ACTS 19:20 In this way the word of the Lord spread widely and grew in power
ACTS 20:13 We went ahead to the ship and sailed for Assos, where we were going to take Paul aboard. He made arrangements because he was going there on foot.
ACTS 20:22-24 And now I am on my way to Jerusalem, compelled by the Spirit, not knowing what I will encounter there, except that in every town the Holy Spirit warns me that chains and afflictions are waiting for me. But I consider my life of no value to myself; my purpose is to finish my course .
HOW DID PAUL GET TO THIS POINT? HE HAD A WORD FROM THE LORD
ACTS 21:1-13 (MSG) And so, with tearful good-byes behind us, we were on our way. We made a straight run to Cos, the next day reached Rhodes, and then Patara. There we found a ship going direct to Phoenicia, got on board, and set sail. Cyprus came to view on our left but was soon out of sight as we kept on course for Syria, and eventually docked in the port of Tyre.
ACTS 21:1-13 (MSG) While cargo was being unloaded, we looked up the local disciples and stayed with them seven days. Their message to Paul, from insight given by the Spirit, was Don t go to Jerusalem. When our time was up, they escorted us out of the city to the docks. Everyone came along men, women, children. They made a farewell party of the occasion! We all kneeled together on the beach and prayed.
ACTS 21:1-13 (MSG) Then, after another round of saying good-bye, we climbed on board the ship while they drifted back to their homes. A short run from Tyre to Ptolemais completed the voyage. We greeted our Christian friend there and stayed with them a day. In the morning we went on to Caesarea and stayed with Philip the Evangelist, one of the Seven. Philip had four virgin daughters who prophesied.
ACTS 21:1-13 (MSG) After several days of visiting, a prophet from Judea by the name of Agabus came down to see us. He went right up to Paul, took Paul s belt, and, in a dramatic gesture, tied himself up, hands and feet. He said, This is what the Holy Spirit says: The Jews in Jerusalem are going to tie up the man who owns this belt just like this and hand him over to godless unbelievers.
ACTS 21:1-13 (MSG) When we heard that, we and everyone there that day begged Paul not to be stubborn and persist in going to Jerusalem. But Paul wouldn t budge: Why all this hysteria? Why do you insist on making a scene and making it even harder for me? You re looking at this backward. The issue in Jerusalem is not what they do to me, whether arrest or murder, but what the Master Jesus does through my obedience.
