EPHESIANS 1:
15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, 16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ,
the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him:
18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of His calling,
...and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe,
according to the working of His mighty power,
| DAY 18—The Testimony of the REDEEMED |
|---|
I didn’t know what to say when I first started giving my testimony. I guess I just hadn’t learned the language I should use to tell of being saved. That had to come on gradually, for me. Then, I learned I could tell others who didn’t know the Lord that they could know Him too. I found so much joy in doing that that I soon had a joyful testimony. But, the real ability to give testimony came when I learned what the Bible was for. It was to be studied, meditated upon and brought over into living. Then, the testimonies really started coming. Today, I would rather tell other people about Him, and His faithfulness, than do anything else in all the world. Isn’t it like that with you?
Deuteronomy 15:15—And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt, and the LORD thy God redeemed thee: therefore I command thee this thing to day.
Psalms 107:1,2—O give thanks unto the LORD, for He is good: for His mercy endureth for ever. Let the REDEEMED of the LORD say so, whom He hath REDEEMED from the hand of the enemy.
FATHER, please loose my tongue so I can speak freely of the redemption that is mine in Christ Jesus. Help me confirm with my life what I speak with my tongue. Let my testimony, both in word and in deed, be anointed by Your Spirit. Let it reach into the hearts of these I hold before You in prayer. Let them seem Your grace and mercy in me.
