\nSaul wanted to go and persecute believer when he came under the arrest of God. The bible recorded Saul\u2019s purpose, \u201cThen Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest \u00a0<\/sup>and asked letters from him to the synagogues of Damascus, so that if he found any who were of the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.\u201d(Acts 9:1-2)<\/i><\/b>
\nSaul (Apostle Paul) purposed evil but God disposed his evil agenda when he came under the arrest of Jesus.
\nSaul took to a dark avenue but God showed up with light. He was arrested by a shining light. It is written, \u201cAs he journeyed, he came near Damascus, and suddenly a light shone around him from heaven.\u201d (Acts 9:3)<\/i><\/b> The light that shone around Saul brought him down and opened up his ears and he heard the Word. Saul responded to the light of God, \u201cAnd he said, \u2018Who are You, Lord?\u2019 Then the Lord said, \u2018I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. It is hard for you to kick against the goads.\u2019\u201d 6 So he trembling and astonished said, \u2018Lord, what do you want me to do?\u2019 Then the Lord said to him, \u2018Arise and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.\u2019\u201d\u00a0 (Acts 9:5-6) \u00a0<\/i><\/b>
\nBy virtue of the light, Saul\u2019s lifetime journey was rerouted. Saul had his name changed from Saul to Paul. Above all, from the moment the light shone on him, he was empowered to live his remaining life under unfailing light of God. With the light on him, he never had a misstep in the calling that was laid upon his life. In Paul\u2019s life, no darkness could harass or threaten him without him overcoming them. The light that brought Saul out from darkness gave him new spiritual eyesight. The light became Paul\u2019s compass as he operated heaven on earth through the remaining of his life.
\nAre you running from God\u2019s calling? Under heaven, it is impossible for darkness to deny light from exposing it. If God is calling you, know that He will catch up with you. It is time for man to stop running from the calling upon man\u2019s life. It is encouraging to know that faithful is He that calls; He shall not fail to back the called ones up. (1 Thessalonians 5:24)<\/p>\n
