Acts 8

It's interesting here in verse 26 that an angel spoke with Philip. God has different ways to speak to us. How would you like an angel to appear to you and give you some direct orders from God? Philip was having great success in Samaria, many people were getting saved, healed and filled with the Spirit but now he has a new assignment. I like it that Philip obeyed, didn't argue with God, wasn't concerned about his reputation or about what people might think about him leaving the revival, he just went. Then in verse 29, it says that "the Spirit spoke to Philip." Why didn't the angel talk to him like last time? Here he is listening to the Spirit speak to him. We have to be attentive to the different ways God speaks to us. Not get accustomed to just one avenue of communication. Philip obeyed again and was able to minister to the eunuch. He left the masses of Samaria to reach one soul traveling on the road. God has a plan to reach the world, we need to listen and be obedient to follow His leading in our lives.
