Today’s Feast
Feb. 4, 2016 – Acts 27
Avoid The Shipwreck!
Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We
will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in
God’s Word in approximately three years.
“1 I
love you, O LORD, my strength. 2 The LORD is my rock
and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I
take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.” Psalm 18:1-2, English Standard Version (ESV)
Dear Saints,
Thank
you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue our Feast in Acts Chapter 27; “Paul's voyage towards Rome. (1-11) Paul
and his companions endangered by a tempest. (12-20) He
receives a Divine assurance of safety. (21-29) Paul
encourages those with him. (30-38) They
are shipwrecked. (39-44)”
- Matthew Henry
Concise.
His faith in Jesus puts Paul on a voyage towards Rome. A
dangerous storm bears down on Paul and his companions. God sends an angel to
tell Paul all aboard the ship will be saved. Because of his faith in our Lord
Jesus. Paul instructs those with him so that all will be saved from the
storm. They are shipwrecked, and because the Holy Spirit worked together so
that they are all safe. ”42 The soldiers’ plan was to kill the
prisoners, lest any should swim away and escape. 43 But the centurion,
wishing to save Paul, kept them from carrying out their plan. He ordered
those who could swim to jump overboard first and make for the land, 44 and
the rest on planks or on pieces of the ship. And so it was that all were
brought safely to land.” Acts
27:42-44, ESV. You may think that it was coincidence that they were all
saved. I tell you it was because of the Holy Spirit that they all were saved.
As we can see by the soldiers plan to kill the prisoners, it’s not in man’s
fleshly nature to work together that all might be saved. “9 The
Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is
patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that
all should reach repentance.” 2
Peter 3:9, ESV. There is a way that any person who will can be saved. In
serving Jesus we are keeping
the first thing first. The gift of God, salvation through the blood of our
Lord Jesus. It’s is not in man’s fleshly nature to give up what won’t last
for that which is good and eternal. Keep remembering Jesus first, not worldly
things. We can all be saved from the shipwrecked way of life, just as Paul
and all those aboard their ship were. If the Lord is
willing I’ll send and post the Feast again tomorrow.

Don’t
get caught up in “religion”, it is about a relationship. Our salvation
depends completely on God! We are the Saints that Jesus sacrificed his life
to pay in full for our sin, when we repent and accept Jesus. He will come to
get every Saint; “36
“But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of
heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.” Matthew 24:36, ESV. We are
building our relationship with Jesus right now, do not wait while you try to
change anything. Click this link for
