If this is your day for rest like us all you still need encouragement. Be encouraged today by this wonde4rful verse from 1 Corinthians 2 Verse 2:
1 Corinthians 2 Verse 2: "For I determined to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and Him Crucified".
Faithfulness rests in the Absolute Sovereignty of God, that He will accomplish His Will.
There will always be mixed reception for the preaching of God's Word. The world is not dying to hear the message of the Gospel, it is dying in it's sin. The world is predisposed to resist the Gospel, because the Gospel calls for the greatest change people can experience in their lives – from darkness to light.
Faithfulness in ministry is the proclamation of God's Word, prayerfully and in the demonstration of the Spirit's Power. Ministry is nothing unless it is done through the Power of The Holy Spirit. There is nothing of ourselves people could possibly want, but a demonstration of how our lives have been transformed from darkness to light.1 Corinthians 2 verse 4 and 5 {Paul speaking}
V4 "My speech and my proclamation were not with persuasive words of wisdom, but with a demonstration of the Spirit and power",
V5: "so that your faith might not be based on man's wisdom but on God's power."
Lets not rest on what we already know, let us all have the passion to know more and more about Our God Who loves us with an eternal love, and paid the price on The Cross so we can be continually be transformed by His Power and Love.
God Bless
