Believe in the Lord Jesus

Name Date

Read the Story

Paul and Silas took a young disciple named Timothy with them. The Holy Spirit did not let them speak in Asia. Then Paul saw a vision of a man from Macedonia asking for help.

At Philippi they went by a river to pray. A seller of purple cloth named Lydia listened. The Lord opened her heart. She and her household were baptized, and she asked them to stay at her house.

A slave girl had a spirit that her owners used to make money. Paul told the spirit to come out in the name of Jesus Christ. Her owners were angry. Paul and Silas were hurt and put in jail with their feet in stocks.

About midnight they were praying and singing hymns. The prisoners were listening. A great earthquake opened all the doors. The jailer asked what he must do to be saved. They said to believe in the Lord Jesus (Acts 16:31). He washed their wounds, and his whole household was baptized.

Memory Verse
