Acts 22: Book of Acts Bible Study for Beginners | Welcome to Day 22 of our 30-day journey through the Book of Acts, following 'This Is The Way', a devotional from Gateway Devotions. Today, we explore the theme, "It’s Time to Give Up," written by Nic Lesmeister. This devotional challenges us to surrender our plans to God, trust His will, and follow His direction even when it’s difficult.
What You'll Learn in Today’s Video:
✅ The importance of surrendering to God’s will.
✅ How Paul’s determination in Acts 21 teaches us about faith and obedience.
✅ The role of wise counsel, scripture, and the Holy Spirit in decision-making.
Key Insights from Today’s Devotional:
🔹 God’s Will Over Our Plans: Paul was warned multiple times about going to Jerusalem, yet he remained steadfast, trusting in God's plan above all else.
🔹 Seeking Wise Counsel: While listening to others is valuable, ultimately, we must submit to God's guidance.
🔹 Living in Surrender: Just as Jesus prayed, "Your will be done," we too must release control and trust God's perfect plan.
Practical Application:
👉 Identify a decision or challenge you’re facing. Seek wisdom from scripture and godly mentors. Compare both perspectives and ask God for clarity. Be willing to say, “Lord, Your will be done.”
📖 Further Study: Acts 21 | Matthew 6:5-14 | Acts 28:17-31 | Psalm 32:6-8 | Proverbs 13:10
🎧 Take a moment to reflect: 'Holy Spirit, what are You saying to me today?' Let it settle in your heart, and if you feel led, share your thoughts in the comments!
