"Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth does not become weary or tired. His understanding is inscrutable. He gives strength to the weary, and to him who lacks might He increases power." -Isaiah 40:28-29 (NASB)
I remember playing the telephone game as a kid. A message would start with one person and would be passed on through whispers until it either reached the end of a line of people or around a circle of people. At the end, the message wasn't the same as the original message. The person at the beginning might ask, "How did you get that message?"
When we are preparing to share God's glory, we might find ourselves in the same situation. We may think that everyone has heard of the miracles of God or have heard the story of Jesus' sacrifice for our sins, but this isn't always the case. Even if people have heard about the events before, their hearts may not have been ready to hear the true meaning of the events. Whenever we share the Good News with others, we need to be prepared to share God's great understanding, power, strength, and love. We need to be sure we're not relying on the message being passed on from others, we need to make it heard ourselves!
Know God's greatness and glory, then make it heard!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for all that You do in my life. Thank You for using Your power and understanding to help me and to save me from my sin. Allow me to make Your message heard through my words and actions. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
