Acts 1:9-14
New King James Version
Jesus Ascends to Heaven(A)
9 (B)Now when He had spoken these things, while they watched, (C)He was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. 10 And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them (D)in white apparel, 11 who also said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, (E)will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven.”
The Upper Room Prayer Meeting
12 (F)Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day’s journey. 13 And when they had entered, they went up (G)into the upper room where they were staying: (H)Peter, James, John, and Andrew; Philip and Thomas; Bartholomew and Matthew; James the son of Alphaeus and (I)Simon the Zealot; and (J)Judas the son of James. 14 (K)These all continued with one [a]accord in prayer [b]and supplication, with (L)the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with (M)His brothers.
