In today’s Bible study through Acts 11, we’re walking through the moment Peter had to explain why he followed the leading of the Holy Spirit even when it challenged tradition, expectations, and the opinions of others. This scripture is such a powerful reminder that obedience to God will not always be comfortable or widely accepted. Sometimes God will ask us to move beyond what feels familiar so He can reveal something greater. And Sis… if you’ve ever struggled with fear of people’s opinions, hesitation to obey, or wondering if you should stay quiet to keep others comfortable… this episode is for you. 💛 📖 In This Bible Study ✨ Acts 11:1–18 explained✨ Peter’s response to criticism and opposition✨ The tension between tradition and obedience✨ Why God’s work often stretches our understanding✨ Learning to trust God even when others don’t understand✨ “Who am I to stand in God’s way?” 🔗 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 Paulhttps://www.lifebibleministry.com/through-the-bible 🎶 Music Buenos Dias by Matt LargeMusic from Epidemic Sound 📌 Note Some links above may be affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.
