Your Testimony Matters!

September 24, 2011 by Traci



You may not realize it, but you have a testimony.  A testimony is all about a story.  His story.  


A story that is birthed from the pangs of life-labor, a deep toiling of intensity that brings about a beautiful end to it all.  A glorious gift.


It births HOPE.  Are you sharing that HOPE?


You may not think your story is worthy.  That no one really wants to hear it… whatever your story may be. 



But SOMEONE needs to hear it.  Today.  This very second. 


Will you give someone hope today?  Our story is nothing unless we can point others to Jesus.  


Tell them.  Tell the world how Jesus gave you victory.  Freedom.

  


What has He given you victory over?  What has He brought you from?  How has He changed YOU?

Don’t stay silent…

    Yes, our testimonies matter! I attended a brunch this morning with our women’s group from church. A lady I had seen but didn’t know stood up and shared her testimony. Little did I know all she’d been through in her life. I think it’s great when we can share what life was like before Christ and the changes that have occurred since that time. It honors God and blesses others.

    Blessings and love,
    Debbie

    Thank you for this beautiful reminder! I struggle with telling my story. Yet, it is NOT mine. It is His! He’s gracious to allow us to have a small role in it.

    One of my most favorite scriptures is, “They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony…”
    Our testimony is one of the most powerful weapons we have against the enemy of our souls. That which the enemy tried to use to defeat you becomes the very weapon with which you can use to defeat him. Thank you for the reminder today!!!

    Traci – it’s so true! We DO need to share….God allows those times and wants us to be able to use them to minister to others in their times of need. God is writing His-Story with our lives…and we must remember…it isn’t all about us. He gives our stories to us to share. It’s God-glorifying! As the saying goes, no one can relate to us unless they’ve walked in our shoes. Thanks for your encouragement today Sweet Lady. XO

Blushing with your delicate, rosy hue, a gentle b Blushing with your delicate, rosy hue, 
a gentle breeze blows through fresh, new blooms.
Your time is fleeting, yet faithful,
a promise of beauty each spring.

Gifting petals that fall to the earth,
You are waiting for me to visit you.
Basking beneath warm shadows,
Deeply breathing in nature’s favorite perfume. 

A legacy of faithful promise,
Graceful, elegant, familiar and kind.
As the sun streams through branches,
Your reflection twinkles and twirls, 
Leaving your dance card upon my heart.

You whisper, come linger a little longer,
No need to be in such a rush.
Through storm clouds, torrential rain, 
and those picture perfect days,
You continue your steady climb toward the heavens.

Your limbs grow stronger, your roots deeper still.
Your humble beauty speaks for itself. 
No need to shout, nor beg for attention.
You hold the secrets of many who return year after year,
Who sit beneath your branches,
and find healing to bloom as well.

Don’t trade God’s perfect timing for impatient substitutes. 

The counterfeit isn’t anything compared to the real deal. 

Surrender brings peace, joy, and rest. 

So trust fully to His perfect plan for your life. 

No more rushing ahead. 
No more backseat driving. 
No more comparing.
No more striving. 

Lay down the endless coveting of an illusion of perfection. 

He’s everything you’re longing for, 
striving after, and so much more. 

Open your hands and release your grip. 
Now you’re ready to receive His good 
and precious blessings.
In a time with so many voices, opinions and commen In a time with so many voices, opinions and commentaries, we can get overwhelmed by the noise. 

What should we believe?
What should we say?
Who's side are we on?

You can never go wrong with running to the feet of Jesus.  Get alone with God today, open His Word, and hear the words that matter above all else.
Walk in God's law Keep God's testimonies Seek Hi Walk in God's law 
Keep God's testimonies 
Seek Him with your whole heart 
Steadfastly keep His statues
Keep His commandments diligently 
Fix your eyes on His ways 
Praise Him with an upright heart 
Guard His Word 
Hide His Word in your heart 
Be Teachable 
Declare His ways with your mouth 
Meditate on His precepts 
Delight in God's statues
Ask to have your eyes open 
Ask for understanding and wisdom 
Find your strength in His Word 
Choose the way of faithfulness 
Set His ways before you 
Turn your eyes from worthless things 
Trust in His Word above all else 
Find comfort in His promises 
Make God's ways your heart's song 
Be friends with those who fear God
Value God's Word far more than riches 
Remember His faithfulness that endures through all generations 
His words are sweeter than honey 
His Word is a lamp to your feet 
His Word is a light to your path 
His testimonies are your heritage 
His testimonies are the joy of your heart 
He is your hiding place and shield 
Do what is just and right 
Hate every false way 
Ask the Lord to be gracious to you
Ask His face to shine on you 
Learn to be saddened by sin 
Daily put His promises to the test 
Peace is given to those who love His law
This world will offer you information, but true kn This world will offer you information, but true knowledge comes from God and His Word.  What are we filing our minds and hearts with? What we meditate on, will consume us and change us.  Let's makes sure we are being filled with truth.  Read Proverbs 2 today.  Look at all we gain from seeking after the knowledge of His Word :

Receive 
Treasure 
Listen 
Be Attentive 
Incline Your Heart 
Call out for insight 
Raise your voice for understanding 
Seek & Search 

-> then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find knowledge of God, righteousness and justice.

He is my shield 
He gives me abundant wisdom 
He guards my path and watches over me 
Wisdom will come in my heart 
Knowledge will be pleasant to my soul 
Discretion will watch over me 
Understanding will guard me 
Keeps me walking on the paths of righteousness
