Acts 9: 19-20
Saul spent several days with the
disciples in
Saul, otherwise known as Paul,
had a remarkable conversion with the Lord. Saul was very devoted to his
beliefs, but his beliefs led him to believe that it was right to persecute and
murder Christians. Not everything we believe is the truth. We need to make sure
that what we believe is directly from the Word of God.
After Paul’s conversion, he spent
several days with the disciples. This scripture says, at once he began to
preach in the synagogues that Jesus is the Son of God. Notice here that there was
no hesitancy by Paul. He simply acted on what he saw and believed. We don’t
have that luxury of seeing the Lord like he did yet, but that shouldn’t stop us
from sharing the gospel.
Some people have the belief well
I have to see it to believe it. How foolish that is! Do we see the wind or see
the air we breathe? Without air we couldn’t breathe yet we know it exists.
Jesus said, “Blessed are those who don’t have to see and believe.” Just because
we can’t physically see Jesus right now doesn’t mean everything stops and we
make excuses. We should be actively going out and sharing our faith and
believing what the scripture says with the help of the Holy Spirit. That is the
only hope for our nation and the world.
Dear Jesus, help me to act on my faith daily. Help me to not make excuses for not sharing my faith with others today. Give me opportunities today to make a difference in someone’s life today. In Jesus name, Amen!
