On The Move

On The Move (Part 3) Acts 11


Big Idea: Though we may be hesitant or even resistant to it, God is on the move to accomplish his purposes in the world

A) Peter's report of God's power melts the wills of the resistant (11:1-18)

B) Barnabas' witness of God's grace eases the fears of the hesitant (11:19-26)

C) The gift from the Christians in Antioch reveals God's wisdom to accomplish his purposes (11:27-30)

1. God doesn't need us to get his work done

2. Our hesitation and resistance to God's moving reveal that we think we know better than him

3. Though God doesn't need us, he invites us to join him on the move for our joy
