The Lord Gives Strength and Capability - July 31, 2017


Exodus 6:30
And Moses said before the Lord, Behold, I am of uncircumcised lips, and how shall Pharaoh hearken unto me?

Today's Thought: It is through the Lord's strength we can continue serving Him. 



In the movie, The Accountant, Ms. Medina was introduced by her superior. She said: As much as I'd like to take credit for this, I can't. Because this was a team effort comprised of long hours of good old-fashioned investigative work. It was an acknowledgment that it was not through her work that something was accomplished. 

It should also be the attitude of Christians. We should always acknowledge who gives us the strength to speak, to work, to do something for the Lord. Like Moses, we should know that we are sinners and we do not deserve to be the bearers of the goodness of the Lord, as well as His Good News of Salvation. It would be impossible to imagine that sinners like us could be used by a Holy God. 

It is a privilege to be part of the ministry of reconciliation. It is a badge of honor. More than that, it is also a privilege to know that a sinful sinner like you and me could be used by God for His glory. It is a thought that should keep us in the will of God.
