DEVOTIONAL
WEEK 8 – DISCIPLESHIP
DAY FIFTY-ONE
Paul led people to Jesus by entering into conversations about God and presenting God to people in fresh and relevant ways. He was aware of the existing beliefs in a culture.
Beginning with what was popular, he would pivot and guide people to the truth.
Paul brought the good news of Jesus into the noise and confusion of their discussions. He shared about the resurrection to people who had no answer for death or victory over it.
He complimented people on their religious sincerity and zeal. He noticed that worship was a shared value. The people honored an unknown God, but Paul let them know God has revealed who He is and invited us all into a relationship with our Creator.
God is near to us through Jesus coming to earth and His presence is with us everywhere we go.
God is accessible to all. There next step is repentance and turning to Jesus by faith. Many wanted to hear more, and some decided to follow the Lord. People don’t believe until someone shares with them. The kingdom of God is here, and we can’t stay quiet about it.
Just Choose Hope
HOPE POINT
Shift from being religious to having a radical relationship with God.

God, You will save people from every nation, tongue, and tribe. You understand all the nuances of culture and psychology. Our trust is not in methods, but in You. We want to be wise as serpents and innocent as doves. Jesus, help us to harvest for Your glory we pray. Amen.
