“…immediately I conferred not with flesh and
blood:” Galatians
1:16
Don’t undue in doubt, by way of flesh and
blood, what you acted upon in faith.
Paul confers his calling by God for the sharing of the gospel and
responds without hesitation or doubt. It
will be of little avail for those around us having Christ revealed to us, if He
is not also revealed in us. Paul
consented immediately to God’s will, not allowing doubt to confuse, squander or
delay the working of the spirit in his life.
What God calls us to by faith, Satan’s effort is to disrupt with doubt. Paul was only responding to what God had
already ordained; Jeremiah 1:5 “Before I formed
thee in the belly I knew thee and before thou camest forth out of the womb I
sanctified thee and I ordained thee…” Because of God’s intimate knowledge and
love for you, He has already prepared and empowered you for what he has called
you to. Events or life may appear inescapable
at times, but men have always two choices, respond in faith with God’s
direction or traverse in doubt.
It is said that the Christian life has not
been tried and found to be un-wanting; it most often appears and found
difficult and thus left untried.
