Twelve truths are tucked into Acts 14…

1. We don’t have to do this life alone.
2. We can expect opposition.
3. There is no formula for what to do, outside of following the Spirit’s leading.
4. Even under unfavorable circumstances when we may feel like a failure for having to flee, we can be on mission for God in our new environment.
5. People need to be seen.
6. Sometimes we have to be loud…no time to be timid or bashful.
7. While we were created to worship God, we often look to everything else in the world to worship instead.
8. Even heaven and earth worship and declare the glory of God.
9. Through tribulation we enter the Kingdom of God.
10. Our trials can become a powerful story and testimony for God’s purposes.
