Feb. 3, 2016 – Acts 26
Who Is This Gift For?
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.
“But I will sing of your
strength; I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning. For you
have been to me a fortress and a refuge in the day of my distress.” Psalm 59:16, English Standard Version (ESV)
Dear Saints,
Thank
you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue our Feast in Acts Chapter 26; “Paul's defence before Agrippa. (1-11) His
conversion and preaching to the Gentiles. (12-23) Festus
and Agrippa convinced of Paul's innocence. (24-32)”
- Matthew Henry
Concise.
The promise by God of our savior Jesus is Paul’s chief defense
before king Agrippa. Paul tells of his conversion and preaching to all
people. Festus and Agrippa are convinced of Paul’s innocence. ”30
Then the king rose, and the governor and Bernice and those who were sitting
with them. 31 And when they had withdrawn, they said to one another, “This
man is doing nothing to deserve death or imprisonment.” 32 And Agrippa said
to Festus, “This man could have been set free if he had not appealed to
Caesar.”” Acts
26:30-32, ESV. Some may say that Paul’s own words delivered him to king
Agrippa. I think it was God’s will that he was delivered to the king and his
court, after all God’s gift is to all men. “ 6 And while
they were there, the time came for her to give birth. 7 And
she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths
and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the
inn.” Luke
2:6-7, ESV. Think of this Paul was testifying of the same Christ Jesus
that was born to Mary! Please help us in keeping
the first thing first. The gift of God, salvation through the blood of our
Lord Jesus. With the promise of life that comes with faith in Jesus, comes
purpose to share him with all the people on earth. People of all stations,
races, creeds, accomplishments, nothing was created without our God. Nothing
or no one can be saved, without Jesus! If the Lord is
willing I’ll send and post the Feast again tomorrow.
You’ll
find the praise and prayer list at; admenu.com/prayer.html. Prayer request or Praise reports can be
sent to brother Mike at; mike@admenu.com
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

Ask Jesus!
Today’s Feast

Feb. 2, 2016 – Acts 25
Ask Jesus!
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.
“But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor
ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who
love him”—” 1 Corinthians 2:9, English Standard Version (ESV)
Dear Saints,
Thank
you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue our Feast in Acts Chapter 25; “Paul before Festus, he appeals to Caesar. (1-12) Festus
confers with Agrippa respecting Paul. (13-27)”
- Matthew Henry
Concise.
Paul is brought before Festus and there
Paul feeling he had wronged no one appeals to Caesar. Festus finding no reason
to punish him confers with Agrippa about Paul’s supposed trespasses. ”25
But I found that he had done nothing deserving death. And as he himself
appealed to the emperor, I decided to go ahead and send him. 26 But I have
nothing definite to write to my lord about him. Therefore I have brought him
before you all, and especially before you, King Agrippa, so that, after we
have examined him, I may have something to write. 27 For it seems to me
unreasonable, in sending a prisoner, not to indicate the charges against
him.”” Acts
24:24-27, ESV. Just like Paul, when sharing the true gospel of Jesus, we
may be accused of trespass. Because we serve the one true God, if we depend
on the leading of the Holy Spirit, Jesus will take care of us. “[The
Birth of Jesus Christ] In those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus
that all the world should be registered. And Joseph also went up from
Galilee, from the town of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David, which is
called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, to be
registered with Mary, his betrothed, who was with child.” Luke 2:1, 4-5 ESV . One thing is for sure, our
God is awesome. Jesus promised
that he would never leave nor forsake us! Join us in keeping the first thing
first. The gift of God, salvation through the blood of our Lord Jesus. Do you
want a true blessing? Ask Jesus to be Lord of your life. In doing so you will
have a more abundant and purposeful life, everlasting.
If the
Lord is willing I’ll send and post the Feast again tomorrow

