RHAPSODY OF REALITIES.
Let Him Express Himself Through You! · Thursday, May 2nd ·

Pastor Chris

And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon’s porch (Acts 5:12).

God can use you if you let Him; He can do anything through you if you yield yourself to Him. He has already blessed you and made you a blessing; now He seeks to bless the world through you. He needs you as much as you need Him. As you study the scriptures, you’ll become more and more acquainted with how much the Lord needs you, for only through you can He show forth His goodness, grace, wisdom, and excellence to the world. He longs to express Himself through His children.

The natural or unregenerate man can’t know who God is until they meet you, for He has chosen to express His will and nature to your world through you. The Apostle Paul said in 2 Corinthians 5:19, "To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation." God manifested Himself to the world through Jesus Christ. However, before His glorious ascension, in John 14:16, Jesus said He’d ask the Father to send us "another comforter," who would abide with us forever; and the Father did (Acts 2:4).

The Holy Spirit lives in you today, and so everywhere you are, you can manifest the life of Christ! Men don’t see the Holy Spirit, but they see you, for you’re His perfect icon; you’ve become a "Christ-inyou" man or woman. He laughs, smiles, blesses, and touches the world through you. He even prays and intercedes through you: "Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit Himself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered" (Romans 8:26). He expresses the God-life and His faith through us.

Through active participation in God’s number one job, which is soul winning, you’d experience more manifestations of His love and character in you. That’s what Christianity really is; you’re a dispenser or distributor of the blessings of God.

Confession

I’m God’s outstretched arm; His expression of help, healing, deliverance and salvation to the world. I’m a blessing to my generation and a conveyor of the glories, graces, and excellencies of divinity. Blessed be God!
