Cover Picture By God’s Guidance Acts 15:36-16:10 (Part 2)

Acts 16:1-5 1 Paul came also to Derbe and to Lystra. And a disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewish woman who was a believer, but his father was a Greek, 2 and he was well spoken of by the brethren who were in Lystra and Iconium. 3 Paul wanted this man to go with him; and he took him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those parts, for they all knew that his father was a Greek. 4 Now while they were passing through the cities, they were delivering the decrees which had been decided upon by the apostles and elders who were in Jerusalem, for them to observe. 5 So the churches were being strengthened in the faith, and were increasing in number daily.

The Book of Acts The book of Acts is not the record of extraordinary men doing things for God, but rather is about an extraordinary God accomplishing His purposes through ordinary people.

Paul’s Game Plan

The “means” of the Holy Spirit to Lead and Guide Believers The Holy Spirit uses discord to lead and guide His people into the will of God.

ACTS 15:36 “Let us return and visit the brethren in every city in which we proclaimed the word of the Lord, and see how they are.”

The “means” of the Holy Spirit to Lead and Guide Believers The Holy Spirit uses the process of discipleship to lead and guide His people into the will of God. What is a disciple? A disciple is simply a follower of Jesus Christ. He is one who learns about Jesus and then seeks to live like Jesus.

How can we know if our discipleship is Spirit-driven? I. A consuming desire for people (16:1a) Paul came also to Derbe and to Lystra…

2 While they were ministering to the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, "Set apart for Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them." 3 Then, when they had fasted and prayed and laid their hands on them, they sent them away. 4 So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia and from there they sailed to Cyprus. ACTS 13:2-4

ACTS 1:8 “but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you [divine enablement]; and you shall be My witnesses [divine command] both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth."

How can we know if our discipleship is Spirit-driven? II. A committed desire for a person (16:1b-3a) And a disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewish woman who was a believer, but his father was a Greek, 2 and he was well spoken of by the brethren who were in Lystra and Iconium. Paul wanted this man to go with him…

19 But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you shortly, so that I also may be encouraged when I learn of your condition. 20 For I have no one else of kindred spirit who will genuinely be concerned for your welfare. 21 For they all seek after their own interests, not those of Christ Jesus. 22 But you know of his proven worth, that he served with me in the furtherance of the gospel like a child serving his father. 23 Therefore I hope to send him immediately, as soon as I see how things go with me; 24 and I trust in the Lord that I myself also will be coming shortly. PHILIPPIANS 2:19-24

How can we know if our discipleship is Spirit-driven? III. A considerate desire for people (16:3b) Paul wanted this man to go with him; and he took him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those parts, for they all knew that his father was a Greek.

19 For though I am free from all men, I have made myself a slave to all, so that I may win more. 20 To the Jews I became as a Jew, so that I might win Jews; to those who are under the Law, as under the Law though not being myself under the Law, so that I might win those who are under the Law; 21 to those who are without law, as without law, though not being without the law of God but under the law of Christ, so that I might win those who are without law. 22 To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak; I have become all things to all men, so that I may by all means save some. 1 CORINTHIANS 9:19-22

How can we know if our discipleship is Spirit-driven? IV. A comprehensive desire for people (16:4-5) 4 Now while they were passing through the cities, they were delivering the decrees which had been decided upon by the apostles and elders who were in Jerusalem, for them to observe. 5 So the churches were being strengthened in the faith, and were increasing in number daily.

PHILIPPIANS 2:1-2 1 Therefore if there is any encouragement in Christ, if there is any consolation of love, if there is any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and compassion, 2 make my joy complete by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in spirit, intent on one purpose.
