  1. (Acts 9:10-18) Why do you think God sends Ananias to Paul rather than revealing directly? Why does Ananias argue with God? Why does it take courage to obey? What does Ananias do and say? Have you ever had God guide you to talk with someone and minister to him or her? Have you followed through? 1. God wants to show that he wants his church to grow, to show the 'need' of more than one person. This will prove to others that God uses all people. After all, God could have done all this himself. 2. I agree with many of the above statements as to why Ananias argued with God. I had one other thought also. I wonder if Ananias was astounded that God would use someone like Saul to carry out his work. Someone who had worked against Jesus. Jesus shows that he can use all people, as he has shown throughout the Bible. 3. It takes courage because of the fear of being rejected, humiliated, made fun of, etc. It is not easy to put yourself in a position to be criticized. 4. Ananias goes to Saul and calls him "Brother". He recognizes the change in him already. He heals his blindness. 5. Yes, I have had God guide me to minister to others through prayer and service to them. I have felt his nudges more often than I have followed through with them though.
