The Power of Your Story
OPENING PRAYER:
Father, help us to see the power of our story and to share it with others as a testimony of Your grace and love.
"They triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death."
Revelation 12:11 (NIV)
REFLECT:
The message emphasized the importance of sharing our story as a way to open doors for the gospel. Our personal testimony is a powerful tool in pointing others to Jesus. Pastor Jarred Peine shared how John's transformation became a testimony of God's grace, impacting those around him.
Revelation speaks of the power of testimony in overcoming the enemy. Our stories of transformation and redemption are not just personal victories; they are declarations of God's power and love. Jarred encouraged us to share our struggles and God's work in our lives, as these stories can resonate with others and offer hope.
Consider your own story. How has God transformed your life? Jarred reminded us that our mess becomes our message, and our past becomes our platform. Sharing our story can be the key to opening someone's heart to the gospel.
As we reflect on our journey, let us be bold in sharing our testimony. May our stories of God's grace and love inspire others to seek Him and find hope in His promises.
I WILL STATEMENT:
I will take my next step to reach my ONE this week.
CLOSING PRAYER:
Gracious God, thank You for the story You are writing in our lives. Help us to share it boldly as a testimony of Your grace and love. May our stories inspire others to seek You and find hope in Your promises. Amen.
