Consider Him

"The God of Glory"


When the "Hound of Heaven" found Saul of Tarsus on the road to Damascus, He struck Saul blind and he fell to the ground. Looking up to Heaven, Saul asked two of the most important questions anyone has ever asked. In fact, his two questions are essential for every person to ask of God:

1. Lord, who are You?

2. What do You want me to do?

The hunter had now become the hunted. The Grace of God was about to grip his soul. Grace was about to transform his pursuing, arresting, persecuting and murdering ways into the greatest missionary and Christian apologist this world has ever seen. No one has ever helped humanity understand God better than the one who first denied the Messiahship of Jesus. It is a shame that at times God must use drastic measures to draw us to Himself. Don't let that be you. You might say, "I am already a believer so God wouldn't need to do to me what He did to Saul who became Paul". May I remind that Saul was as devout of a believer in God as was to be found. He described himself as, "the Pharisee of all Pharisees". He sought to end "those of the Way" because he believed that Jesus was not the Christ and saw them as threats to Judaism and the law of God. He was as religious a person as has ever lived. However, he was not correct and God had to do what He did to humble him to the point of doing a 180 in his faith.

I began this series a few weeks ago on "The Characteristics of God" so that not one of us would fail to understand God as much as we possibly can. I ask you to come ready weekly, but especially this week to ask those two questions above. Because until they are asked by you and answered by Him, you will never be what He desires you to be for His Glory. Let's just all decide that our ultimate goal in life is to lay hold of that which He has laid hold of us to do for Him.

We will plan to see His:

Omnipotence

Omniscience

and His Omnipresence.

May the message of who He is drive all of us to ask as Isaiah first did, and then Saul, "What do You want me to do for You?"



In Christ,
