Daily Bible Reading – May 29, 2023
(This is being posted early since I am traveling this week). (Acts 18:1-28) I am inspired by the teamwork demonstrated in Luke’s account of Paul’s ministry alongside his associates, Aquila and his wife Priscilla. They had been forced out of Rome because of the persecution of the Jews. They lived and worked with Paul as…

How to Study the Bible by George Müller
I saw more clearly than ever that the first great and primary business to which I ought to attend every day was to have my soul happy in the Lord. The first thing to be concerned about was not how much I might serve the Lord, or how I might glorify the Lord; but how…

(Acts 17:16-33) Paul was alone in Athens, so let’s be his companions, following along and observing (learning from) the activities of this amazing man of God. He was waiting on Silas and Timothy but waiting for Paul never seemed to indicate inactivity. He observed some things that “provoked his spirit within him.” Have you ever…

(Acts 17:1-15, NKJV) We join the second missionary journey at Thessalonica and Berea. An event happened in each of these cities that speaks to the power of the gospel. Paul’s message at Thessalonica: “This Jesus whom I preach to you is the Christ.” As a result, “Some of them were persuaded, and a great multitude…

Freedom is one of the key words that describes America, but many who live in this land of freedom are not truly free. We will look at three types of slavery (bondage), physical, spiritual, and emotional. We…

(Acts 16:1-10; 19:1-10) We will look at Acts 16 in two separate devotionals. It is a wonderful account of church planting, showing both the rewards and sacrifices that accompany a new work for Christ. Paul had a strong desire to open new work, but he needed direction. Luke wrote that Paul, accompanied by Silas and…

(Acts 14, NIV) The activities of Paul and Barnabas on their first missionary journey demonstrate some of the qualities a missionary will need. Effective speech: “They spoke so effectively that a great number of Jews and Greeks believed” (v. 1). This is not necessarily being an expert public speaker. Missionaries speak effectively when they know…

“Ten Questions in the Resurrection Story” [1] “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance to the tomb?” (Mark 16:3). This question represents the inadequacy of our human response to life’s problems when God is waiting to give us His solutions! [2] The angel asked the women: “Why do you seek the…
