Instructions

These are short devotional thoughts to accompany a daily Bible reading. The readings are arranged for a chronological reading of the scriptures. I am reading the Today's New International Version. However, it should work with any version. It is my prayer that it will encourage reading of God's word, and inculcating the teachings into daily living. May His richest blessings be with you!

November 24


Acts 15-16
It has been said that truth is stranger than fiction. We live in a world that is fascinated with action heroes. Blockbuster movies are made filled with the exploits of real and fictional characters. Today's reading could easily be the basis for such a film. Paul and Silas' missionary journey has all the makings of an action packed, larger than life, adventure movie. I can picture a strong leading man playing the part of Paul, with his faithful companions, Silas, and Luke, the recorder of events, being directed and empowered supernaturally by the Spirit of God. This would truly be an edge-of-your-seat, nail-biter, movie! Perhaps we could get Peter Jackson or Steven Spielberg to direct it. What do you think?
