Stop Asking God to Bless Your Plan | Acts 13 Explained

Send us Fan MailHave you ever asked, “What should I be doing for God?” The heart behind that question may be right — but Acts 13 shows us it might still be the wrong question.Before Barnabas and Saul were sent out, the believers in Antioch were not brainstorming a ministry strategy. They were worshiping, fasting, and ministering to the Lord. This is where it shifts: the mission did not begin with their plan. It began with God’s voice.In this teaching from Acts 13, we look at spiritual authority, surrender, opposition, and the way Paul preached Jesus as the fulfillment of Israel’s story. We also see why God’s power is not given to decorate our agendas, but to accomplish His mission through surrendered servants.Key themes:Why ministry begins with ministering to the LordHow the Holy Spirit sends and empowersWhy spiritual authority requires surrenderWhat opposition reveals about faithfulnessHow Paul preached Jesus from Israel’s storyWhy salvation belongs ultimately to GodJoin the Skool community: https://www.skool.com/estero-ekklesia-1658Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/Support the Podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2394920/support Support the show
