What is God saying to you?

But when Paul perceived that one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, “Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee; concerning the hope and resurrection of the dead I am being judged!” And when he had said this, a dissension arose between the Pharisees and the Sadducees; and the assembly was divided. For Sadducees say that there is no resurrection—and no angel or spirit; but the Pharisees confess both. Then there arose a loud outcry. And the scribes of the Pharisees’ party arose and protested, saying, “We find no evil in this man; but if a spirit or an angel has spoken to him, let us not fight against God.” Now when there arose a great dissension, the commander, fearing lest Paul might be pulled to pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down and take him by force from among them, and bring him into the barracks. But the following night the Lord stood by him and said, “Be of good cheer, Paul; for as you have testified for Me in Jerusalem, so you must also bear witness at Rome.” (Acts 23:6-11)

 The State may say we are ok. The County may say it. However, individual believers must go before God and trust Him with what He has for them. Maybe, just maybe He wants us to show the world that it's not about being seen, but to show the Spirit still speaks. 


Paul followed the Spirit, even against the wants and desires of his closest believing friends. He knew he would get to Rome....through Jerusalem!(Acts 20:22-24)


At times we witness by acting, other times by not acting. Does God have a plan for you, despite the criticism or even advice of others? God will equip us to do whatever He says to do....even if it is just a quiet confidence in doing what He says. . . even if
everyone else disagrees!


What is God saying to you? Just know it is God.....
