The man who is born with a talent which he was meant to use finds his greatest happiness in using it. --Unknown But life is worth nothing unless I use it for doing the work assigned to me by the Lord Jesus. --Acts 20:24 It is true many who claim the name of Jesus do little to nothing to serve in His name. But many more of us who do serve should realize the importance of our being able to "boast of what the Lord is doing". 2 Cor. 10:13 13 How can we brag about things that no one can evaluate? Instead, we will only brag about what God has given us to do
When you are asked to give an account, what will you say?
PLEASE, take a little while to think about your answer now and rehearse giving an account by sending us a response to this question. Here are some things to ponder as you formulate a response: Has Jesus, made a difference in your life? Has Jesus in your life made a difference in other people's lives? Can you describe a particular ministry work you are involved in? Do you serve in a local assembly? Do fellowship with your family of God regularly or have you somehow forsaken the assembly? (Heb. 10:25) We are not asking to make you feel guilty. We are asking to encourage you to be prepared to give an account to anyone who asks for proof of the hope you claim. Satan, like a roaring lion is seeking whom he may devour. Our testimonies of how and why we live our lives for God may help set someone else free. Remember, “We are over comers but the blood of the Lamb AND the words of our testimony” As we testify, we maintain our freedom also! Can I get a witness? Would you testify and claim victory for the name of Jesus in your life? www.forministry.com/usmicogcllvcog Revelation 12 (God's WORD Translation)
10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, "Now the salvation, power, kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Messiah have come. The one accusing our brothers and sisters, the one accusing them day and night in the presence of our God, has been thrown out. 11 They won the victory over him because of the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimony. They didn't love their life so much that they refused to give it up. |
