Paul’s nephew was an active young man.
He was fully aware of things around him.
In Acts 23 God is able to use him to save Paul’s life and
ensure the continuation of Paul’s pioneering ministry.
He took a stand that he didn’t have to take.
He could as well have said,” Well, what can I do? Paul
is in trouble. This must be the will of God for him to die.”
No, he didn’t accept all the circumstances as the will of
God. He initiated a change.
This is why we still are in the world. We think with God
and look for a change. We either influence or are influenced.
God never sleeps. Psalm 121:4
A believer is called to rest continuously, but he cannot afford to
sleep. The moment our spiritual mind falls asleep we give the
enemy a chance to sow evil in our lives
and in our ministry. Mt.13:25
“Therefore let us not sleep, as others do,
but let us watch and be sober.” I Thess.5:6
