Ready to Share
Acts 21:37-22:16
Key
Verse: “Paul
answered, “I am a Jew, from Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen of no
ordinary city. Please let me speak to the people. (Acts 21:39 NIV)”
Paul
was willing and ready to share his testimony at anytime. As believers
in Jesus Christ we should always be ready to share how Jesus has
transformed our lives. God is always at work in our lives, doing
miraculous things and blessing us in our day to day lives. We, like
Paul, should be ready, willing to share with those around us about
the ways God has blessed our lives. We, like Paul, should be
observant and see when the opportunity when is occurs and seize the
moment when someone is ready to hear what we have to say. Being ready
to share and vigilant to notice when there is an opportune time to
speak, are two things all Christians should always be doing. Part of
being ready is knowing what to say. In what ways has God worked
miraculously in your life in the past? In what ways has God blessed
you recently? Think about how you would explain these works of God to
someone who is not a Christian. Think about someone in your life who
might benefit from knowing how God has been working in your life and
pray for an opportunity to share this with them.
Prayer:
God,
you are amazing. You have radically changed my life. Daily you bring
good and wonderful things into my life. Help me to see how you are at
work. There are people all around me who need to hear about how you
are at work, transforming and changing me. Help me to know what to
say to them and when to say it. Help me to always be looking for
opportunities and be ready to speak into those moments. Help me to
always be ready to share about you with others in my life. Amen.
