Acts 9:3-8 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

³As Saul drew near to Damascus on his journey, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him.

⁴He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?”

⁵“Who are You, Lord?” Saul asked. “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,” He replied.

⁶“Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.”

⁷The men traveling with Saul stood there speechless. They heard the voice but did not see anyone.

⁸Saul got up from the ground, but when he opened his eyes he could not see a thing. So they led him by the hand into Damascus.
