Scripture Union Daily Guide for Today 5th August 2024 Outline

In the sermon preached at Pentecost (Act 2), Peter proved from the Scriptures that Jesus was alive but now he proved it by the miraculous change in the beggar’s life. The man was healed through the power in the name of Jesus.

The Sadducees did not believe in resurrection (see Acts 23:6-8), so they wanted to put a stop to the ministry of the Apostles. This marks the beginning of the official persecution of Christians (v.4). What was the effect of the word they preached? The word prospered and thousands believed the Gospel.

Read vs.7-11 and note the fearless way Peter states his case. What was the source of his boldness (v.8)? It was only through the power of the Holy Spirit that the once fearful apostle could now share his faith (cf. Luke 12:11-12) and even point out the responsibility of the rulers in Jesus’ crucifixion. He focuses on Jesus, the cornerstone that the builders rejected. Jesus whom God raised from the dead.

Jesus, whose name cannot be compared with any other. Jesus’ name, the only name that brings salvation (vs.10-12). How does the Apostle’s emphasis help you respond to those who believe there are many roads that lead to heaven.

Practice/Word Application

And so? Declare the message of v.12 to one or more people today.

* Any new insight or reinforcement of what you already know?

Closing Prayer

Reflect on Philippians 2:9-11 and thank the Lord for His great gift to mankind.

Offer a prayer of faith in line with Deuteronomy 31:6

“Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.”
