Summer Devotional:
​No Other Name - A Devotional on the Book of Acts

Day 17 – June 23rd, 2021
Read Acts 8:26-40

Helpful Background
God clearly, and miraculously, orchestrated the meeting between Philip and the Ethiopian official.  God set up a “Divine appointment” on the road that day, and had carefully prepared Philip and the Ethiopian official for the situation.  Philip’s job was simply to be obedient, and yield himself to God, and “show up” for the appointment that God had arranged.

Questions - What can we learn from the example of Philip?  How did he respond to the not-so-specific directions that he was given?  How does God still set Divine appointments for us today?  Have you experienced any such appointments in recent times?  How did you handle it?​
