When God Moves, Get Out of the Way

God's Move Proves Unstoppable

Opposition couldn't stop the gospel—God used it to spread it. In Acts 11–12, we see the early church grow through persecution, experience both loss and miraculous rescue, and remain faithful because God's mission is unstoppable. No matter the obstacles, God's plan moves forward, and every believer has a part to play.

When God Moves, Get Out of the Way

Peter's encounter with Cornelius reveals a powerful truth: God shows no favoritism. In Acts 10–11, we see barriers of prejudice, tradition, and personal agendas fall as the Gospel reaches the Gentiles. Through Peter's obedience, the preaching of God's Word, and the work of the Holy Spirit, we are reminded that salvation, grace, and the Spirit's seal are available to everyone who believes in Jesus Christ. When God moves, our response is simple: give Him praise or get out of the way.

What God Has Made Clean

The wall between "us" and "them" already came down at the cross. God isn't asking us to be generally open to people; He's asking us to stop calling impure what He has made clean, and to go discover where He's already working.

The One You Least Expect

God reaches the people nobody would reach — and then sends ordinary people to go get them. The story of Saul's conversion isn't just about what Jesus can do; it's about whether we'll be the Ananias who shows up.

Philip and the Ethiopian Eunich

When pressure came against the early Church, the gospel didn’t disappear — it spread. In Acts 8, Philip shows us a simple but powerful model for sharing Jesus: follow God’s lead, be with people, listen well, ask questions, speak truth, and walk alongside others in their next steps of faith. This message explores how ordinary obedience can create extraordinary impact as we carry the good news beyond the walls of the church.
