"And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, which worshipped God, heard us: whose heart the Lord opened, that she attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul. And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought us, saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and abide there. And she constrained us" (Acts 16:14-15).
How did the Lord open Lydia's heart? Through the message be presented. The phrase "she attended" means "to hold the mind towards; to pay attention." See what the word of God can do to a person who pays attention? Paul said she "heard us." An open heart will respond to the gospel in obedience. Is that you?
