Forbidden to Speak? God is concerned with the messenger as well as the message Acts 16:6-18

Why stop a person from speaking if what they are saying is true?

A. God was still working on Paul. Paul’s downward development: Galatians 2:6AD 50 1 Cor 15:8-9AD 57 Ephesians 3:8AD 61 1 Timothy 1:15AD 64 Why did the Holy Spirit forbid Paul to speak? (vs.6-7)

Why did the Holy Spirit forbid Paul to speak? B. God was simultaneously and strategically at work in many other people and places.

Take Away: 1. Get your mouth under God’s control.

2. Give God freedom to interrupt your plans.

3. Delight in God’s perfect timing even before you see it.
