When God’s Justice Is Questioned. Part [6] 10/14/2025 (Morning thought)

Acts 9:13 Then Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem: 14 And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on thy name.

There will be instances where the Christian may have to scratch his head as he, or she questions what God is or isn’t doing. This is what took place with the prophet Ananias, when Jesus instructed him to anoint Saul to be an apostle. The poor prophet scratched his head and he had serious misgivings about God’s wisdom in doing so, since Saul used to hunt down the early Christians, to jail and persecute them.

Acts 9:15 But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel: 16 For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake. 17 And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou came, hath sent me, that thou might receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.

So yes, there are times when you will not feel too good about obeying God or following His revealed will. It’s not about feeling good, it’s about obeying with the understanding that God always does, or permits that which is in the best interest of all. In other words, for us to make appendages, and additions or subtractions to His word, in order to satisfy our desires and our preferences, will put persons on a fast track to be at great odds with The Lord, whenever He does His strange acts.

Acts 9:19 And when he had received meat, he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus. 20 And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
