TO BE IT, IS TO LIVE IT!
“…he that hath seen Me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, ‘Shew us the Father?†John 14:9b
If you want to tell someone how well something works, it’s best if you’ve used it yourself. If you want people to believe something, it’s more effective if they can see something. The Word of God tells us that we’re witnesses; we’re to be ambassadors for Christ; we are representatives. A representative acts as a spokesperson or an agent. We have a very important position and responsibility in this Christian walk. It’s not enough to just tell someone, ’God is good!’ It’ not enough to tell people, ’Jesus loves you!’ It’ not enough to tell someone that ’God can change you!’ We must display God’s goodness, show Jesus’ love, and we must live the changed life! Be a witness!
To BE it, is to live it! We must live what we believe; live what we are confessing; and live what we are preaching. Jesus said, ’he that has seen Me has seen the Father.’ People should look at us and see the Father in us; People should see the Christ in us; they should see the life in us and the light shining from us. Your walk should be your witness. If you are shouting how great the Word is, then live the Word, apply the Word, walk the Word, saturate yourself in the Word…then you are one with the Word and the Word is one with you. You become a walking witness; a living testimony; an ambassador and representative….You will be it, because you live it!
So today, purpose in your heart to be a witness. Be the Word in every word you speak, everything you do, every decision you make, everyplace that you go.
Love, forgive, have compassion, be patient, be kind, have faith, be good, be gentle and peaceable, and have joy.
Be the Word to somebody today! You may be the only Bible they ever read!
“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.†Matthew 5:16
