This one really smacked me around this morning!
Proverbs 14:25
25 A true witness delivers souls,
But a deceitful witness speaks lies
Don't just let this verse get by you this morning without grabbing onto what it is really saying! If we are true witnesses for Christ we will be delivering souls. WOW! That means we will be working hard for the Lord by living our lives the way Jesus instructs us to so that others will see Christ in us and want what we got. Also it means we will be telling others about Jesus and what He did for each of us on the cross! According to what I read here if we are not winning souls to Christ then we are not a true witness. Now stop and chew on that for a while this morning!
On the other hand there are many who claim to be followers but they are speaking lies. They don't live for Jesus they are just playing games. Churches are full of folks like this who think because they come on Sunday and fill a space in the pew that they are followers of Christ. My friends it takes more than that, it has to be you life in a relationship with Jesus, in active service to the King! These folks never share Jesus with others. Why? Because Jesus is not the most important person in their life. The witness in these folks life is that the world is more important, so in turn their witness speaks lies!
So how is your witness this morning? Is it delivering souls or speaking lies? Never too late to turn and follow Jesus! If you are delivering souls...praise the Lord and keep up the good work!
