April 13th 2025 "ACTS: Chapter 9"

In Acts 9, we see that following Jesus often comes with opposition, just as Paul faced after his conversion. His story reminds us that resistance can be a sign of faithful obedience. We also learn that no one is beyond the reach of God’s grace—Paul, once a fierce enemy of the church, became a powerful servant of Christ. Finally, we’re called to pray for our enemies, trusting God to do the work of transformation. So take heart—opposition may come, but God’s grace is greater, and His love reaches even the hardest hearts.
