12 November 2020

 *Day 73/90 (Nov 12) portions to read*:


*_PAUL'S JOURNEY TO ROME_*

Paul sails towards Rome - Acts 27:1-12

They are caught in a storm - Acts 27:13-20

Paul takes command - Acts 27:21-38

They escape safely to land - Acts 27:39-44

The natives receive them kindly - Acts 28:1-10

[ *_Journey to Rome AD 60-61_*]

They travel on to Rome - Acts 28:11-16

Letter to Philemon: Greetings - Philemon v.1-7

His request on behalf of Onesimus - v.8-22

Conclusion - v.23-25


*A thought*:

Paul's short letter to Philemon is an excellent illustration of what some people call "lathering before you shave". This means emphasizing a person's good points before you confront them with their bad points. See how Paul commends before he commands. Now make a decision today that, from now on, you will do the same. 


*Week #11 - Memory Verse*:

Philippians 4:11 _"I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learnt to be content whatever the circumstances"_
