Scriptures - June 28 Reading
Acts 18:23-19:12; Psalm 146:1-10; Proverbs 18:2-3;
Acts 18:23-19:12
New Living Translation (NLT)
23 After spending some time in Antioch, Paul went back through Galatia and Phrygia, visiting and strengthening all the believers.[a]
3 “Then what baptism did you experience?” he asked.
And they replied, “The baptism of John.”
4 Paul said, “John’s baptism called for repentance from sin. But John himself told the people to believe in the one who would come later, meaning Jesus.”
5 As soon as they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 6 Then when Paul laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke in other tongues[d] and prophesied. 7 There were about twelve men in all.
Apollos Instructed at Ephesus
24 Meanwhile,
a Jew named Apollos, an eloquent speaker who knew the Scriptures well,
had arrived in Ephesus from Alexandria in Egypt. 25 He had been taught the way of the Lord, and he taught others about Jesus with an enthusiastic spirit[b] and with accuracy. However, he knew only about John’s baptism. 26 When
Priscilla and Aquila heard him preaching boldly in the synagogue, they
took him aside and explained the way of God even more accurately.
27 Apollos
had been thinking about going to Achaia, and the brothers and sisters
in Ephesus encouraged him to go. They wrote to the believers in Achaia,
asking them to welcome him. When he arrived there, he proved to be of
great benefit to those who, by God’s grace, had believed. 28 He
refuted the Jews with powerful arguments in public debate. Using the
Scriptures, he explained to them that Jesus was the Messiah.Paul’s Third Missionary Journey
19 While
Apollos was in Corinth, Paul traveled through the interior regions
until he reached Ephesus, on the coast, where he found several
believers.[c] 2 “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” he asked them.
“No,” they replied, “we haven’t even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.”3 “Then what baptism did you experience?” he asked.
And they replied, “The baptism of John.”
4 Paul said, “John’s baptism called for repentance from sin. But John himself told the people to believe in the one who would come later, meaning Jesus.”
5 As soon as they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 6 Then when Paul laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke in other tongues[d] and prophesied. 7 There were about twelve men in all.
Paul Ministers in Ephesus
8 Then Paul went to the synagogue and preached boldly for the next three months, arguing persuasively about the Kingdom of God. 9 But
some became stubborn, rejecting his message and publicly speaking
against the Way. So Paul left the synagogue and took the believers with
him. Then he held daily discussions at the lecture hall of Tyrannus. 10 This
went on for the next two years, so that people throughout the province
of Asia—both Jews and Greeks—heard the word of the Lord.
11 God gave Paul the power to perform unusual miracles. 12 When
handkerchiefs or aprons that had merely touched his skin were placed on
sick people, they were healed of their diseases, and evil spirits were
expelled.

Psalm 146:1-10
New Living Translation (NLT)
Psalm 146
1 Praise the Lord!
Let all that I am praise the Lord.
2 I will praise the Lord as long as I live.
I will sing praises to my God with my dying breath.
2 I will praise the Lord as long as I live.
I will sing praises to my God with my dying breath.
3 Don’t put your confidence in powerful people;
there is no help for you there.
4 When they breathe their last, they return to the earth,
and all their plans die with them.
5 But joyful are those who have the God of Israel[a] as their helper,
whose hope is in the Lord their God.
6 He made heaven and earth,
the sea, and everything in them.
He keeps every promise forever.
7 He gives justice to the oppressed
and food to the hungry.
The Lord frees the prisoners.
8 The Lord opens the eyes of the blind.
The Lord lifts up those who are weighed down.
The Lord loves the godly.
9 The Lord protects the foreigners among us.
He cares for the orphans and widows,
but he frustrates the plans of the wicked.
there is no help for you there.
