Taking Risks
Daily Bible Reading - Numbers 7; Psalm 23; Acts 27
Today’s Key Passage - Acts 27:9-25
The only way captains could navigate a ship in ancient times was by looking at the stars. When the sky was overcast, sailing became very dangerous if not impossible. The stormy season began in September, so by November, sailing was almost unheard of in those days. The event in our key passage today occurred in October after the Day of Atonement, so they were right in the middle of the “questionable” time to be sailing. Paul warned the men that sailing was going to be dangerous, and told them that, “[the] voyage is going to be disastrous and bring great loss to ship and cargo, and to our own lives also.” The pilot and the owner of the ship, however, wanted to sail and the centurion chose to listen to that advice instead of listening to Paul. They decided to take a risk and set sail despite Paul’s warnings and despite the fact that they knew this time of year would make sailing dangerous. This decision proved to be disastrous as a violent storm hit and put the entire crew in grave danger. Paul then told the crew that they had a choice to make – they could continue down their destructive path of doing things their own way or they could listen to Paul’s advice and start putting their faith in God. If not for the grace and mercy of God, the entire ship and its crew would have surely been destroyed.
When we choose to sin against God, we also take a risk. We know about the warnings – we can read them every day in His Holy Scriptures. We know what God tells us to do and how He tells us to live our lives because repeatedly in the Bible we can see God’s message to us as clearly as Paul’s message was to the ship’s pilot. Sometimes, though, even given all of God’s warnings, we still choose to depart from his leading and go our own way. In those moments when we choose to ignore God’s directions, we are taking a huge risk. We risk our health – sometimes our physical health, and other times our emotional, spiritual, or relational health. When we choose to disobey God, we put ourselves and others in harm’s way. It should not surprise us, then, when storms come up and rage against us in those times when we have chosen to disregard all the signs and set sail down our own path of destruction. Like the men on the boat, we have a choice to make. We can continue to go our own way and disregard God, assuring our destruction, or we can start listening to His warnings and put our faith and trust in Him. We can come to realize that God’s instructions for our lives are there for a reason, and that He only has our own best interests at heart. When we decide to start listening to God, His great mercy and grace will save us from destruction.

Dealing With Problems
Daily Bible Reading - Numbers 3,4; Acts 25
Today’s Key Passage - Acts 25:1-22
Festus took over for Felix as the Roman governor of Judea, and he had a problem. Just three days into his position, he found out that he had a man named Paul in his prison who had been there for two years. He also found out that the Jewish leaders wanted this man dead. Festus was the new guy in town. He was new to his position and the last thing he wanted to do was ruffle any feathers in the very beginning of his term in office, but the problem was not going to go away. Something had to be done about Paul and about the Jews who wanted him dead. He called them all together to hear the charges, and by his own later admission to Agrippa, he was baffled. He told Agrippa that when he convened the court and allowed Paul’s accusers to speak, “they did not charge him with any of the crimes I had expected. Instead, they had some points of dispute with him about their own religion and about a dead man named Jesus who Paul claimed was alive. I was at a loss how to investigate such matters”. Since Festus did not know what to do, he first wanted to send Paul back to Jerusalem, but Paul refused to go because he was a Roman citizen. Therefore, Festus agreed to send Paul on to Caesar to have his case heard. Ultimately, Festus simply did not know how to deal with the problem of Paul and therefore wanted to let someone else take care of it.
How often in our lives does the temptation come for us to do the same thing? As problems arise for us, we often do not know exactly how to handle them and we can easily be tempted not deal with them at all. When we see a non-believer who does not know the Way, we can be tempted to “bury our heads in the sand” and not talk to them about Christ because it might be uncomfortable. When we see a fellow believer sinning, we can be tempted to “bury our heads in the sand” and not confront them on their sins because we want to maintain the peace. Just like Festus, we can be tempted to try to send others on their way to allow someone else to deal with the problem, but none of this is biblical. Being a follower of Christ does not afford us the opportunity to “bury our heads in the sand”. Jesus was very specific when He told us how to deal with problems, and regardless of the situation we are called to deal with problems head on. Having an argument with your spouse? Deal with the problem head on and have a discussion with her. Feeling slighted by a friend? Deal with the problem head on and explain to him how you feel. See a brother or sister in Christ sinning? Deal with the problem head on and go to him or her to point out the sin in a loving way.
So why is all of this important? Why are we not to “bury our heads in the sand” and not deal with the problems that come up in life? Often the answer to that lies in the aftermath. If you see a non-believer and fail to talk to them about salvation, you are essentially condemning them to eternal separation from God. If you see a fellow Christian sinning and do not say anything, you are not showing them the love of Christ and in effect are actually “hating” them. If you are having an argument with your spouse and you do not try to work it out, seeds of anger and hostility are sown in your heart toward her. If you feel slighted by your friend and you do not explain how you feel, seeds of animosity are sown in your heart toward him. Eventually, these seeds will grow, fester, and become a much bigger problem in your relationships. While it might be uncomfortable for us in the short term, the long-term benefits to our relationships of dealing with problems head on are huge. Do not be like Festus. Do not look for ways to avoid dealing with issues when they arise. Deal with them constructively and with love and watch your relationships with others and with God grow beyond your wildest dreams.

