One Year Bible: Day 180 - 1 Kings 22:1-53; Acts 19:14-41; Proverbs 15:31-16:7

Here’s a spiritual principle for everyone who seeks to be faithful to God: “As surely as the Lord lives, I can tell him only what the Lord tells me” (1 Kings 22:14). In Ephesus, there was a riot. The crowds shouted, “Great is Artemis (“Diana” in the King James Version: Artemis is the Greek name for the Roman goddess, Diana) of the Ephesians” (Acts 19:28,34). In the present day, in our preaching of God’s Word, we must remind people of this – “You shall have no other gods before Me” (Exodus 20:3). We must be clear in our message concerning Jesus Christ: “There is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12). In Christ, we enjoy salvation. Living in the strength of His salvation, our “ways are pleasing to the Lord” (Proverbs 16:7).
