Acts 8:34 The eunuch asked Philip, ‘Tell me, please, who is the prophet talking about, himself or someone else?’
Sometimes when we read our bibles by ourselves, we find it hard to understand things…
I think the times I find it hardest is when I have other things on my mind and I get distracted by worldly thoughts!
God wants us to spend time alone with Him so He can explain things to us. Read and meditate. Pray and wait.
Acts 8:4 Those who had been scattered preached the word wherever they went.
What sort of a witness for God do you think you are?
You don’t have to go round wearing Christian T-shirts like I do. You don’t have to preach on the streets. You don’t have to ensure you never miss a church service…
What you need to do is to love the Lord your God with all you might and love your neighbours!
When you love others it shows and they want to know why – that is your witness!
John 6:34 “Sir,” they said, “always give us this bread.”
How much do you look to God for your daily guidance? How often do you read your bible? How often do you wait on God for a reply from your prayers?
Too often we get caught up in our daily lives and we forget to stop and wait on God – we want instance fixes because modern society is all about providing everything in an instant!
God wants you to stop and think… stop and listen… stop and wait...
John 14:5 Thomas said to him, ‘Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?’
How much do you read your bible? How much do you understand from the bible? How often are you put off because you don’t understand?
The disciples could not understand many things in the beginning, but they stuck with Jesus and waited for Him to explain things!
When you don’t understand something, stop and ask for advice, God is good at explaining things when we ask!