Keeping a Clear Conscience
Daily Bible Reading - Numbers 1,2; Acts 24
Today’s Key Passage - Acts 24:1-16
The high priest Ananias and some of the elders went to Caesarea to bring their charges against Paul to Governor Felix. Specifically, they were claiming three charges against Paul – that he was a troublemaker who incited riots, that he was one of the leaders of an unauthorized religious sect, and that he tried to desecrate the temple. When Paul was given a chance to defend himself before Felix, he did so and plainly stated that the charges against him were false. Paul stated that he strives, “always to keep my conscience clear before God and man.”
What does it mean to keep a clear conscience before God and man and why is it important? We can start with taking a look at keeping a clear conscience before God. We do this by following His ways and living the way He wants us to live. We keep our conscience clear before God by staying away from sin and unrighteousness. Obviously we are not perfect, so when we do sin we immediately confess that sin to Him and ask for forgiveness. In addition, we repent (or turn away from) that sin and turn to God. Ultimately, we keep our conscience clear through our faith in Jesus Christ. Through His actions and through His mercy and grace we can live in right relationship to God and keep our conscience clear before him.
What about keeping our conscience clear before man? We do this by treating others the way we should treat them. We do this by not lying, deceiving, or cheating others and by showing them the love of Christ. We keep our conscience clear before man not by our own efforts, but by the actions of Christ who lives within us and gives us the power to treat others better than ourselves. Without His help, we would constantly fail in this area and we would never be able to keep our consciences clear before man, but He gives us the power to do just that.
So why is all of this important? Why should we strive to keep our conscience clear before God and man? Because guilt is a tool that the enemy uses against us. When we do not keep our conscience clear we feel guilty, and often that guilt stops us in our tracks and keeps us from fulfilling our mission for God. How many times do relationships fail (either relationships with God or with others) because of guilt? When people feel guilty, they tend to want to run away from the relationship causing it to crumble. Guilt can be a powerful thing, and we must fight it at every turn, and the most complete way to avoid guilt is to keep our conscience clear before God and man. Fortunately for us, Jesus provided us a perfect model to do this in Matthew 22:37-40 - “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” When we keep these two commandments, we will keep our consciences clear and never have to worry about guilt getting in our way.

The Right Place at the Right Time
Daily Bible Reading - Leviticus 26,27; Acts 23
Today’s Key Passage - Acts 23:12-24
Some of the men from the Sanhedrin wanted to kill Paul. They viewed Paul as a threat, and they vowed not to eat or drink until Paul was dead. They came up with a plot against him, and planned to attack him while traveling to stand before the commander of the Roman army. But God had different plans in mind. God was watching over Paul and protecting him. Paul’s nephew heard about the plot to kill him because God put him in the right place at the right time. Paul’s nephew went to Paul to tell him about the plot to kill him, and Paul instructed his nephew to tell the commander what he had heard. When Paul’s nephew went to the commander, the commander could have dismissed the boy’s story, but instead God moved him to listen and to act. The commander came up with a plan to protect Paul and get him to Governor Felix and away from the threat.
Time and time again in the Bible we see that God has perfect timing. He knows when and where to act to produce the best results. We also see time and time again that God does a lot of things in the background that we do not even know about to protect us. Paul did not know about this plot against him and did not even know to be praying to God to thwart it, but God already knew. He knew to put Paul’s nephew in the right place at the right time to hear about the plot. God moved Paul’s nephew not to just sit on the information he had but to actually take it to Paul. God moved the commander to listen to Paul’s nephew and to move Paul out of harm’s way. God did all of this in the background without Paul even knowing what the outcome would be. In Jeremiah 29:11, we read, “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” God’s plans for us will not be thwarted. He will use His perfect timing and whatever means necessary to ensure we are fulfilling his ultimate plans for us, even when we are completely unaware that this is going on in the background. How many times has God moved in the background of your life and saved you from pain without you even knowing it? How many times has he placed people in exactly the right place at the right time for your benefit without you even having to ask? Never underestimate God’s love for you and all that He does to protect you, and always remember the words from Romans 8:31, “If God is for us, who can be against us?”