What’s Our Purpose?
Today’s Feast
Feb. 1, 2016 – Acts 24
What’s Our Purpose?
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.
““Hear, O Israel:
The Lord our God, the Lord is one. You shall love the Lord your
God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might.” Deuteronomy 6:4-5, English Standard Version (ESV)
Dear Saints,
Thank
you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue our Feast in Acts Chapter 24; “The speech of Tertullus against Paul. (1-9) Paul's
defence before Felix. (10-21) Felix
trembles at the reasoning of Paul. (22-27)”
- Matthew Henry
Concise.
When
we hear the speech of Tertullus against Paul, remember these “great” men are
not used to being confronted with opinions that are contradictory to theirs.
Because he served Jesus wherever he went, Paul’s defense before Felix was
sufficient for the day. Felix is impressed enough to bring his wife to hear
Paul, but he trembles at the reasoning of Paul. ”24 After some days Felix came with his wife
Drusilla, who was Jewish, and he sent for Paul and heard him speak about
faith in Christ Jesus. 25 And as he reasoned about righteousness and
self-control and the coming judgment, Felix was alarmed and said, “Go away
for the present. When I get an opportunity I will summon you.” 26 At the same
time he hoped that money would be given him by Paul. So he sent for him often
and conversed with him. 27 When two years had elapsed, Felix was succeeded by
Porcius Festus. And desiring to do the Jews a favor, Felix left Paul in
prison.” Acts
24:24-27, ESV. Paul was carrying the salvation message wherever he went.
Because God’s word does not go out without purpose, Paul survives the
accusations of both the Roman and Jewish leaders. “And you, child, will be called the prophet
of the Most High; for you will go before the Lord to prepare his ways, to give
knowledge of salvation to his people in the forgiveness of their sins,
because of the tender mercy of our God, whereby the sunrise shall visit us
from on high” Luke
1:76-78, ESV. Wherever God leads, be sure to carry the message of our
Lord. Keep the first thing first, salvation through the blood of our
Lord Jesus. The rewards of serving the one true God will always outweigh and
be better than what man can do for or against you! Let your light shine! If the Lord is
willing I’ll send and post the Feast again tomorrow

Do We Choose Duty Over Our Rights?
Today’s Feast
![]()
Jan. 31,
2016 – Acts 23
Do We Choose Duty Over Our Rights?
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.
“For you, O Lord,
are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you.” Psalm 86:5, English Standard Version (ESV)
Dear Saints,
Thank
you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue our Feast in Acts Chapter 23; “Paul's defence before the council of the
Jews. (1-5) Paul's defence. He receives a Divine assurance
that he shall go to Rome. (6-11) The
Jews conspire to kill Paul, Lysias sends him to Cesarea. (12-24) Lysias's
letter to Felix.(25-35)”
- Matthew Henry
Concise.
In Paul’s defense before the council of the Jews, he tells them
he has led a godly life and obeys the law. Paul’s defense includes the fact
that he is a Pharisee. The Council started arguing amongst themselves because
it is made up of both Pharisees and Sadducees. This was because the Pharisees
believe in the resurrection and the Sadducees are sad you see because they
don’t. God tells Paul that he shall go to Rome. The Jews inter into a pact to
kill Paul, so Lysias sends him to Cesarea. Lysias’s letter is delivered along
with Paul to Felix. ”31 So the soldiers, according to their instructions, took Paul
and brought him by night to Antipatris. 32 And on the next day they returned
to the barracks, letting the horsemen go on with him. 33 When they had come
to Caesarea and delivered the letter to the governor, they presented Paul
also before him. 34 On reading the letter, he asked what province he was
from. And when he learned that he was from Cilicia, 35 he said, “I will give
you a hearing when your accusers arrive.” And he commanded him to be guarded
in Herod’s praetorium.” Acts
23:31-35, ESV. What the soldiers did they do because it was their duty
not because they cared about Paul. Paul was delivered to Felix because as a
Roman citizen it was his right. The reason Paul was imprisoned was he lived,
as a soldier in duty to Jesus, not in privilege because of his rights. “68 "Blessed
be the Lord God of Israel, for he has visited and redeemed his
people
69 and has raised up a horn of salvation for us in
the house of his servant David,
70 as he spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets from of
old,” Luke
1:68-70, ESV. Let your duty to God guide you rather than your rights at a
citizen. You have the right to
disregard people because you don’t like them. You have a duty to share God’s
love with them because you have been saved; you are adopted into God’s
family. Continue to keep the first thing first, salvation through the blood
of our Lord Jesus. It may be easier not to be bothered by beggars, but it is
better to share the greatness of God. It is better to do your duty to God,
than to express your rights as a citizen, when it comes to serving Jesus! If the Lord is
willing I’ll send and post the Feast again tomorrow
