Devotions on F.I.R.E. Year OneSample
But I was let down in a basket through a window in the wall, and escaped from his hands (2 Corinthians 11:33).
Do you share your personal testimony with humility?
Paul is the greatest missionary who ever lived, yet before coming to Jesus, he persecuted the church. Shortly after being saved, “he preached the Christ in the synagogues, that He is the Son of God” (Acts 9:20). Consequently, his life is imperiled, and “the disciples took him by night and let him down through the wall in a large basket” (Acts 9:25). The apostle himself shares this story to the Corinthian believers at the culmination of 2 Corinthians 11. Paul defends his apostleship by listing the many difficulties he faced and endured in ministry, which verifies his authenticity. The embattled apostle humbly communicates God's power through his infirmities. Let’s do likewise.
Employment Point: Share your personal testimony, exalting the power of God through human frailty.