Sharing Our Testimony
Daily Bible Reading - Leviticus 25; Psalm 25-26; Acts 22
Today’s Key Passage - Acts 22:1-22
Paul had been worshiping in the temple when he was wrongly accused of bringing a Gentile named Trophimus into the temple with him. A riot ensued which was eventually broken up by a Roman guard who arrested Paul. While under arrest, Paul asked the commander for the right to speak to the Jews, and the commander gave him permission. Today’s key passage is what Paul chose to say to these Jews who wanted to kill him. As in many other similar circumstances, Paul could have spent his time stating his own defense or he could have pleaded for his release, but instead Paul took this opportunity to share his personal testimony.
The truth is, we will never know when the opportunity might present itself for us to present our own personal testimony. It could happen at any time. We might be having a simple conversation on a plane or in a restaurant when the opportunity comes for us to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ, so we must be prepared. When we read today’s passage, we can gain a lot of insight into the best way to share our faith. We notice that Paul started with his background. Since he was speaking to a Jewish crowd, he spoke in Aramaic, which got their attention. He told them about his history as a devout Jew prior to his conversion. Had he not done this, many of the people likely would not have even given him a chance to speak, but because Paul established a common ground with his listeners they heard what he had to say. Finding common ground with the person we are talking to is one of the best ways to begin the process of sharing our faith.
Once Paul had established his background for the listeners, he presented his own personal testimony about his encounter with Jesus and explained to them how he came to his faith in Christ. Our personal testimony of exactly what God has done for us is often our most powerful message to others. We can quote the Bible to people (which helps in certain situations) or we can tell what God has done for others (which can also help in certain situations), but when a person is making the decision of whether or not to follow Christ often the most powerful thing he can hear is how God changed your life. Even if our personal story is not as dramatic as Paul’s, we can still talk about our personal encounter with Jesus.
One final note about today’s passage – regardless of what our testimony is or how well we present it, whether or not others accept it is not under our control. Some people will hear you, while others will not. You will notice that even after telling the Jews about his personal encounter with a resurrected Jesus, they still wanted to kill him as soon as Paul mentioned the Gentiles. Our responsibility is to present to others the true Gospel. Our responsibility is to share with others what God has done for us. Our responsibility is to faithfully present the Word of God. Everything else, including whether or not the people who hear us will accept Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior, is up to God. When we do our part, and let God do His, we will never go wrong.

A Single-Minded Life
Daily Bible Reading - Leviticus 20-22; Acts 20
Today’s Key Passage - Acts 20:17-35
Twenty years ago, a movie called City Slickers hit the box office for the first time. It is the story of a man name Mitch played by Billy Crystal who goes on a two-week adventure at a dude ranch in response to his mid-life crisis. The movie is a secular film, but as I read today’s passage I was reminded of a scene near the end of the movie in which Mitch is talking with the grizzled older cowboy named Curly, played by Jack Palance. Mitch was looking for the secret of life when the following dialog takes place between the two characters (edited slightly for content):
Curly: Do you know what the secret of life is? [holds up one finger] This.
Mitch: Your finger?
Curly: One thing. Just one thing. You stick to that and the rest means nothing.
Mitch: But, what is the “one thing?”
Curly: That’s what you have to find out.
In the passage we read today, Paul says, “I consider my life worth nothing to me, if only I may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the gospel of God’s grace.” That was Paul’s “one thing”. Paul lived a single-minded life – the one thing that was most important to him was preaching the Gospel of Christ. For him, everything else in his life was worth nothing.
In today’s society, a lot of different things compete in our lives to become the “one thing”. The world will tell you that money, fame, power, success, fun, or recognition are the most important things in life, but as followers of Christ we know better. We know that there is only one true thing (God) and only one true goal (to tell others about Christ). Like Paul, we too can live a single-minded life. We too can keep our focus on “one thing”. We too can come to understand that everything else in this world means nothing.

