[S] Acts 24:24,27 --
24But some days later Felix arrived with Drusilla, his wife who was a Jewess, and sent for Paul and heard him speak about faith in Christ Jesus.
27But after two years had passed, Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus, and wishing to do the Jews a favor, Felix left Paul imprisoned.
[O] Felix listened to the gospel many times and yet when the time came for his actions, he still chose to carry our his own desires. Listening for the sake of just listening is the culture these days. In fact, we're in the information overload phase with so much being poured into our minds through the Internet and social media apps. It is leaving very little time to process and impact how we actually live our lives daily.
[A] When I listen to God's word and His guidance (spoken directly into my heart), I need to make sure my actions are affected to bring out more of Him and not my own will.
[P] Dear Father, as I am currently going through some challenging moments which is really an opportunity from God for me to make adjustments in the way I think and act, I pray that I would have the right bearing to live it out in obedience of His teachings. In Jesus' name. Amen.
