Apostlenes gjerninger 14,23

Jesus
FastingPrayerServing others

21 Etter at de hadde forkynt evangeliet i den byen og vunnet et betydelig antall disipler, vendte de tilbake til Lystra, Ikonium og Antiokia,

22 styrket disiplene og oppmuntret dem til å forbli standhaftige i troen, og sa: "Vi må tåle mange vanskeligheter for å komme inn i Guds rike."

Paulus og Barnabas utnevnte eldste for dem i hver menighet, og med bønn og faste overga de dem til Herren som de hadde trodd på.

24 De reiste gjennom Pisidia og kom til Pamfylia.

25 Etter å ha forkynt ordet i Perge, dro de ned til Attalia.
