The door to greatness opened with the keys of obedience*

Shabbat Shalom from Kent, London. 

*The door to greatness opened with the keys of obedience* 

Acts 9:17 AMP- So Ananias left and entered the house, and he laid his hands on Saul and said, “Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you came to Damascus, has sent me so that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit in order to proclaim Christ to both Jews and Gentiles.” 

Ananias of Damascus is a significant figure in the New Testament, specifically in the Book of Acts. He has been sent by Jesus to Saul to convert him as Paul, later who has become Paul the Apostle. He was playing a pivotal role in teaching us Jesus's sovereignty over the church and His ability to call and commission individuals for His service.

Even though Ananias was aware of Saul's past persecution of Christians, the potential danger to go to meet Saul, it is a testament to his obedience, faith and courage. This step of faith in Obedidence subsequently led to the series of incident and impact to the Kingdom of God to proclaim Christ to both Jews and Gentiles to emphasize the universal nature of God's salvation and the Gospel message to the globe.

The transformation from a persecutor(Saul) to a preacher (Paul) highlights the Power of God's Grace and the importance of obedience to His call.

Paul's life is also a testament to the transformative power of obedience and the incredible opportunities that can result from following God's plan. His conversion is a prime example of greatness achieved through tireless efforts in proclaiming the Gospel,  Foundational and Leadership role in the early church.

Both of these Testimonies are reflecting to the power of obedience to open the doors to greatness and to operate in the scale at which God has set up in advance. Hallelujah. 😊☺️

Peace be upon The State of Israel and Us.🙏 
Shalom. 🙏🙏
In His Grip...🙏🙏🙏

God has us where He wants us - Breaking Saul, Becoming Paul

God has us where He wants us - Breaking Saul, Becoming Paul Reference: Acts 9 Saul, once a fervent religious extremist, was transformed when God chose to claim him and place him precisely where He intended. The journey from Jerusalem to Damascus holds every detail of this profound transformation. It was an intense, 140-mile mission driven by fury to eradicate the followers of Christ—a mission sanctioned by the chief priest and spiritual leader but not approved by the Lord. God will halt what He does not permit , and so Saul was abruptly stopped, stunned by a blinding flash of light. In that moment, Jesus commanded him to go into the city, where he would be told what to do next. God has us where He wants us.... Saul had order, but in a split second, the very people he was leading ended up guiding him after a heavenly encounter caused him to lose his sight. Realizing he had been doing the exact opposite of what was right in the name of religion, he experienced a relationship with God for...
