Be a Tent!




Event: Stephen's Speech to the Sanhedrin
S - Scripture
Acts 7 v. 44 Our fathers had a tent of witness in the wilderness, even as he who spoke to Moses directed him to make it, according to the pattern that he had seen.

O - Observation
The tent of witness. This verse jumped out to me because it's so applicable today. The difference is, we are the tents. We are the Bible to a lot of people. How we live, according to the pattern the Bible prescribes to us, is what will set us apart from others. 1 Corinthians, 3 v. 16, "Do you not know that you are God's temple, and that God's Spirit dwells in you?" Today's world is a spiritual wilderness. There's a lot of dry sections. There's sections full of wild animals. Yet we place our tent in this wilderness, we can be a source of hope.

A - Application
How's my tent? Is it made according to the pattern prescribed by God?

P - Prayer
Jesus, Let me be a tent in the wilderness for you.   Love Will
