When God Speaks

Acts 18:9-17

God is true to His word and faithful to His people. In a vision, He instructed Paul to continue preaching in Corinth, and assured him that no one would harm him there. No doubt Paul clung to this promise when the Jews rose up against him and brought him before the ruler of the city.

Before Paul could even open his mouth to offer his defence, the judge threw out the case, and by the end of the matter Paul’s chief accuser was beaten instead. What a comfort to know that the Almighty God cares for His children, watches over them, and assures them with His unchanging Word. If we have a word from God, we can rest assured that He will see it through!
