Acts 24.1-16 Part II – This is the concluding message to the text began the previous week looking at the character of Paul. He was quite a character and had quite a character, a character that clear in conscience before God and man. Read and give thought to how he lived his life before God and others.
Acts 24.1-16 – Paul’s life has given us pause for reflection on our own walk with Christ. Over the past several weeks we have reviewed his life with a call to be courageous – to take courage. We take courage through the Word. We take courage in our walk. We take courage in our witness. We all face daily opportunities where we need to take courage. We have also seen from Paul that we need to be confident. Be confident because God’s plans are sovereign. Be confident because God’s protection is secure. In this passage we note from Paul’s own testimony the need to be consistent. His life is a great example.
Acts 23.11-35 – Have you ever had a terrible, horrible day? Paul had his share. In this passage we note two things that helped Paul manuever through the mine field of tough days. He found that God’s plans are sovereign and that God’s protection is secure. Hopefully they will help you in those tough days too.
