What to Do When Opportunity Comes Knocking

READ Acts 3-4:22 THINK 1. As you think about this message, think “how does God want my beliefs and or actions to change? What is one thing I can do to bring about this change? 2. Think about an opportunity that has come along in your life. What did you do in that moment? Do you regret the action you took? Why or why not? 3. Why does Peter heal the lame man even though the man didn’t ask to be healed? 4. Read vs. 16, who healed the man? 5. Why did the Temple guard arrest Peter and John? 6. Why were the religious leaders so threatened by Peter and John? 7. Why are Peter and John told to no longer say anything about Jesus or to speak his name. What is Peter and John’s response to this? 8. In what way have you been told to be silent about something you have seen and heard? What did you do? 9. What opportunities has God given you to share about Jesus Christ? How have you taken advantage of those opportunities? 10. How have you responded when someone has asked you about your faith in Jesus Christ? PRAY Jesus- I pray that you would give me opportunities to share who you are to other people. I pray that I would be able to recognize these opportunities, and have the courage to speak, to tell, to share your Gospel. In your name I pray. Amen. LIVE Is there an opportunity that God is opening up to you to share Jesus Christ with a family member, a co-worker, or a neighbor? Pray again to have the courage to speak when these opportunities come.
