Reach out to somebody in the world and spread the message of his Glory
Today I am going to write about something that has been on my mind for a little while that I want to share with you.
For about two years now I have been actively involved in reaching out to people in the name of Jesus primarily through the Street Church ministry and I have been blessed with seeing peoples lives transformed through those efforts. Through all that time spent I can recount many stories but, until recently, I didn’t notice how my story had been transformed as well. On that day I decided to help out and volunteer for that ministry. I was not new to Christianity, I was new to the idea of a church with now walls though. During those times prior, all the works of the enemy worried me as a result. I believed in Christ but am ashamed to think that I might have been ashamed to admit it openly to people. I doubt many knew I even believed in Jesus Christ, I was not a “bad guy” and actually tried to be a “good guy”… I realize now that I was simply not as convicted as I am today.
Here I am today, 2 years later and I praise the living God for His works in me. In my service I have actually received a liberation that could not be conceived at the time. I stand today as a living testimony to my God’s grace, that He took a sinner such as me and empowered me to do His works. Today I am a seasoned spiritual warrior, today I walk from glory to glory and all things work together for my good in the name of Jesus Christ. Today I am unashamed, I have the name of Jesus on my truck, on my wife’s car, on our house, on my shirts, on my families shirts, I have marched through my city declaring His holy name and by His authority have turned back the gates of hell. I have been empowered because I chose to start speaking about Him, I have declared I am not ashamed.
So I am thankful to my Father in Heaven, I am thankful Jesus, I am thankful Holy Spirit. Thank you for showing me the highways and byway, for working with me all the while I thought I was working for You.
I encourage you the reader, reach out to somebody in the world and spread the message of his Glory… it will change your life for the better as much as theirs.
