've entitled, "Start Your Engines."
JOKE: A young investment banker went out and bought the car of his dreams - a brand-new Ferrari. After paying $500,000, he took it out for a spin and stopped at a red light. While waiting for the light to change, a frail-looking old man on a yellow moped pulled up next to him. The old man looked over at the Ferrari and asked, "What kind of car ya' got there, Sonny?"
The young man replied, "A Ferrari GTO. It cost half a million dollars!"
"Wow, that's a lot of money," said the old man as he tucked his thumbs up against his suspenders. "Why does it cost so much?"

Just then, the light changed, so the banker decided to show the old man just what his car could do. He floored it, and within 30 seconds, the speedometer read 200km/h!

"What in the world could be going faster than my Ferrari?" the young man asked himself. He floored the accelerator and took the Ferrari up to 200km/h. Then, up ahead of him, he saw that it was the old man on the moped! Amazed that the moped could pass his Ferrari, he gave it more gas and passed the moped at 275 ...
