TOPIC: Know What Christ Has Done For You (TREM Devotional 29 August 2021)

“And he spake boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus, and disputed against the Grecians: but they went about to slay him.” Acts 9:29. KJV

The book of Acts 9:27 talks about a religious and arrogant man called Saul who had never bowed to any man. He was a Pharisee and was blameless concerning the law. He understood the law and as far as he was concerned, he kept the law. He also believed that was what gave him the right to defend the law. He was one man that championed the persecution against the church. He was so powerful that his fear and dread swept through the land but one day, he saw something bigger than him when he encountered Jesus.

Each time I read about the encounter, I am awed at the greatness of our God. Imagine a man like Saul, so confident of himself bowing down and calling Him Lord even before He introduced Himself. We see this in verse 5: Acts 9:5 (KJV): “And he said, Who art thou, Lord?” That is the bigness of the God you serve. Immediately after the encounter, Paul counted everything he had ever achieved as dung. He discovered that Jesus is the real deal! He did not care about the persecution he would face. He could not care less about what the Jews would think. He went all out for Jesus.

Throughout the book of Acts of the Apostles, we read about how Paul spoke boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus, disputing against the Grecians despite their plot to kill him. He refused to be intimidated because he knew clearly what Jesus Christ had done. Child of God, when you come to a clear realization of the finished work of Calvary, no one will beg you to serve this God. If you are still playing hide and seek in the service of God, it is a clear evidence that you do not know what He did for you. Take time to meditate on the finished work of Calvary and catch a glimpse of what He has done for you.
