At that time you will say,
“Our Lord, we are thankful,
and we worship only you.
We will tell the nations
how glorious you are
We will tell the nations
how glorious you are
and what you have done.
Because of your wonderful deeds
we will sing your praises
we will sing your praises
everywhere on earth.”
Isaiah 12:4-5
Eye witness testimony is certainly more powerful than repeating what you hear someone else say! This morning I read an eye witness description of a car accident. A friend of mine saw the wreck and ran to assist the driver and his wife out of the destroyed vehicle. The incident came alive in my mind as I read her descriptions. Thank God, no one was killed.
Can you give "eye witness testimony" to what you see God doing in the world around you, and especially in your own life?
Personal testimony about your relationship with Jesus is like describing a beautiful sunrise or sunset. When you hear about the beautiful fellowship of Jesus and one of His followers you can never paint an exact copy of that picture in your own life! All the same colors may be there, but the way they touch the horizon is always unique.
When you tell the story about how Jesus impacts your life and walks with you on the road to Heaven, others will be encouraged to depend on Him as well.
When you tell the world around you what Jesus has done for you, in you and through you, as well as what He has done and is doing in the world itself, the Power and Love of Jesus echos off the walls of Eternity!
Tell someone your story everyday! Especially, tell the parts about what you have seen Jesus do for you, in you and through you!
"Lord Jesus, may the sound of Your Power and Love Echo off the Walls of Eternity. Praise Your Holy Name now and forever! Amen."
