"Beyond 'The Call'!"
Like the Apostle Paul, as I and every Believer in Christ who has received their 'Calling' has also received God's Gift of Power through HIS Spirit to edify, teach, and empower us, Holy Spirit also Directs me into the 'Purpose' for which HIS Kingdom is to be advanced in the earth.
The Apostle Paul could just as well have left the city of Damascus with a 'Sense and Feeling' of being 'Closer to God' as some Believers in Christ have done, but then there would have been much less known of what the New Testament church accomplished for a 'Increase in God's Kingdom'!
'Seeing and Hearing' the 'Voice of God', in such a dramatic way, must not just be a coincidence of 'Experiencing God', but this 'Touch' must instill into my heart as well as other Believers, a driving ambition to fulfill that 'Purpose for which God has Called'.
'Receiving Sight' from the Most Gracious Hand of God, proclaimed such a Loving and Powerful testimony as was the Apostle Paul's, but also burned within the 'Heart' of a man, an 'Obligation' of sorts, where one man who was once headed down a 'Road' that would ultimately lead to 'Death and Eternal Separation' from the Very Presence of God, would Declare both the 'WORD and WORKs' of the Gospel to many people along the way in his life's journey.
The Apostle Paul left Damascus and began 'Seeking and Listening' to Holy Spirit, while also being 'Taught and Prepared' by God's WORD into that area of fulfillment of God's Purpose, where he diligently strived to live each and every day 'Beyond the Destiny and Calling' upon his life.
Where the phrase, 'Nothing Lost, Nothing Gained', carries with it the stigma of an unfilled committment to a 'Purpose', I must never be found guilty of believing, 'Whatever Will Be, Will Be' nor being silent in thinking, 'That stuff about 'Witnessing and Teaching Others' must be God's 'Calling and Destiny' for SOMEONE ELSE's Life!!!
More of who Christ IS to me!
MORE like HIM,
Some day SOON, with HIM I will BE!!!
