“Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews. And Paul went in, as was his custom, and on three Sabbath days he reasoned with them from the Scriptures, explaining and proving that it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead, and saying, “This Jesus, whom I proclaim to you, is the Christ.” And some of them were persuaded and joined Paul and Silas, as did a great many of the devout Greeks and not a few of the leading women.”Acts 17:1-4 ESV

All,
This stands out because Luke says, “he reasoned with them from the Scriptures.” Does God want us to read the Bible? Does Satan? One of God’s ways of speaking to us is through the Bible. We build our relationship with Him by reading the Word He gave us. This results in the Fruit of the Spirit (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness, and self-control). Please pray that we and our friends spend time today reading God’s Word. Please pray for all of us to be thankful for God today. Happy Thanksgiving!
