Acts 26:14 KJV
And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue Saul,Saul, why persecutest thou me?
it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.
Don't try it, you and yours will be put to eternal disgrace this time! The LORD has been watching you closely. Any mistake you make this time, there you had it from Him. Our sincere advice to you, don't try it, it will be regrettable. What you have not seen, will come to you from the LORD. It would be very hard to digest the outcome. He has been waiting patiently on the sidelines for a great demonstration of His power. Don't ask for it, you will regret it! You cannot fight with the Lord Jesus Christ and get away unpunished. Either you will become a true child of God like Saul turned to become Paul or you will be severely punished for all that you have done and are still doing. It's hard to kick against the pricks and not get hurt. When we talk about hurt here, it's real hurt and is not just human kind of hurt. Eternally, you and yours will be hurt! No one will be able to save you after that. No amount of weeping, wailing or gnashing of teeth can save you. Like Saul, you may join the whole world to kick against the pricks but remember always that the outcome will be; you will be terribly hurt by your own kicking. You were brave enough to raise your leg and kick the LORD. You must face the music now, if you are brave enough to do that. You did things that showed you do not fear the LORD. You always thought that you were greater than the LORD but your time has finally come. You have walked into it foolishly. You will be eternally proven that you were wrong in all your ways in the matters of the LORD. Either way, be ready for what's coming your way! All that you have been doing will be taken into account now. You would have to answer for everything you have done from day one till now. Your heart has become exceedingly proud and you always thought that you were right and others were wrong. You will be proven otherwise. Go stubbornly ahead and join the world and become like the world. Join them to do evil and yet use His holy name to bring it to further disrepute. We can't imagine the punishment you are going to receive for all your sins. You have taken the things of the LORD too lightly, far too long! You deserve what's coming for you this time. Even when you cry out loud, the LORD will not hear you anymore. You always insisted on your own evil ways. You never wanted to repent of your sins even when you were strictly warned against them. You delighted yourself in the things of the world, the fame you could get from it and you did not care about His holy name. You used it, abused it and continue to misuse it for your own evil purposes. You have never shown any respect for His holy name. You always thought that His name was as filthy as the name that your filthy parents gave you. You are going to learn it now, for the first time in your whole lifetime. Be ready for what's coming, you who have the evil spirit of Jezebel and the evil Dragon.
1 Kings 18:16-19
So Obadiah went to meet Ahab and told him, and Ahab went to meet Elijah. When he saw Elijah, he said to him, "Is that you, you troubler of Israel?" "I have not made trouble for Israel," Elijah replied. "But you and your father's family have. You have abandoned the LORD's commands and have followed the Baals. Now summon the people from all over Israel to meet me on Mount Carmel. And bring the four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal and the four hundred prophets of Asherah, who eat at Jezebel's table."
