Acts 18:1-22

For a  Jewish Christian couple named Priscilla and Aquila, providence intervenes in their lives and introduces them to the apostle Paul. 

  • By coincidence, they also make tents for a living.
  •   By coincidence, they found themselves in Corinth after being forced to leave Rome because of the decree of the emperor Claudius.  
  • By coincidence, they just happen to meet Paul on one of his missionary journeys.
  • By coincidence, they befriend him, house him, and join his missionary band.
  • By coincidence, they just happen to be free to travel with Paul.
  • By coincidence, they were able to stay on in Ephesus after Paul left.
  • By coincidence, Apollos, who needed their counsel, would soon arrive in Ephesus.

That is how the Holy Spirit did his wonders in the first century.  That is how he does his wonders today.
