Come Follow Me- Daily Dose

Today we wander back into last week's CFM block to better set the stage for this week. We get the chance to see that the thing that motivates all that Paul does is a burning testimony of Jesus Christ.

Paul's question to this group of disciples in Ephesus is a fabulous question to ask ourselves. Are you having experiences with the Spirit regularly to keep your faith alive?

Today we talk about the merciful nature of God and His desire for us to open our mouths.

If we come to know God, then we need to acknowledge that we are all His family and we will treat one another accordingly.

It is so vitally important to understand who we are as children of God, but understanding who God is as well gives power to our understanding that we are His children.

Today we discuss the power of the scriptures in conversion and in finding Truth.

Christianity is comforting but it is rarely comfortable.

Timothy shows us what it means to be "all in" on your covenants.

Sometimes deliverance happens just as we hope for, other times it does not. The key is maintaining faith in Jesus Christ through the hard times.

The people of the day questioned the revelation that Peter received until they had a confirmation from the Spirit. Do we sometimes do the same thing as we receive from our modern day prophets and apostles? Can we do a better job at seeking and receiving confirmation for ourselves?

Today we take one last look at Acts chapter 10 to learn about the patterns of revelation that Heavenly Father uses to guide His children.

If we are going to truly believe in the atonement of Jesus Christ, then we have to be willing to accept that it applies to ALL of God's children.

When God tells us we are clean, let's trust Him enough to believe it!

If we are willing to see, we will be able to witness all the times that God is orchestrating our lives "by divine design."

Today as we meet Cornelius, the gentile, we are reminded of the immense love that God has for ALL of His children.

We can take a lesson from Ananias about receiving strength to forgive, and the imporatance of doing so.

Being a disciple means being prepared to change and to grow. The path to growth isn't always easy, but the outcome is always better than we can imagine.

Are we willing to be humble enough to change when the Lord reaches out to us?

Today we talk about Stephen's final testimony of Christ, and the description of his death being "sleep." because of Jesus Christ, we will wake again.

When others try to tell us what we do and don't believe, we can be like Stephen and testify of the truths we know.

Stephen begins to do a great work, and comes against great resistance. The Jews try to tell Stephen what he is preaching and what he said and he is called upon to defend it. In our day and age often times people try to tell us what we believe, and we will be called upon in word and action to show that in all things we are true Christians.

Today we talk about the difference between ministering and administering, and what was the priority of the 12.

Today we talk about the purpose of the ongoing restoration.

The same power that Christ had to heal carried on with His apostles, and carries on today.

True conversion leads us to want to DO something. Lasting conversion will lead to us continuing in that action.
