Witnessing

Witnessing

My Question for God

How does God transform my testimony into the greatest story I’ll ever tell?

A Moment with God

Moses told his father-in-law everything the LORD had done to Pharaoh and Egypt on behalf of Israel.

Exodus 18:8-11

Has the LORD redeemed you? Then speak out! Tell others he has redeemed you from your enemies.

Psalm 107:2

[Jesus] told them, “Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone.”

Mark 16:15

How beautiful are the feet of messengers who bring good news!

Romans 10:15

God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline. So never be ashamed to tell others about our Lord.

2 Timothy 1:7-8

A friend casually mentions that she enjoyed a terrific meal at a new restaurant and thinks you would like it too. A stranger overhears you and your spouse discussing whether or not a certain movie would be good to rent for a family night and offers that his kids thought it was great. Both the friend and the stranger are witnesses. Although the word witness brings to mind images of courtrooms or awkward religious proselytizing, to witness simply means to tell about something you have experienced. All who believe in God share the privilege and responsibility of being witnesses. Believing in God isn’t about “getting in” to some exclusive group. It’s about experiencing something so wonderful that you can’t wait to invite others to experience it too. Witnessing is really the practice of sharing your divine moments with others. Always be ready to tell the story of how you met and grew to love Jesus. That story is the greatest story you can tell. Who knows? Perhaps sharing your own story will be the pathway to a divine moment in another’s life.

Divine Promise

Those who are wise will shine as bright as the sky, and those who lead many to righteousness will shine like the stars forever.

Daniel 12:3
