I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened so that you may know what is the hope of his calling, what is the wealth of his glorious inheritance in the saints...
EPHESIANS 1:18 CSB
Declaring His Greatness
We declare what we are most excited about. We naturally share the things we find most appealing or beautiful. Likewise, we are motivated to share the gospel because our eyes have seen the beauty of God Himself. We have experienced His goodness, glory and mighty works, and we are compelled to share this with others, including our one. We share the glory we have borne witness to.
God is ultimate, and the scope of His glory expands throughout the whole earth. The Psalmist exhorts readers to share who God is and what He has done among the nations. Declare his glory among the nations, his wondrous works among all peoples. PSALM 96:3, CSB He is worthy to be praised throughout the whole earth, including among our family, friends, neighbors and coworkers. Join the Psalmist in this global declaration of God’s glorious character and His mighty deeds.
When our lives are changed by our relationship with Christ, we experience the hope of His calling and the wealth of his glorious inheritance in the saints. We want others to know what we have discovered.
When was the last time you declared to your one an amazing work God did for you? If you already know who your one is, this week, share an amazing work God has done in your life with your one.
Take a moment to pray...
Lord, give me insight to the circumstances, relationships, and other conditions of the individuals you have brought to mind / MY ONE, that you have revealed. I know that you are already at work to save MY ONE. I desire to be made aware of the ways that you can work through me to engage them that their eyes might be opened to their need of you and that their hearts may be turned toward you. I ask you to begin to open doors for me to be a witness of your mercy and grace. MYONE is ________________________.
