FAITH CAPSULE: Answer not to what the word calls you that you do not know.
Acts 9
What is your name?
A name one answers to without understanding shall possibly limit such in life not to live at the assignment of God.
Are you being called by a militating challenge before you?
God is the unchanging changer.
God is perfect to reverse every irreversible.
Regardless of any challenge, God delivers.
He alone remembers with favor and visits with salvation.
God will remember you at His appointed time, and you will have a name change to the glory of God.
God sent through Mary to Elizabeth:
Luke 1:36 records, “Now indeed, Elizabeth your relative has also conceived a son in her old age; and this is now the sixth month for her who was called barren.”
No one had any idea about the intervention of God for Elizabeth.
At the appointed time of her visitation by God, the mockery barren changed to the miracle of God.
Elizabeth became the mother of John the Baptist.
After Jesus, there was none like John in the Bible days.
Watch, God shall visit you as He visited Elizabeth and turned her story around for His glory.
Mark 10:46-47 records the walk of Jesus and His disciples: “Now they came to Jericho. As He went out of Jericho with His disciples and a great multitude, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the road begging. And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”
Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, was changed by his world to blind Bartimaeus.
On his day of visitation, he disregarded many from keeping him quiet. Many warned him to be quiet, but he cried out more until Jesus gave him a standstill attention.
The visitation of Jesus changed from blind Bartimaeus to one that followed Jesus.
The Bible documents, “Then Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest 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.” (Acts 9:1-2)
He was Saul, the adversary of the brethren.
Jesus located him on his way to wicked acts against followers of Jesus.
In that encounter with Jesus, the name of Saul changed to Paul the Apostle.
Paul changed the answer from er to an agent of deliverance.
Whatever the world calls you without understanding, God alone knows it all.
THE LACK OF UNDERSTANDING limits understanding of what God will.
Give yourself to God, and God will reveal who you are.
Be encouraged in the Lord to live to the fulfillment of your destiny in Christ Jesus.
Prayer for today: Ask God to remember you, that He visit you with salvation.