Shaking The Dust
Daily Bible Reading - Leviticus 15-17; Acts 18
Today’s Key Passage - Acts 18:1-11
Paul left Athens and went to Corinth, which at the time was the most important city in Greece. While there, he continued to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the people and spoke the truth to them. The Jews in Corinth who were sinning did not want to hear the truth, though, so they “opposed Paul and became abusive“. Paul was once again being persecuted for speaking the truth, and he “shook out his clothes in protest” to the Jews. Paul, who was arguably the best preacher of all time, faced rejection like this often. As good as he was at preaching the Gospel, there were times when he simply could not get his message across to people. Sometimes the people he faced had hardened their hearts to the point where they were simply unable to hear the truth in his message. More often than not, sinners “hate the one who reproves in court and despise him who tells the truth.” (Amos 5:10), so Paul would find himself being abused and persecuted. In this case, Paul followed an important lesson taught by Jesus himself and “shook out his clothes in protest”.
Jesus knew all about rejection. He constantly faced rejection from others because of his teaching, and we can learn an important lesson in how He handled that rejection. When people asked Jesus to leave a town, He did not try to argue with them. He simply left and moved on. When the rich young man refused Jesus offer to sell everything and follow Him, Jesus did not chase after him and try to convince him. Jesus simply let him leave. When Jesus was sending out his disciples to serve, He taught them this important lesson. He told them, “If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that home or town.” (Matthew 10:14).
When we speak the truth in love, we will sometimes face rejection. When we attempt to lead someone to Christ, we might not immediately succeed. When we attempt to correct another person who is sinning, we might not immediately succeed. We might even be persecuted for our efforts – probably not physically but emotionally. We might be mocked and ridiculed by others. We might be called judgmental for speaking the truth. People might use our past sins prior to being saved against us or even make up lies about us to try to diminish our witness. The fact is that not everyone we share the Gospel with will listen, and Jesus’ lesson is for us to go elsewhere and “shake the dust”. There are many times when we might be tempted to chase after these people, but more often than not, that will only lead them further away from God. When we try to “hold onto the dust” of others, it will only serve to discourage us and might even make us less likely to share our faith in the next situation. Do not let a little rejection come between you and your service to Christ. Remember His words to Paul – “Do not be afraid; keep on speaking, do not be silent. For I am with you, and no one is going to attack and harm you”.

Having a Heart Like God’s
Daily Bible Reading - Leviticus 13,14; Acts 17
Today’s Key Passage - Acts 17:16-23
While Paul was in Athens waiting for Silas and Timothy to join him, we read that he was, “greatly distressed to see that the city was full of idols”. The word “distressed” is translated from the Greek word “paroxysm” which means a “sudden, violent emotion”. Paul was in a place filled with “religious” people, yet none of them really knew God. None of them had a personal relationship with the one true God and none of them knew anything about Jesus Christ. These people, though “religious” on the outside, were not saved. This gave Paul a “sudden, violent emotion”, likely a mixture of anger and sadness. This is relatively strong language – you will note that Paul was not just a little angry or a little sad. This scene caused his emotions to erupt inside of him. Why was it that he had such a strong reaction to these lost souls? Paul felt this way because he had a heart like God’s.
When God sees lost people, it grieves Him. When He sees people far away from him, He feels a “sudden, violent emotion”. God created man for fellowship. He loves each of us – from the “best” person on earth to the “worst” person on earth – exactly the same. He loves us with all of His heart, but since He is a perfect God and a just God, He cannot allow sinners to go unpunished. Anything less would simply not work for God. That is where Jesus comes in – He took this punishment for us so that we will not have to in the end. In this way, the followers of Jesus are seen by God as perfect and without sin, and they are reconciled with Him. For everyone who has not accepted Jesus as his personal Lord and Savior, they are not reconciled to God. They cannot be in His holy presence all alone with nothing but their sins – they are lost, and this grieves God greatly. Paul felt that same type of grief. We should all strive to feel that same type of grief. When you see someone far from God, how does it make you feel? Are you a little sad about it? Are you a little angry about it? Does your heart erupt with a “sudden, violent emotion”? As each of us grows in Christ and we continue to change, we will grow closer and closer to having a heart like God’s. We will begin to feel angry over the things that make Him angry. We will begin to feel happiness over the things that make Him happy. We will begin to feel grief over the things that grieve Him. Ask God today to give you a heart like His. Ask Him to help you feel pain for the things that bring Him pain and joy for the things that bring Him joy.

