You Shall:
We shall be witnesses:
Acts 1:8
8 but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon
you; and you shall be My witnesses both in
This is not a suggestion; it is a declaration
of truth. We unquestionably will be His witnesses once His Holy Spirit has come
upon us. It does not say that we will go door to door witnessing (though that
is a viable possibility), but that we will be His witnesses. We won’t be able
to help ourselves. His power will shine through us and be a witness to others
of what God has done for us and can do for them. We need to overcome any fear
of what others will say or do. We also need training in how to share with
others about Jesus.
If you could hear God speak to you, I believe this is what He
would say:
"I
have chosen for you to be the ones that spread My Word to the world. I could
have chosen angels, but instead chose My people. People would have been afraid
of angels and come unto Me out of fear. But when you spread My Word, they come
to Me out of love and desire for Me. When you go forth in My Spirit, I shall
empower you with the very power of Heaven. This is the same power that raised
My Son from the grave and seated Him beside Me. This power is not for you to
think that you are something great but to bring others to Me. When you go in My
Spirit, I go with you and empower you to do My will and to bring others into My
Kingdom. You will lay hands on the sick, and they shall be made whole so that
they will want to enter into My Kingdom. Trust in Me to provide whatever you
need when you go forth in My name and in My Spirit.”
85. Because I have
received the power of the Holy Spirit, I shall be His witness wherever I go
throughout the world.
These are a only some of the results
in our lives that are our destiny. They are there to make our lives what they
should be and to cause others to long to come into His Kingdom. We need to put
them into practice and not smother the workings of the Holy Spirit as He shapes
us into the image of Jesus.
