The Final Journey

DAY 5 OF 17

Armored Transport

Some men take a vow of starvation, stating they won’t eat or drink until they have killed Paul. They must have grown quite hungry as they waited for him, who instead was whisked away to another town after word of the vow leaked.

Read: Acts 23:12-35(NLT)

Explore the Theme: Paul is stuck in a situation where a religious dispute has landed him at the mercy of the local government authorities. He uses wisdom and tact to avoid an ambush. Is there anything God has brought to your attention lately that is calling for wisdom and tact? In what ways does God provide for Paul during this experience?

Ask God: Paul lived a life that garnered favor with both God and men. Take a moment to ask God what aspects of your life he is pleased with. Also examine any areas in your life that God is asking you to work on. What did God reveal?

Live it Out: From the exploration above, what practical steps can you take to grow in the areas God revealed? Write these down, and talk with a close friend or someone from your community group who can help encourage you along this growth path.

About this Plan

The Final Journey

(Part four of a four part journey through the Books of Acts.) Even in (and especially in?) hard times, God is present and is working to build His Church. We can find encouragement in this. When circumstances force us to pivot, we don’t have to lose heart - God is with us.
