کردار 1:13-5

In Acts 13, a shift occurred that changed the course of history. It wasn’t a strategy meeting; it was a move of the Spirit. Based on the "Antioch Protocol," this 3-day plan explores how to cultivate an atmosphere of sensitivity to the voice of the Holy Spirit, the courage to obey specific calls, and the vital difference between being sent by men and being sent by the Holy Spirit.

The church at Antioch, described in Acts 13, offers a compelling picture of what happens when the Holy Spirit unifies a diverse people in common cause. Men from different regions, cultures, and social standings are brought together and unified by God for the sake of His kingdom and His glory. This four-day devotional explores how the early leaders in that church had their identities reshaped by the gospel of Jesus Christ and what that means for the church today. Through their example, we will consider a vision for a church marked by unity, purpose, and faithfulness.

The church didn’t start with buildings, budgets, or big stages. It started with ordinary people filled with an extraordinary Spirit. In this four-part journey through the book of Acts for youth, Sam Farren explores how the Holy Spirit includes, empowers, and sends us, and how we can be part of the movement that’s still turning the world upside down today. This plan isn’t just about the story of the first church. It’s about how the same story continues – through you, today.

What does it take for dreams to become reality? Dreams come true, but what does it take for dreams to become reality? It takes effort and commitment. First of all, you need to seek the Lord to know if your dreams are in His perfect will. Pray and fast; allow Him to speak to you. Then be led by the Holy Spirit and the Word of God, and surround yourself with people whom you trust, those who will stand by you and help you to achieve your God-given dreams. Not only will your vision and dream give you the motivation and commitment to discipline your life, it will also inspire and affect others around you to live out their dreams in Christ.
