The Lord has need of it...

Jesus told 2 of His disciples

“Go into the village opposite you, where as you enter you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever sat. Loose it and bring it here. And if anyone asks you, ‘Why are you loosing it?’ thus you shall say to him, ‘Because the Lord has need of it.’” Luke 19:30-31

This passage in Luke came to my mind when I began to think of some opportunities that have begun to open up for me lately in regards to sharing my testimony and my faith in God with others. It seems like we always start to question God when He asks us to tell someone about Jesus or give an offering that seems too big for our faith or pray with someone who desperately needs it.

He wants us to step out. To be bold for Him. He wants us to spread the gospel and tell others of His great love. And we shouldn't hesitate.

Why? 

Because the Lord has need of us

So my question to you is this...will you loose your voice, your time, your talent, your finances, your life (which really isn't your own anyway for "you were bought with a price" 1 Corinthians 6:20) for the Lord?

Because He needs it.

Will you let His presence ride upon your shoulders into the streets wherever He asks you to go?

The Lord has been speaking to me about releasing my testimony now more than ever and I believe He is asking many of you to do the same.

He wants to use you for His glory.

Will you share your story of how God has delivered you, healed you, saved you, protected you, blessed you, cleansed you, restored you??? (...and the list of course goes on and on because He is such a good God!)


Why? 

Because the Lord has need of us

He needs us to point others to Him so that fellowship can be restored with the Father. Will you be a willing vessel for the Lord? Will you be carrier of His presence for all the world to see?

What are you waiting for? God is counting on you to carry Him into the streets so that others may see His glory and encounter His love.

Be bold. Be humble. Be a carrier of God's presence. Wherever you go.

We have lots of work to do and He needs every one to do their part in spreading the good news that Jesus gave His life for them so that they may come back to their Heavenly Father without the stains of sin! They need to know that Jesus makes all things new! We were born for such a time as this! The fields are white...the harvest is ready!

Be blessed!

Peace&Love.
