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 10/01/08

Reading
Genesis 39:6-23

Questions
4. Mrs. Potiphar had a stubborn will. She would not listen to reason. Others may have been caught in her web, but all of a sudden a young, good looking servant is standing up to her by simply saying, "No!" He not only refused to sin, but also tried to get her to change her ways. But she still refused to listen.

a. Is there any area of your life where stubbornness stands in the way of reason?
b. What does God call stubbornness in 1 Samuel 15:23?
