” For your glory Lord, I will do anything”
Did that touch you the same way it did me?
Did you just say “yes, Lord”? ( guilty 🙋🏽) you are rethinking it now aren’t you?
Well then that’s great! Because that statement means so much! It’s a commitment to do whatever you can and ought to do to bring glory to God.
It’s a willingness to die and be raised with Christ. To die to yourself, to do what He says even when you don’t want to, even when it isn’t the coolest thing to do, when it’s just not “your thing”…
This is a point of conviction for me! Why? Because I will easily say it, because I will shout it out if I have to, say it to everyone I meet, but when it comes down to so much as reposting a message, I have to think twice about it. If the content is not on fire, if it wouldn’t blow my followers away, umm, no thank you 🚶🏽🚶🏽. “Let me go and look for a Holy Ghost word that will make everyone jump, if not bye bye sista”
We all want to get to that point where we have been blessed because we came but no one wants to go through the journey of dying to our selves, to our innate human nature, to our selfish desires, to our worldly needs, no one wants to have a personal retreat just to spend time with God (that was your idea 😏) or even drop our phones for a week to allow us concentrate in the presence of God! Of course not, the world will not survive if we were to go offline seeing as we are the rock on which the world stands. 💪🏾
It’s important that we know that as Christians we should be willing to do anything for the glory of God. As Christians we should seek to have a heart that only desires the things of God, we should pray for God to mend our broken hearts and for our lives to be transformed and conformed to the things of God and not to the things of this world.
It is not only about reposting or forwarding whatsapp messages. (especially the ones with the “forward it or you die” clauses). What is that thing that God has been asking you to do for so long, that you have been procrastinating? You know why you haven’t done it and it’s not because you don’t have the time to.
A lot of us are waiting for a large congregation to preach to before we open our mouths to share the gospel 🙇🏾, a lot of us are waiting for an angel to appear before we acknowledge that tug in our hearts to win souls for Christ. For others, it’s a process, there are different stages of growth and you may not be there yet. Just wait, trust in God and when you get there, charge in and break records.
The world is waiting for us.
It is our time to be the heroes of our faith.
Oh and you should listen to “For your glory Lord” by Tasha Cobbs
