I have committed to memorizing scripture to always have a word in my mind when the occassion arises. Yesterday I wrote down a verse and today as I was saying it over and over I suddenly felt an wonderful awareness that Jesus was with me. I began to pray the verse back to Him and then began to understand what it was saying. Here is the verse:
1 Corintians 1:5 In Him in every respect you were enriched in full power and readieness of speech and complete knowledge and illumination.
So as I prayed acknowledging to our Father God that as I abide in Jesus Christ I will in every respect be enriched in His full power! I will be ready for speech with His full knowledge and will illuminate Him!
Wow! How Awsome is that! I am taking that as a promise! If I abide in HIM I will have His full power! His full knowledge and readiness to speak! Not to leave the best for last to say I will illuminate Christ!
Jesus said we would be His witnesses but He also said I will send you the Comforter. God's Holy Spirit abides in us! So why should we not illuminate Christ? It can only be that we choose to illuminate ourselves at times.
Let us not grow weary of the race but abide wholly in Christ who will enrich us with all that we need to be the very witness He has called us to be!
Keep the Faith,
In His service,
Opal
