JESUS Chosen The Unworthy To Do His Work
MATTHEW 11:25
You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes.
JESUS Chose His DISCIPLES Who Are The FISHERMEN
Matthew 4:18-22 As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. “Come, follow me,” Jesus said, At once they left their nets and followed him.
Positive Thing In The Disciples:
The only positive nature is their OBEDIENCE. When Jesus said follow me, they immediately left their boats
& nets and followed Jesus.
During their early days of training, they are very dull.
Matthew 15:16 “Are you still so dull?” Jesus asked them.
Once they started the ministry, they are filled with power, miracles and wonders.
Acts 19:12 So that even handkerchiefs and aprons that had touched him were taken to the sick, and their illnesses were cured and the evil spirits left them.
Acts 4:13 When the chief priests and elders saw the courage of Peter and John and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men, they were astonished and they took note that these men had been with Jesus.
PERSONAL TESTIMONY
The Lord chose me even though I’m not talented or worthy.
When I attended the troop church for the first time, I was very dull. Not good at sharing the word, leading a team, leading worship, etc. When my troop church leader told me not to go to the traditional building church on the 1st day of the troop, I simply obeyed it and never gone to the traditional building church from that day.
The only positive thing in me is the obedience.
Then the Lord started to train me as I was sitting at his feet and listening to his words.
Now the Lord taught me how to lead and serve him. He also enabled me to build the worship department. Also used me to build Sapphire University, 24 hours online worship, etc. All glory to God for using this unworthy vessel to do mighty works for his kingdom.
PRAYER:
Thank you Lord for choosing this unworthy and unskilful servant and moulded into a useful tool for building your kingdom.
AMEN.
