Running with Jesus
Acts 1:8 "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth."
Right before Jesus ascended into Heaven He gave us the great commission to go! He said go to your home towns, surrounding areas and then to the farther parts of the world. It is our mission to share the gospel.
One of the hardest parts it seems is for us to talk about Jesus to others around us. Having Christ as savior is the most important thing man can ever posses yet we are so selfish and unconcerned for a lost and dying world. We want Him to help us and scream for help but we act powerless to tell others.
He tells us you will receive power to witness. Problem, we are like a lamp that has a cord but is not plugged in, useless! Daily we write our own agendas and leave no margin for witness, we don't even think that the person I am talking to today may be lost and we may be the last person they see on this earth! Witness has to be willful obedience to the Lord's last command to go. We text, email and talk about everything under the sun but never share the love of Jesus. And today Satan is trying to use laws to shut us down. But we must remember we are given power through the Holy Spirit that is in us to help us! So let's focus and tell one person about the love of Jesus today! Watch the power glow through you. As we do we become stronger.
Lord, show us that one soul who needs to hear God loves you and died for you. As we plan our day order it in such a way we can operate through Your Spirit guiding our every step. Thank You in advance for what You want to do in our lives today. Help us learn to run in Your Spiritual guidance! Help me start in my house and move outward.
And for that one out there this morning that needs this, remember God loves you and sent His Son to die for you! See all it will take is one push of your share button to empower you to reach all your Facebook friends with the gospel!
Tomorrow: He is coming back!
