Persecutor to Preacher

Jun 21, 2026    Leo Loughmiller

Discovering God’s will requires more than relying on random Bible verses, feelings, coincidences, or simply accepting whatever happens. Paul’s journey in Acts 16 shows that God sometimes directs us by closing doors, redirecting plans, and opening unexpected opportunities. Rather than demanding that God bless the path we have chosen, we are called to submit our plans to Him and remain attentive to His leading. Even when God says “no” to our plan, He may be saying “go” toward a greater purpose He has already prepared.
