Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord. And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight and enquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of Tarsus, for behold, he prayeth, And hath seen in a vision a man named Ananias coming in and putting his hand on him, that he might receive his sight. Then Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem. And here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on thy name. But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way, for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles and kings and the children of Israel. For I will shew him how great things he must suffer.(experience).for my name's sake. And Ananias went his way and entered into the house and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Emmanuel, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that you might receive your sight and be filled with the Holy Ghost. And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales. And he received sight forthwith and arose and was baptized. And when he had received meat.(food, not necessarily animal food), he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus. And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God."

Proverbs 19:21 "There are many devices in a man's heart, nevertheless the counsel of the Lord, that shall stand." Jonah's story. Paul too. And from Jeremiah:.Jeremiah 32:38-42.

That's why it is important to keep ourselves up on the Creator's mind in us:.Ephesians 1:18 "The eyes of your understanding being enlightened, that ye may know what is the hope of his calling and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints is." Philippians 2:5 "Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Emmanuel."
