Sharing Freely

God will give you the right words at the right time.

Matthew 10:19b 

All three of the synoptic Gospels contain Jesus’ promise that when we need to testify about our faith, God will give us the right words at the right time. (Matthew 10:19, Mark 13:11 and Luke 12:11) While the context of Jesus’ teaching is in times of persecution, the principle applies to the whole of our life.

It has been my experience that most Christians are very reluctant to share about their personal experience with the faithfulness of God. For some, this reluctance is because they are acutely aware they are lacking in a personal relationship with Christ Jesus. While the Hound of Heaven is relentless in His pursuit of us, He never will force himself on us. We are led by the still small voice of God (1 Kings 19:12), not a booming voice shouting through a megaphone. Our Abba Father offers us an intimate, personal relationship; we need only say yes and take His hand. But take His hand we must, or there is no relationship.

For others, even though they have a personal experience of God, even though they have experienced God’s Spirit bearing witness to their spirit that they are indeed His beloved child (Romans 8:16), even so, they still suffer from a scarcity mentality and don’t believe they have enough to share with others.

My Takeaway: Jesus’ promise of God’s faithfulness to give us the right words at the right time, gives us the confidence to freely share our experience of God. When we do share, others will see that even though we are like fragile clay jars, we have this light shining in our hearts, and they will see Christ Jesus in our mortal flesh. To God be the Glory!

My book on prayer,

First Think, Then Pray

(Selah is a word that appears in the Book of Psalms that I often use as the Complimentary Closing in my correspondence. Its meaning, as I use the word, is to pause and think about these things.)
