Daily Fountain Devotional 4 June 2026 TOPIC: God Overlooks Our Time of Ignorance
SCRIPTURE READING: Galatians 1:11-17
11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews’ religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it:
14 And profited in the Jews’ religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.
15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb, and called me by his grace,
16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:
17 Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus.
TODAY’S DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE
There is no doubt that the apostle Paul was a great man through whom the Lord sharpened the theology and spirituality of the Church. Interestingly, there was a time in Paul’s life when he was an enemy of the cross. He was an unrepentant promoter of Judaism and a zealous persecutor of the Church of Christ. But when God showed him mercy and turned his life around, he became a vessel of glory and honour in the hands of God and the Church till today still celebrates his great work in the Kingdom of Christ (vv.13-17).
Beloved, tere is no doubt that God is interested in turning every life around and making something great out of what the devil has corrupted through sin. God is focusing on your life; He wants to change you inside and outside. He wants you to surrender to Him and allow Him make you into the vessel that will bring His glory in your own world. As He used Paul to accomplish great things, so He desires to engage your life as an instrument of change and positive influence in your family, among your friends and in the society. He is calling you to cooperate with Him so He can bring the best out of you. There are greater things God wishes to use you achieve in this world. Allow Him to work His full purpose in you.
PRAYER: Father, give me the grace to make myself ready for your use in my world. Amen.
