SEE, HEAR, TASTE, TOUCH, SMELL.
Oh the
FREEDOM to use your
SENSES
in whatever way you like.
But is that really FREEDOM?
Eve SAW a juicy red apple hanging from a forbidden tree.
Eve HEARD the tempter's words giving her permission.
Eve TOUCHED and picked it from the tree.
Eve TASTED the forbidden fruit.
Eve LEARNED a lesson that day about what
FREEDOM is not.
Hmm~
David SAW a beautiful woman who wasn't his wife.
David HEARD her name was Bathsheba and that she was married.
David TOUCHED something that was not his.
David TASTED the fruit of a choice gone bad.
David LEARNED a lesson that day about what FREEDOM is not.
Hmm~
Saul HEARD the voice of the One whom he was persecuting ~
"Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?"
"Who are you, Lord?" Saul asked.
"I am JESUS, whom you are persecuting," HE replied (Acts 9:4).
Saul SAW that he couldn't see, the moment he was blinded.
Saul was TOUCHED by the hands of Ananias so that he could see again.
Saul TASTED FREEDOM.
Saul LEARNED a lesson that day about what freedom is~
The power of
Being SEEN
Being HEARD
Being TOUCHED
by
JESUS
in the midst of when he was acting
SENSELESS.
Saul
LEARNED
to
TRUST
&
to
FOLLOW
the
ONE
who
TOUCHED
his heart
that set him FREE,
that
transformed him from Saul to Paul.
The Paul who was now
F.R.E.E.~
FEARLESS REDEEMED ETERNALLY ENLIGHTENED.
The Paul who penned the words ~
"Whatever you have
LEARNED
or
RECEIVED
or
HEARD
from me, or
SEEN
in me—
PUT INTO PRACTICE.
And the GOD of PEACE will be with you" (Philippians 4:9).
All because
Paul
came to his
SENSES
the moment,
JESUS ignited his
SENSES.
“If the SON sets you FREE you will be FREEE indeed (John 8:36).
How are your SENSES?
What do you need to
PUT INTO PRACTICE
that
Paul LEARNED
that
Paul RECEIVED
that
Paul HEARD
that
Paul SAW,
because he was
BLINDED BY THE TRUTH?
For when
you are
BLINDED BY THE TRUTH,
"HOW CAN YOU NOT SEE GOD"
