Witnessing for Christ
We are witnesses of Christ to the world around us. Every action, every word spoken, yes even our thoughts are revealing our character. The world is watching they’re looking for the Messiah just as was the wise men when Christ was born. They’re looking for the Messiah in us. When they see our character they watch our every move to see if we are a true representative of Christ or just another hypocrite.
So how can we be a better reflection of God’s character? By spending intimate time with Him. So what is intimate time? Lets look at Isa 1:16 Be washed, make yourselves clean; put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes; let there be an end of sinning;
Isa 1:17 Take pleasure in well-doing; let your ways be upright, keep down the cruel, give a right decision for the child who has no father, see to the cause of the widow.
Isa 1:18 Come now, and let us have an argument together, says the Lord: how may your sins which are red like blood be white as snow? how may their dark purple seem like wool?
Isa 1:19 If you will give ear to my word and do it, the good things of the land will be yours;
We are to be not only true to Him but we are to be open to allowing him to work thru us. As the Apostle Paul says;
Tit 2:6 To the young men give orders to be wise and serious-minded:
Tit 2:7 In all things see that you are an example of good works; holy in your teaching, serious in behaviour,
Tit 2:8 Saying true and right words, against which no protest may be made, so that he who is not on our side may be put to shame, unable to say any evil of us.
