BECOME THE WALKING AND TALKING BIBLE

“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” Matthew 5:16 KJV

Beloved, wherever you go, let people know you are a believer. Shine as light! Leave people better than the way you met them, even without them seeing your Bible. Become the walking and the talking Bible they may ever get to know. All the woman at the well of Samaria had to say was, “come see a man.’’ {John 4:29} That was all the message she had to talk about and today, what she said about Jesus is still being preached and taught all over the world. She was a true witness.

The Bible tells us in Acts 11 that Philip and the entire Apostles witnessed their faith even in the very face of persecution. The scriptures tell us in the verses 19 and 20 that they were scattered all over the place preaching the Word and planting churches in different cities. “And some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene, which, when they were come to Antioch, spake unto the Grecians, preaching the Lord Jesus.” (Acts 11:20 KJV)Beloved, everything in the scriptures, from Genesis to Revelation is all about Jesus. It is the unveiling of Jesus. When you preach and Jesus is not unveiled, faith will never come. I encourage you to preach Jesus everywhere you go.

You don’t need a pulpit to preach. The world out there is your pulpit. Find the time to tell someone about Jesus. And even when you reference the Old Testament, let Jesus come out of it, so that people will be grounded and established in the Lord. Let me remind you that you are not alive today by accident, but for a specific assignment. God has positioned you as the light of the world. So let your light shine for all to see. God does not want you to use your faith only to receive material blessings, but to also use your faith to snatch people out of the hands of the devil.
