TESTIFY TO THE TRUTH

TESTIFY TO THE TRUTH 8/16/12 John 18:37 Jesus answered, “You say I am a King. In fact, the reason I was born and came into the world is to testify to the truth…” Think about that verse for a minute. Jesus came into this sin filled world to testify to the truth. As Christians it is our job to also testify to the truth. When we know that the Lord is alive and at work in our lives we need to be willing to share that with others so that they may taste and see that the Lord is good. (Psalm 34:8) I am honored have the opportunity to speak at a conference in October. The theme of the conference is Testify to the Truth. The thing that I love about that is I will be speaking and testifying to what the Lord has done in my life. I will be doing what He has called me to do and that is my heart’s desire. I want to be a living sacrifice as Paul tells us in Romans 12:1. I don’t want to live for myself, but for the Lord and the Lord alone. Speaking is one way that we can testify to the truth, but the one that will speak volumes to others is living it out. You can say one thing, but act another way. The world doesn’t always care about what they hear, but more so what they see. Are you living a life that testifies to the truth? I encourage you to think about the things that you need to change in your life so that others may see Christ in and through you.
