Week 11, Day 2 Devotional

Day Two:

Read: Acts 19:1-20

Reflect:

1) Why did Paul move on from preaching in the synagogue in Ephesus? How do you need to “move on from preaching in the synagogue” in your life?

2) Why did the demon not flee even after the sons of Sceva commanded him to come out in the name of Jesus?

     a.  Because he didn’t want to

     b.  Because he was too powerful

     c.  Because the sons of Sceva were not sincere in their faith in Jesus

     d.  Because Jesus had no authority over him

3) The times when you feel like you have failed the Lord do you think it may be because your trust in Him failed? In what areas are you lacking trust in Jesus?

To Memorize:

But when some became stubborn and continued in unbelief, speaking evil of the Way before the congregation, he withdrew from them and took the disciples with him, reasoning daily in the hall of Tyrannus.

Acts 19:9 (ESV)
