Satan tells all of us that we are unworthy to serve God.
Acts 4:13
Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that
they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge
of them, that they had been with Jesus.
Acts 6:3-8
Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report,
full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.
[4] But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of
the word.
[5] And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen,
a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and
Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch: [6]
Whom they set before the apostles: and when they had prayed, they laid their
hands on them. [7] And the word of God increased; and the number of the
disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests
were obedient to the faith. [8] And Stephen, full of faith and power, did
great wonders and miracles among the people.
Acts 8:26-40
And the angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward
the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is
desert. [27] And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch
of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge
of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship, [28] Was
returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet. [29] Then the
Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot. [30] And
Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said,
Understandest thou what thou readest? [31] And he said, How can I, except some
man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with
him. [32] The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a
sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he
not his mouth: [33] In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who
shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth. [34] And
the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the
prophet this? of himself, or of some other man? [35] Then Philip opened his
mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus. [36] And
as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said,
See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? [37] And Philip said,
If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said,
I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. [38] And he commanded the
chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip
and the eunuch; and he baptized him. [39] And when they were come up out of
the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him
no more: and he went on his way rejoicing. [40] But Philip was found at
Azotus: and passing through he preached in all the cities, till he came to
Caesarea.
God wants each one of us to serve Him. The world will be won through
individuals preaching the gospel where he leads us. Just like he led Philip
to Samaria, and then out into the desert to preach to the eunuch.
We need to be filled with the Holy Ghost!!!!
Acts 1:11
Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven?
this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in
like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.
We need to qut just standing and GAZING at His glory, and we need to be
filled with His power, so we can do what He wants.
Acts 3:22
For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God
raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him SHALL YE HEAR in all
things whatsoever he shall say unto you.
The Holy Ghost gives us a first-hand encounter, so we can be a witness.
Acts 5:33
When they heard that, they were cut to the heart, and took counsel to
slay them.
Acts 7:51-54
Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist
the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye. [52] Which of the prophets
have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which shewed
before of the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers
and murderers: [53] Who have received the law by the disposition of angels,
and have not kept it.
[54] When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they
gnashed on him with their teeth.
The gospel will cut them to the heart and they will either repent or want to kill
you.
