Our Scripture reading today is 1 Thessalonians 1:7-8.
Verse 8, “For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith to God-ward is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing.”
A faith that is spread out is a faith that we need in our day. The way lost people are going to hear of Jesus Christ is if saved people are willing to share their faith with them. Is your faith worth sharing? This is saving faith that I’m referring to. Are you saved? If you are saved, you will be led by God’s Spirit to share your faith. The key is if you will yield to the Spirit or the flesh. The flesh gives in to the fear of man and the Spirit enables you to share your faith.
We need a revival of obedience to the Spirit in spreading out our faith all over the lower mainland.
Your friend,
