My 2025 Theme Verses: Ezra 7:10 (ESV) For Ezra had set his heart to study the Law of the LORD, and to do it and to teach his statutes and rules in Israel. Daniel 1:8 (ESV) But Daniel resolved that he would not defile himself with the king’s food, or with the wine that he drank. Therefore he asked the chief of the eunuchs to allow him not to defile himself.

Do you see where God is moving you and why? Acts 9-10
God moves us where He wants us to be and where He wants us to minister and serve others. In Acts 9 and 10 we see Peter being used by God to heal and restore to life people important to the church and those who had sought God and fought for God. Peter could have stayed in Jerusalem and had a great ministry. But, God choose to move him and use him. Stationary ministries are ordained by God but, so too, are mobile ministries. The key in reading about Peter's movements is to understand the great things he accomplished was due to his willingness to move and those he ministered willingness to engage with him. God is in the process of moving us where he wants us to be. If Peter had a bent on being "home" he may have missed the great opportunities God had for him to heal and restore life. We can get so accustom to our surroundings that we fail to realize God uses movement in our life to reach others. If you are not impacting others it may be that you are not moving when God says to move. If you aren't coming in contact with opportunities to minister it could be that in your movement you aren't opening your eyes with a vision of service. God will move us if we are willing. God will use us if we are looking.
