WITNESSING FOR CHRIST

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. And you will be my witnesses, telling people about me everywhere-in Jerusalem, throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth

-Acts 1:8 (NLT)

POWERED BY THE SPIRIT

As soon as we believe in Christ

We are powered by the Spirit and made right

Believers have been called to witness

And testify to His miracles and greatness.

When the Spirit works inside

It will never set aside

All the good works God has done

And will prod us to declare his kingdom.

I accepted God back in my life after a decade of disobedience some twenty years ago.  I felt the Spirit powering me to always talk about his miracles in my life. I was an English and Visual Arts teacher to a Catholic school. I just couldn’t stop sharing what God has done in my life to my students while I was teaching them art and language. It was the spirit that drove me to say all these things to invite others to know Jesus.

In the book of Acts, we are summoned to be witnesses of Christ; to tell everyone about him everywhere unto the ends of the earth.

PRAYER

Lord, help me to act and say your truth so I can be an authentic witness to you.

REFLECTION

How can I become a living witness to Christ and invite others to his kingdom?
