Say So!
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom He has redeemed from the hand of the enemy.
Psalm 107:2
Many people don’t like change, and some change is harmful. But as the American inventor Charles Kettering put it, “The world hates change, yet it’s the only thing that has brought progress.”
There’s one kind of change the world desperately needs—the individual change that occurs in the human personality when Jesus Christ touches us with grace. Part of the change occurs instantly—we are transferred from the kingdom of darkness to the kingdom of light, from Satan’s dominion to God’s family. It often makes a sudden difference, as it did when Saul of Tarsus met Jesus on the Damascus Road. Other changes occur over time as we mature in grace.
Christian growth is the process of the transformation of our mouths from cursing to witnessing, of our hearts from bitterness to patience, of our habits from self-destructive patterns to Christ-affirming routines. How has the Holy Spirit changed your life? The essence of our testimony is telling others how the Lord has changed us. Have you a testimony to share?
How you live your life daily is a testimony of what you believe about God.
Henry Blackaby
Psalm 107:1-2
1Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good;
His loving devotion endures forever.
2Let the redeemed of the LORD say so,
If you belong to the Lord, you will change, for He will change you into the image of Christ. We do battle with the desires of the flesh but the Holy Spirit that lives within us will be victorious in bringing us to glory in Christ Jesus! Let us pursue maturity in Christ and share the truth of salvation, forgiveness and eternal life that is found in Jesus alone! Let everything that has breath, praise the Lord!
