Introduction

Chapter 16 begins the final section in the book of Acts, which focuses on Paul’s mission to spread the faith. As he begins his second journey, Paul meets Timothy, who will become one of his co-workers. Paul has a vision, calling him to preach in Macedonia. When he and his companions arrive in Philippi (a Roman colony in the district of Macedonia), they meet Lydia, who invites them to her home.

Today’s Scripture: Acts 16:5 (GNT)

So the churches were made stronger in the faith and grew in numbers every day.

Today’s Reading 

Acts 16:1-15

Reflect

When Paul had the vision to go to Macedonia, what convinced him it was the right thing to do? How do you experience God’s call in your life? What was Lydia’s role in the community in Philippi? What took place after she met with Paul?

Pray

Sovereign God, you call me to be your voice, hands, and feet in the world. Open my eyes, ears, and heart to your call that I may grow in discipleship and in knowledge of you. Amen.

Those discerning a call to serve the church
