I Have Many In This City S5e114 Acts18:10

Apparently, the good Lord looks upon our cities with a different set of EYES and TIMING. He says to Paul, "I have many in this city who are my people." When Paul looks around he sees a different picture. He sees something more like, "I don't see, yet, what you see, Lord".

The Lord wants a people for His name, for His possession.  He wants to BE WITH people.  This would be a good name for a podcast.  Here, the Lord is blowing our minds with His foresighted sovereignty.  The AND part here is quite humbling.  He tells Paul to keep preaching and teaching and disciplining.  This is to mature the already-believers and to bring in the not-yet-believers-that-God-already-sees-as-His-own.

Lord, do you have many in my city that are Your people that I see as not Your people?  Give me those who are not your people that you have called and you'd like a bit of cooperative sovereignty going on. Help me to not be afraid. Let me value your "Be With Me" in my life and in the lives of others.  Amen and Amen and Amen.  write bewithme.us@gmail.com and I'll send you the podcast each morning early early early.
