Acts 27:25

Scripture: 

Acts 27:25  “Therefore, keep up your courage, men, for I believe God that it will turn out exactly as I have been told.” (NASB)

Observation:

A man I met was down and out. He felt like there was no hope, and yet he called and asked me to pray with him. (These moments of men reaching out have become more frequent lately. Satan is attacking men to a horrendous degree these days.) I prayed with my friend. Make sure you read today’s verse. It is a word of encouragement for any man struggling with something. Don't give up. Don't let Satan rob you of the power we have in Jesus Christ

I want to encourage each one who reads this to do two things: 1) pray to find God’s direction, and 2) reach out to a guy whom you know is struggling and share today's verse. Men can’t go it alone. But we have Jesus Christ and each other. A call or text at the right time can make the difference in a man's life. Whether they know the Lord or not, reach out. See what God does.

Application:

1) Think about what you just read.

2) Ask the Holy Spirit for clarity and insight.

3) Share this with someone who would benefit from reading it.

4) Make sure others see Jesus in YOU today.
