1 Acts Chapters 11 and 12 Lesson 9 FIRST DAY: Review and Overview 1. What did God draw your attention to in Acts 10? 2. Don t be dismayed when you experience spiritual warfare! Spiritual opposition arises when we are being effectively used by God. This is clearly demonstrated in our text this week. The Apostle Peter was used by God to take the Gospel to the Gentiles. After a revival broke out, he was brought before the church council in Jerusalem. There, Peter testified of the glorious work of the Holy Spirit. Not long after Peter was exonerated by the council, King Herod threw him in prison. However, God was not through with the apostle; He had even greater plans to accomplish! In fact, God used the opposition against Peter to increase his effectiveness and spread the Gospel further. As you read Acts 11 and 12 take special note of how God used spiritual opposition for His glory. Write a title for each section: a. Acts 11:1 18 b. Acts 11:19 30 c. Acts 12:1 17 d. Acts 12: Ask God to help you persevere to victory through any spiritual opposition this week. When he came and had seen the grace of God, he was glad, and encouraged them all that with purpose of heart they should continue with the Lord. Acts 11: Calvary Chapel Women s Ministries 3800 S.

Acts 11:26c (1) What does this convey to you about their witness? 6. At that time prophets came to Antioch, one of which was Agabus (Acts 11:27 28a). What did the Spirit reveal through him?
