26 An angel of the Lord spoke to Philip: “Get up and go south to the road that goes down from Jerusalem to desert Gaza.” 27 So he got up and went. There was an Ethiopian man, a eunuch
and high official of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who was in charge of her entire
treasury. He had come to worship in Jerusalem 28
and was sitting in his chariot on his way home, reading the prophet Isaiah aloud.
Acts 8:26-28

29 The Spirit told Philip, “Go and join that chariot.” 30 When Philip ran up to it, he heard him reading the prophet Isaiah, and said, “Do you understand what you’re reading?” 31 “How
can I,” he said, “unless someone guides me?” So he invited Philip to come up and sit with him.
Acts 8:29-31

32 Now the Scripture passage he was reading was this: He was led like a sheep to the slaughter,
and as a lamb is silent before its shearer, so He does not open His mouth. 33 In His humiliation justice was denied Him. Who will describe His
generation? For His life is taken from the earth. 34 The eunuch replied to Philip, “I ask you, who is
the prophet saying this about—himself or another person?”
Acts 8:32-34

35 So Philip proceeded to tell him the good news about Jesus, beginning from that Scripture. 36 As they were traveling down the road, they came to
some water. The eunuch said, “Look, there’s water! What would keep me from being
baptized?” [ 37 And Philip said, “If you believe with all your heart you may.” And he replied, “I
believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.”]
Acts 8:35-37

[37 And Philip said, “If you believe with all your heart you may.” And he replied, “I believe that
Jesus Christ is the Son of God.”] 38 Then he ordered the chariot to stop, and both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water, and he
baptized him.
Acts 8:37-38

39 When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord carried Philip away, and the
eunuch did not see him any longer. But he went on his way rejoicing. 40 Philip appeared in Azotus, and passing through, he was evangelizing all the
towns until he came to Caesarea.
Acts 8:39-40

Phillip heard from God.• The “what” was given, the “why” was not.• Does God still speak?
![Page 12: Divine Appointments on the Journey](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815f35550346895dce04a9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Phillip followed God’s instructions.
• Only after Phillip obeyed the “what” did he understand the “why.”
• Phillip saw the lost man and understood why he was there.
• Phillip’s obedience resulted in an invitation to join the lost man on his chariot.

Phillip told of the good news of Jesus.• God loves you and offers a wonderful plan for
your life.• Man is sinful and separated from God. • Jesus Christ is God's only provision for man's
sin. • We must individually receive Jesus Christ as
Savior and Lord.

Salvation came to the Ethiopian.• The new believer wanted to identify with
Christ.• He, too, became an obedient follower of
Jesus.
