‘As servants of God, we must learn to make room
for Him-to give God “elbow room.” We plan and figure and predict that this or that
will happen, but we forget to make room for God to come in as He chooses. Would
we be surprised if God came into our meeting or into our preaching in a way we
had never expected Him to come? Do not look for God to come in a particular
way, but do look for Him. The way to make room for Him is to expect Him to
come, but not in a certain way. No matter how well we may know God, the great
lesson to learn is that He may break in at any minute.’ CHAMBERS
In the Experiencing God study, Henry Blackaby says
that God is always at work around us.
And He invites us to join Him in that work. This life is not just for preachers or
missionaries, but for everyday people. Christians who are stay at home moms or truck
drivers or pizza delivery people, or someone who is out of work. God is at work and wants to use His sons and
daughters for His glory and the advancement of His Kingdom .. the spreading of
the Gospel.
As much as it may seem to you that being part of
the kingdom, beyond your personal spiritual life, is out of reach … it is as close as a “Yes
Lord to Your will and to Your way.” When
God shows up, it will be in an opportunity .. to speak a word, to show kindness
to someone who does not deserve it … to be like Jesus … So what do you say?
“Yes Lord yes to Your will and to your way. Yes Lord yes, I will trust You and obey. When the Spirit speaks to me, with my whole
heart I’ll agree, and I will answer, Yes Lord, Yes!”
