Acts 5 - Day 716 (link to reading)
Scripture: Acts 5:33-39 Observation: The apostles (Jesus’s messengers/friends/apprentices) had previously been arrested by the religious leaders and told to stop telling others about Jesus. The apostles refused and God continued to manifest His kingdom in and through them. The religious leaders want to kill the apostles for disobeying them. However, a well-respected member intervenes and convinces the religious leaders to reconsider. Application: There is a “pharisee” (religious leader) in all of us. If things don’t go my way, I get upset and devise a scheme to achieve my end goal. However, the question I should be asking myself is, “Am I fighting against God?” Prayer: Heavenly Father, please help me recognize Your plans for my life. Help me to surrender my plans/will to Your will. Comments are closed.
