EXACTLY AS IT WAS TOLD TO ME !!!

oh my goodness this morning I'm reading from the book of Acts chapter 27. It is an intriguing story of the Apostle Paul and he's sharing the gospel and obeying the Lord. I do not wish to cover all of the chapter at this time so I'm going to start at 22. In the beginning of this chapter the Apostle Paul was being held captive and going to stand before Caesar. The weather was bad,Paul tried to warn the men on the ship, but they ignored him about the bad weather that was to come. As they travel they had a very hard time getting to where they needed to go, the Bible refers to it as a great difficulty. To the point to where they were throwing things overboard in order to try to save their own lives. Then something wonderful happened. The Apostle Paul approach the men of the ship and told them in verse 22 and I quote. But now I beg you to be in good spirits and take heart for there will be no loss of life among you, but only for the ship. Verse 23 for this very night there stood by my side an angel of the God to whom I belong, and whom I serve and worship. And he said do not be frightened Paul, it is necessary for you to stand before Caesar, and behold God has given you all those who are sailing with you so keep your courage men for I have faith (that is complete confidence) in God that it will be exactly as it was told to me. In our modern times we have the Holy Scripture full of the words of God. Teaching us how to live, teaching us about the personality of Our Lord, and the price he paid to redeem our souls, and His Holy Spirit comes to us and speaks to us the things he wants us to know, the things he wants us to do, the things he wants us to say. All of this is in the Holy Bible. And I have full confidence and faith that what He says,He will do.Exactly. In our lives we must read the Holy scriptures and get our marching orders on a daily basis. We must pray before we read and ask him to show us what he wants to say and do. Otherwise we spend our entire days wondering through worldly Ventures. These Ventures may be necessary while we're here on this Earth, but may be of no value in eternity. An eternity for which all mankind will someday experience. This 27th chapter of Acts is an awesome story with many points that could be made in comparison to how we should live today. Like the Apostle Paul I beg you to be in good spirits and take heart. 4 in the words of the Holy Bible,are God's power and Grace. You don't have to have an angel to appear to give you this message. That's what Godly men and women and parents do everyday. They give you the message. They give their children the message. Please do not be like the men on this ship, and the men that worked on this ship and continue on your journey, when the Holy scripture is warning you of impending Danger. But if you do, my prayer is that you will encounter an Apostle Paul in your life, and that person will be confident that God will save, and he will do exactly as he said he would.A PRAYER: your heavenly father I have full faith and confidence that the things you asked us to do and the promises you have made to us in your Holy Scripture... You will exactly do! You will not let us down. Those that sincerely search for you and want to believe on you ask to be saved will be born again. You will save their souls. In Jesus name I pray these things. Amen. And thank you sincerely for reading my blog.
