Summary
Hey Sis 💛 Have you ever wondered why God would close a door you were sure He wanted you to walk through? Maybe you've been praying, making plans, and trying to move forward, but things just aren't working out the way you expected. In Acts 16, we see Paul and Silas being redirected by the Holy Spirit. They try to go one way, but God closes the door. Then they try to go another way, and that door closes too. But what looked like confusion in the moment was actually God leading them somewhere greater than they could see. In today's Bible study, we're talking about what to do when God's answer isn't "yes" and how His "not yet" might actually be leading you somewhere even better. If you've been feeling confused by a closed door, discouraged by a delay, or unsure of what God is doing next, this conversation is for you. 📖 In This Bible Study ✨ Acts 16:1-15 Study✨ Paul’s second missionary journey begins✨ Timothy joins Paul and Silas✨ Why the Holy Spirit redirected their plans✨ What closed doors can teach us about God’s timing✨ Lydia’s heart being opened by the Lord✨ Encouragement for trusting God with the next step 🔗 Helpful Links 🩷 For the Soul Prayer Journalhttps://circletimeforthesoul.com/journal ✨ Join the Circle Time Collectivehttps://circletimeforthesoul.com/collective 🙏 Accept Jesus Into Your Hearthttps://peacewithgod.net/steps/ 💛 Support the Ministryhttps://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=XEP4CUT65R2H6 📚 Resources Blue Letter Biblehttps://www.blueletterbible.org BibleRefhttps://www.bibleref.com Bible Study Fellowshiphttps://www.bsfinternational.org Through the Bible with Pastor Paul https://www.youtube.com/@Through-the-Bible Spiritual Growth Bible NLThttps://amzn.to/4urjU8R 🎶 Music Buenos Dias by Matt LargeEpidemic Sound 📌 Note Some links may be affiliate links…
