Acts of the Holy Spirit: Chapter 15

main image
The first church had struggles and issues like any other church. As more and more Gentiles came to know Christ, there were some Jewish believers that wanted to impose the Old Testament customs on them. The church needed wise counsel to avoid a serious split in the church. The Holy Spirit worked through Peter, Barnabas and James and the controversy was eliminated. Harmony was restored to the church and the gentile believers were accepted by the Jewish believers.
God is honored when His children follow the Holy Spirit to resolve any issue that threatens the unity in the church. The Holy Spirit is free to work in an environment of unity when it exists in the church. The Gentiles in Antioch rejoiced I’m the encouragement they received. Ask the Lord to put on your heart this week someone you can encourage.

Acts of the Holy Spirit: Chapter 16

The book of Acts is a book of action and here in chapter 16, the Holy Spirit is doing awesome things through Paul. People are coming to faith in Christ, demons are being cast out, prison doors are thrown open, and lives are being changed.
    The Holy Spirit led Paul and Silas to leave Asia and bring the gospel to Europe. Most of  us had ancestors who came from Europe. We need to thank God that our ancestors were influenced by the gospel that came to Europe, sent by the Holy Spirit.
    The Holy Spirit works through willing servants who are sharing their faith in Christ with others. The will of God is fulfilled when we are led by the Holy Spirit and ask Christ to work through our lives to touch others. It is a glorious experience when someone comes to give their life to Christ because of your faithful witness. May we seek to be filled with the Holy Spirit each day and be a faithful witness to what He has done in our life.
