Recall the
woman at the well?
Yes the
very woman whom Jesus told about her life.
Bible Reading: John 4: 4-42
The woman
whom Jesus offered the water of life.
She had a
record, may be one she was ashamed of.
May be her
name was on the lips of whisperers in the city.
But that
didn’t hold her back from going there and proclaiming the Name of Jesus.
After her
encounter with Jesus, everything within her yearned for others to have
the same thing she had.
She was Unselfish. Unlike most of us, we want to hide our light under the bed. We don’t
want others to see we belong to Christ now. But this woman willingly shared the Good
news.
Whether it
was perfectly done or not,
Whether they
came from ‘unworthy lips’ or not,
The woman’s
testimony of Christ turned the whole city around.
She was Unashamed. She didn’t care about her past or her reputation. She was least concerned
about what others would say or think of her.
She was the least important person. The people were top priority because they needed to meet Jesus the way she did.
She had met
someone greater than both her past and her reputation.
Jesus is Greater than Your Past and Your Reputation.
She was Unrestrained. Gal, when you have that encounter with Jesus, your tongue is loosened
for the gospel’s sake.
Your passion and fire for the gospel cannot be
contained.
The boldness
to speak rested upon her. That’s how it is, ask Apostle Peter or Apostle Paul.
She was Unselective. Everyone just had to hear! Imagine how she got the whole community out
their normal routine, away from their busyness and from their dwelling places…
This woman
went wild for the sake of Jesus. Everyone, not a few selected friends, not a
group of people, everyone.
She Shared Her Story. There is power in
saying how lost, how far and how deep we were away from Christ.
There is power in
telling how grace saved us
…come see a man who
knows my struggles
…come meet with the person who changed my life he would change
yours too if you believe
…come meet with the
person who touched my heart in a unique way and I don’t feel any judgment but
love and mercy.
She shared her
encounter with Christ.
When last did you speak to someone about Jesus?
Is your encounter with
Jesus healing, deliverance, salvation, peace, freedom from bondage and
addiction?
Your story may do it for a lost soul.
Share your testimony for God’s glory.
Know this you have come a long way may be with dusty feet, weary
hands, tired body or limping but unshakable and steadfast in faith. That
matters!
