One of the greatest ways to INSIST that others know the source of your life is by letting God's truth govern you, and not the circumstances of each day. Jesus did not allow the enemy to govern His life. No! He loved, did good, blessed, prayed, gave, offered, and was always kind and merciful to the unthankful and evil people of this world. When you allow His truth to lead you, and not the response or attitudes of others, you will be identified as children of God. Now as this happens... you want to INSIST that they know why you are the way you are.
At times they'll desire to know why you live with such hope, joy, and gladness... because they'll see your contentment and peace. And when you live to know Him and make Him known, you'll INSIST that they know the source of your hope and righteousness.
Faith comes by hearing... therefore, you must be intentional to tell your story and the beauty behind the principle that governs your life. YOUR LIFESTYLE IS NOT ENOUGH... it's used by the Lord to OPEN the door for you to speak. And apart from intentionally communicating with those who observe your life, you cannot lead them to the One who made you a mouthpiece for His glory. You must INSIST that they know His name, what He, by His grace has done for you, and what He's done for them, too. It will bring GLORY to the LORD... and richly bless them and their lives!
Oh, glory... may it be that goodness and mercy follow us... all the days of our lives. Be strong, my friends, and be a very courageous mouthpiece for the King.
