SERMONS | 1 - The Power To Soar
84 Days Of Soaring
WEEK TWELVE – PERSEVERANCE
DAY 82 – A Snake Bite
Where To Start
Read Acts 28:1-10 and then watch the DAY EIGHTY-TWO video.
Paul gathered a pile of brushwood and, as he put it on the fire, a viper, driven out by the heat, fastened itself on his hand.
DEVOTIONAL
WEEK 12 – PERSEVERANCE
DAY EIGHTY-TWO
Unwanted events are not polite and do not ask you if this is a good time to enter into your life.
After narrowly surviving a fierce storm and their boat being shipwrecked, the apostle Paul made it safely to shore. Then a poisonous snake bit him, and the next trial began.
Challenges are not always evenly spaced in your life. Successive attacks can wear you down.
There is a saying “when it rains, it pours.” The islanders expected Paul to die, but God completely spared him from all harm.
The people then thought Paul must be a god. Everywhere you go, you will be representing God and helping people know who He is. Snake bites become open doors and tragedies can lead to open hearts.
People want to talk about and process current events. Offering a Biblical perspective that is full of real hope is powerful. God transforms lives in very unlikely ways and through undesired circumstances.
Just Choose Hope
HOPE POINT
Never be complacent in your walk with God.
REFLECTION QUESTIONS
What happened and how did the islanders react?
Why is it important to stay alert?
How do you put on your spiritual armor daily?
PRAYER
Our God and Protector, may we trust You even when there are additional and unexpected twists to our story. We long to be with You in heaven. Until then, we have patient endurance. The Holy Spirit comforts us. We fix our eyes on Jesus, the Author and Perfector of our faith. Use our trials to make us more like You, Lord, we ask. Amen.
