Expect opposition.
Afternoon. Today is midweek church service. So i had many things around the house i had to do. But i will blog some now. (ACTS CHAPTER 5 VERSES 17 THROUGH 25.)Life gets difficult when you have passion about things. But it also gets tuff when u sit back and just watch. Some were wired to stand up,some to sit down ,and some to actually flee for fear of push back. Look at the disciples in this passage.The disciples faced the leaders of the Jewish church,and were arrested and jailed. The angel of the Lord appeared to them in jail,opened the doors then told them to go to the temple courtyard and preach about life with Christ.(life in Christ).
Then the leaders sent men to get the disciples and when they got there the disciples were gone.The prison was still securely locked down.Someone told them where the disciples were. They were outside in the courtyard teaching the people.The leaders sent more men to go arrest them again.So they did and took them and made them stand before a council.Then told them....."Did not we tell you guys not to preach(strict orders)not to? So Peter and other apostles responded by saying"We must obey God rather than people"
Okay,this is what i mean.Opposition will come and we must be prayed up,and ready to respond.Obey God.Christians are under attack daily in America and the world.Its time to stand. Not be weak. Trust Jesus.He commanded us to speak. Its God's battle. If you were truly called....then who can stand against you and persevere. Preach in the streets,in the pulpit,in the school house,at your family gatherings,at work when the opportunity arises.I can do nothing of my own,but i know who can and will when asked.God bless.
