Scripture: Acts 13:13-25 Click here for the reading
Observation: In Paul's preaching, he recaptures the entire history of God's activity in the life of the people of Israel and of Jesus, the gift of salvation.
Application: Seeing history repeat itself in our specific time and place, specifically in Baltimore this day, it is worth repeating the embattled history of our country in race relationships. More importantly it is worth recapturing the history of God's saving activity. That is, in every time and place, God has saved God's people....from multiplication and growth, to the deliverance out of slavery in Egypt....From the time of judges and kings, to sending THE King of Kings, Jesus.
God delivers God's people and saves them from sin, death, and evil.
Prayer: Lord, save us! Save us from our divisions, save us from our hatred of each other, save us from destruction!
