Job 5; Psalm 108; Acts 10; Acts 11
Then Barnabas Went
On To Tarsus
To Look For Saul
Scripture
24 Barnabas was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and strong in faith. And many people were brought to the Lord.
25 Then Barnabas went on to Tarsus to look for Saul. 26 When he found him, he brought him back to Antioch. Both of them stayed there with the church for a full year, teaching large crowds of people. (It was at Antioch that the believers were first called Christians.)
Observation
The
Apostle Paul wouldn’t have been all that he was and he would have accomplished
all that he did without his friend Barnabas.
You
and I always need to be helping someone become what God wants him or her to be.
So many people around us have great potential, but they need someone to give
them a little help. It is called discipleship!
Investing
our lives in the lives of others is what we are to be about. Spending time with
others. Encouraging others, lifting others up, showing them by our example how
to grow in the Lord this is what God has called us to do.
It
must always be the main thing on our minds. It must never take the back seat to
anything else!
Barnabas
was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and strong in faith, and his main task
was helping Saul become the Apostle Paul.
Application
I will continue investing time in men to help them become
what God wants them to be.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, help me be a Barnabas to someone this
week. Everyone needs someone that believes in him or her. Thank You for our
Pastor and his Dad who very much believe in discipleship. I am who I am today
because You brought Dr. Waylon Moore into my life. I will always be grateful
for what I learned under his leadership. Thank You for the other men that You
brought into my life like Charles Hartwig and Hugh Roberts. You are constantly
bringing people into our lives that need to be discipled. Show me how to help
them. I pray for the men of our church. I pray that they would be men of God,
full of the Holy Spirit and strong in faith.
