TOPIC: To be used by God
‘The Scriptures point to me!’
John 5:39 NLT
To be used by God, you must know two things:
1) Who God is. A little girl in Sunday school was asked by her teacher what she was drawing. She replied, ‘A picture of God.’ The teacher said, ‘But nobody has ever seen Him.’ Confidently she replied, ‘They will when I’m finished!’ Please understand this: the only God some people around you will ever see is the one they see in you each day. And to know God, you must spend time with Him. Not leftover time, but quality time, daily time, prioritised time!
2) Who you are. When God called Moses to deliver Israel from Egypt, he asked God two things:
a) ‘If I go to the people of Israel and tell them, “The God of your ancestors has sent me to you,” they will ask me, “What is his name?” Then what should I tell them?’ (Exodus 3:13 NLT). ‘God replied to Moses…“Say this to the people of Israel: I am has sent me to you”’ (v.14 NLT). In order to know who you are, you must first know who God is – then you will have credibility.
b) ‘What if they won’t believe me or listen to me?’ (Exodus 4:1 NLT). ‘Then the Lord asked him, “What is that in your hand?” “A shepherd’s staff,” Moses replied. “Throw it down on the ground,” the Lord told him. So Moses threw down the staff, and it turned into a snake!…“Perform this sign,” the Lord told him. “Then they will believe”’ (vv. 2-3, 5 NLT). Moses already had what he needed! And so do you.
Bottom line: to be used of God, you must know who He is and who you are.
