Witnesses For Jesus

(Living Each Day As A Steward!)

Scripture Reading: “Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us”

(2 Corinthians 5:20).

God wants us to be devoted to telling others about his precious Son, Jesus, who suffered and died and rose again so that we could have eternal life with him. We are called to be Christ’s ambassadors. The Great Commission that Jesus gave to his disciples is our commission as well.  God “desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth” (1 Timothy 2:4), and he gives us, his stewards, the privilege and responsibility to share that truth, the Gospel, with all people. He uses us as his hands, feet, and mouth. We are his instruments through which others hear and learn about Jesus and his love, grace, and mercy. By word and actions, we are to acquaint those around us with the wonders of God’s love and redeeming power of his Son’s death upon the Cross. Through our prayers and financial support, we help to spread God’s Word to all parts of the world.  Let us be mindful that, as we live each day as stewards, we are “witnessing for Jesus.”

Application: Are there neighbors, fellow workers, or friends with whom I can share my testimony?

Prayer: Dear Jesus, place within me confidence and boldness to proclaim the Good News to those around me.   Amen.
