Church Enterprises, How They Must Begin in Order to be Blessed
Acts 13:2-13
As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said…


1. Not with worldly computation, but from the impulse of the Spirit.

2. Not with a premature shout of triumph, but with humble prayer.

3. Not trusting to human names, even those of Barnabas and Saul, but in the name of the living God on whose blessing all things depend.

(K. Gerok.)
