Acts: The Spread of the Gospel
This study is taken from John MacArthur's "Acts: The Spread of the Gospel." My prayer and goal for this devo is that we will learn more about how the early church laid the foundation for what we possess today, and that we would allow God to use us to turn our world upside for Him!
This will be an exciting journey, so encourage others to join you! I'm looking forward to the interaction we will have on this blog as we study the book of Acts!
The devos will differ in format from day to day, but two things are constant: 1) a daily reading, and 2) additional Scripture passages that are in bold. Be sure to read any and all of the readings/bold verses that appear so that you can see the full picture of what is taught that day.
Remember, you can access any of the previous devos that have been posted from the "Blog Archive" section on the left side of this page.

Joseph: 17-30 - Let's Meet Poor, Pitiful Mrs. Potiphar - Devo for 09/29/08
Genesis 39:6-23
Questions
2. Mrs. Potiphar had a wandering eye! Never think that what we allow ourselves to gaze upon is powerless in our thoughts and actions. Genesis 39:7 says, "his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph." Just like Eve, Lot, Samson, and David, Mrs. Potiphar did not control what entered her eye-gate.
a. What does Psalm 101:3 say about what we choose to look at?
b. On a scale of 1 to 10, how well do you control your eyes?

d. According to 1 John 2:15-17 and Psalm 119:36-37, what should we pray?
