Memorize: Daniel 4:2 International Standard Versions (ISV)
« It gives me great pleasure to tell about the signs and wonders that the Most High God has done for me. »
Read: Matthew 10:32-33 New Living Translations (NLT)
32 “Everyone who acknowledges me publicly here on earth,
I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven.
33 But everyone who denies me here on earth, I will also deny before my Father in heaven.
Message:
Children are testifiers. If you give a child a gift, he or she would tell everyone about it.
Children also boast a lot about their parents and the benefits they get from them.
If you have just got a car, it is most likely that your child will want you to take him or her to school in it so as to show off to their friends. If you give a child a gift, if possible, he or she will tell the whole world about it.
Do you tell everyone what God has done for you or are you ashamed to talk about Him in public?
Do you share testimonies of His wondrous works that will make others want to serve your God?
I tell stories because I cannot help but brag about the things my God has done.
These testimonies have encouraged people; some say “If God can do this, then I will serve Him too”.
There was a couple who fought every night, so much so that they became a subject of mockery to their neighbors. This went on until someone invited them to The Redeemed Christian Church of God.
Both of them gave their lives to Christ and the fighting stopped. That night, their neighbors did not sleep because they were waiting for them to fight as usual; however they were disappointed.
The neighbors watched for some more days until one of them summoned the courage to ask the couple why they had not been fighting. They told him that they had met Jesus at a Church; the neighbor said “Really? I must follow you to that Church”. Before long, they introduced all their neighbors to Christ.
Your testimony is powerful enough to win souls for Christ, The people of the world brag about their witchdoctors, saying things like “There is no problem this Baba cannot solve, he solved this and that problem” and they end up winning their friends over.
Your God is greater than any witchdoctor; indeed, He created all things, including the witchdoctors In Jeremiah 32:27 KJV, He says:
« …I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: is there anything too hard for me? »
Why then can’t you brag about Him too and use your testimonies to win souls for Him
Why not tell someone going through a difficult time that your God can solve that problem?
Don’t keep quiet about the things God has done for you; use them to win souls for His kingdom.
Action point: Make sure you share testimony of something God did for you recently with an unbeliever today.
