Phillip’s exit from a thriving revival to encounter one Ethiopian seeker in Acts 8 must have seemed bizarre. Yet Phillip obeyed God’s prompting. In that divine appointment, the eunuch discovered Jesus. God sees people exactly where they are. What might come from radical obedience to that odd divine nudge you can’t shake? The Spirit may seem to lead you away from fruitful work. But God may want to reach one waiting heart through your availability. Like Phillip, obey even when it makes no sense. Sacrifice a comfortable strategy for radical obedience. You could meet a divinely arranged Ethiopian seeking truth today. Be ready to leave the familiar path to follow God’s unexpected lead.
