21.16: How to Trust God to Bring Good Things Out of a Bad Situation

Paul’s primary goal was to find people who were  far from God and teach them the Good News of Salvation through Jesus  Christ. Nothing could stop him — not even being publicly humiliated,  flogged and thrown in prison. Here in Acts 16, in Paul’s second missionary journey, we witness how  God takes something bad and turns it around for good. They also meet  some interesting people that Paul helps convert. Let’s dig in… Click on over to my blog to keep reading, where I have a map of Paul's 2nd Missionary Journey as well as lots of links for you to dig deeper.... Jesus said, “Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches.” ~ ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭3:22‬ ‭NLT‬‬ - this is repeated 14 times in scripture. Kind of gives the idea that God wants us to pay attention.  If you want to reap all the benefits of salvation including the 1-way, non-stop ticket to Heaven then… Believe. Repent. Be Baptized. Receive the Holy Spirit.  Pray this prayer humbly and wholeheartedly… “Dear Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I believe You died for my sins. Please forgive me. Right now, I turn from my sins and open the door of my heart and my life to you. I confess You as my personal Lord and Savior. I surrender my whole life to you and I will follow you for the rest of my life. Thank You, Jesus, for saving me. In Jesus' name, Amen.” Jesus is coming back soon! Are you ready?
