Saul traveled proudly toward Damascus with papers to hunt down and jail believers. He thought his official rules gave him total control over the road, completely blind to the reality that his angry mission was marching straight into a trap from heaven. Suddenly, a bright light from above flashed around him, instantly knocking the religious fighter flat on his back into the dirt. The Voice from the sky did not argue with his pride. Jesus stopped him in his tracks, changing the fiercest enemy hunter into a blind, shaking prisoner who realized his whole life was completely broken by the power of God.
“And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven: And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?” Acts 9:3-4
