Event: Paul’s Trial Before Felix
S – Scripture
Acts 24 v. 2b-3 (Tertullas speaking): Since through you we enjoy much peace, and since by your provision, most excellent Felix, reforms are introduced on your behalf of this nation, in every way and everywhere we accept this with all gratitude.
O – Observation
Confusion of honor. Today's verses sounds like a testament to our God. But, really, this is a testament, praise and honor to a man. The Jewish leaders are going to compare and contrast what man has done vs. what a Man of God has done, as they bring their acquisitions against Paul. The world will recognize leaders that present an agenda that conforms to their standards. But, we have to realize God's sovereignty. God allows, puts, places, blesses and curses leaders as he sees fit. Psalm 24 v. 1, "The earth is the Lords; and the fullness thereof, the world and those who dwell their-in."
A - Application
Am I confused on who I honor?
P – Prayer
Jesus, You are King of everything. Love Will.
