The governor of Cyprus sent for Paul and Barnabas because he wanted to hear the word of God. Elymas, a sorcerer, tried to turn him away from the faith. Paul told Elymas that the Lord’s hand was upon him and that he would be blind for a time. Darkness fell on him at once. The man who had tried to lead the governor away now needed someone to lead him by the hand. The governor saw what happened and believed, astonished at the Lord’s teaching. Don’t let anyone talk you out of hearing what God has to say.
“Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.” —Acts 13:12