Letting the Holy Spirit Lead
Daily Bible Reading - Leviticus 10-12; Acts 16
Today’s Key Passage - Acts 16:6-15
Paul, Silas, Timothy, and Luke had set out on their missionary journey. They initially intended to go into Asia, but the Holy Spirit told them not to go there. Then they wanted to go into Bithynia, but once again, the Holy Spirit blocked their access. Finally, Paul had a vision telling him to go to Macedonia, and immediately they headed in that direction. Once in Macedonia, they preached the Gospel to Lydia and she believed. Then they drove out an evil spirit from a young girl and were imprisoned where they led the jailer to the Lord. The apostles were in the right place at the right time because they were following the leading of the Holy Spirit. God had a plan for them and wanted them in Macedonia. If they had not been listening to the Holy Spirit, they likely would have gone into Asia or Bithynia and would have missed these opportunities to bring people to Christ.
Sometimes we might find it difficult to let the Holy Spirit lead. As humans, most of us have a natural desire for freedom and tend to like to do things our own way. Most of us want to be the one driving the bus and deciding which direction we will take, but the Holy Spirit wants to lead us. He wants to show us which paths to follow and which ones to avoid. God has great plans for all of us – plans for good not only for us but also for the Kingdom. Our fulfillment of these plans is dependent on us being willing to follow His lead through the Holy Spirit. We can choose to ignore Him and set out in our own direction, but we do so at our own peril. If we fail to heed the leading of the Holy Spirit, we may find ourselves in bad situations or we might miss important opportunities that would advance the Kingdom of God. This is why it is so important that we learn to listen to the soft voice of God as he gently nudges us in the right directions in life. When we let the Holy Spirit lead us, we can be sure that the destination will be a good one.

Resolving Conflicts Biblically
Daily Bible Reading - Leviticus 7-9; Acts 15
Today’s Key Passage - Acts 15:1-21
The early Christian church was facing a conflict. Some of the early Christians believed that the Gentiles needed to adhere to Jewish law (including circumcision) before they could become Christians. Other early believers did not think it was necessary to become Jewish before becoming a Christian, and therefore thought circumcision was not necessary. If the conflict was not resolved, the early Christian church could have become split into two sects and therefore would have lost a lot of its momentum along the way. In an effort to resolve the differences between them, the two groups came together in Jerusalem to discuss the matter and to determine where the church would stand on the issue. For the first step in resolving the conflict, they allowed both sides to make their case. The converted Pharisees believed in a legalistic religion and wanted to require circumcision for all Gentile believers. Then Peter, Paul, and Barnabas spoke from their point of view and told of their experiences with the Gentiles being filled with the Holy Spirit despite not being circumcised. Finally, James stepped in and compared both arguments to what was said in the Scriptures to determine which direction was more biblically based. In the end, the decision was made that the Gentile believers would not need to be circumcised prior to conversion to Christianity.
Today, when we are faced with conflicts we should resolve them in the same way. Our first step should be to allow both sides to state their beliefs clearly and in an open way. Just because someone’s opinion is different from ours does not give us the right to keep him from expressing it. We should hear him out and allow him to speak his mind. We can then seek the counsel of others who are spiritually mature, such as a Pastor, to get guidance on the issue. Finally, the most important step is to compare both sides of the argument to the Bible. We must always consult God’s Word when resolving conflict, since God is the ultimate authority. When we have difficulties discerning who is correct, the Bible will light the way of the truth. Everyone has his own opinion about what is right and what is correct, but ultimately what matters the most is what God’s Word says. When we seek God’s Word in resolving a conflict, we will always make the best choice.
