That they may receive the promise of the father, who is the spirit of truth and been clothed with power of God, to change things, perform miracles, walk in signs and wonders, their life change immediately

Jesus told them to stay awake and wait.
Jesus and the disciples returned to Jerusalem one last time together. There they may have met in the upper room where they had shared Passover and where Jesus had instituted the Lord's Supper. He told the disciples to wait until they had been clothed with power from on high, until the Holy Ghost came upon them--the gift Jesus promised just prior to His death.
After Jesus was crucified god sent the holy spirit to be with the disciples always in his place.Roman Catholic Answer:The day is called Pentecost. Right before his Ascension, Jesus told the disciples to wait in Jerusalem to receive the Holy Spirit. After that they were empowered by the Holy Spirit and filled with "all knowledge" to go out and convert the world.
It was Jerusalem.
Pentecost, which literally means 50 or it is 50 days after the Passover and First Fruits. Jesus returned to visit his Disciples after his resurection and promised to wait for the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit did not come then. Jesus disappeared in a cloud. The Holy Spirit came upon the disciples 50 days later when they were praying together in Jerusalem.
Luke 24:49 - "Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high."Acts 1:4, 5 - And being assembled together with them, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the Promise of the Father, "which," He said, "you have heard from Me; for John truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now."[NKJV]
Acts 1:4 - And being assembled together with them, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the Promise of the Father, "which," He said, "you have heard from Me; [NKJV]
Jesus' commandment to his disciples: Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. (Matthew 29.18) And Jesus' promise to his disciples: And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me. (Acts 1.4)
50 days is not correct. They were in the upper room 7 days or less. there were 50 days from the time of the crucifixion or (passover) until the day of Pentecost. Jesus was in the lower parts of the earth for 3 days, The Bible also says that he was with the disciples for 40 days. 43-50 = 7. It could be less because the bible is not absolutely clear when the 40 days began that Jesus was with His disciples, most believe that it was from the time that He rose from the dead, but we can take into account that Jesus had not yet ascended to the Father, and had only appeared to His disciples 3 different times the first week after he was raised from the dead, and it was also a sabbath days journey from the place that Jesus ascended from heaven and told the disciples to go to Jerusalem and wait for the promise of the Holy Ghost, but a sabbath day's journey is less than 3/4 of a mile, so realistically, it is at most 7 days, and at least one day.
After his resurrection, Jesus appeared to his disciples, taught them, and ate with them. He also commissioned them to spread his teachings to all nations. Before his ascension, he instructed them to wait for the Holy Spirit to empower them for their mission.
There is no particular record of this in the Bible. When Jesus healed Peter's mother in law, (Matthew 8.14), the Bible says: And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her: and immediately she arose and ministered unto them. (Luke 4.39) She was simply being a good host. Jesus and the disciples were in her house and she was now able to wait on them as Jesus had healed her, so she did.
