Acts 9:4-5
Then he fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?” And he said, “Who are You, Lord?” Then the Lord said, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting”
Acts 9:4-5
Acts 9:4-5
As Saul (Paul the Apostle) lay there with his face to the ground, there were two harsh and enormous realities that hit him. 1) Jesus WAS ALIVE! And that means He really IS God! And 2) He had not only been persecuting those who belonged to the Way, He now understood the spiritual unity between the Savior and the saints.
This is a comforting reality for us as Christians. In sports, you always want to get the ball to the strongest, fastest, and best player. In our walk with God, we always want to remember that Jesus is on our side. Anyone that stands against us has Jesus our Savior to deal with.
Resting in Him today,
