1 Corinthians 15:9 For I am the least of the apostles and do not even deserve to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

Paul was one of the zealous Jews who would persecute the Christians at every opportunity – until he heard the truth for himself.

Once we heard the gospel truth, we know in our hearts it is the truth and we find out more!

God does not turn people away because they have done things wrong or have persecuted Christians…

God turns people away because they refuse to believe in Him!

Psalm 119:15 I meditate on your precepts and consider your ways.

What do you do with your bible? Is it used as a decoration on your book shelf, or do you read it?

If you read it, what do you do with the words you read from it?

God doesn’t just want us to read the bible because it is His Word, He wants us to hear what the words say, think about them, keep them in our hearts and share them with our neighbours!

Genesis 22:12 ‘Do not lay a hand on the boy,’ he said. ‘Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.’

God may ask you some difficult things, but He is not going to put you in harms way if you are willing to obey Him!

We may think all is lost when we do something for God we think is impossible, but God has already made the plan for it to succeed.

Trust wholly in God and allow Him to fulfil His promises before you give in to the world!

Mark 6:13 They drove out many demons and anointed with oil many people who were ill and healed them.

How could the disciples go out and heal the ill and drive out demons from people?

They listened to Christ and obeyed Him. When God asks us to step forward and do things, things which we may doubt or be afraid of, we can be sure it is the right thing to do!

God wants us to succeed in working with Him. He wants us to have an abundant life. He has a plan. We just need to follow that plan!
