The priests and the
captain of the temple guard and the Sadducees came up to Peter and John while
they were speaking to the people. They were greatly disturbed because the
apostles were teaching the people and proclaiming in Jesus the resurrection of
the dead. They seized Peter and John, and because it was evening, they put them
in jail until the next day. But many who heard the message believed, and the
number of men grew to about five thousand. (Acts 4:1-4 NIV)
Sometimes when it comes to witnessing or ministering to someone in need you will have obstacles. Sometimes you will become fearful about moving out and doing the things that God has called all of us to "go therefore and make disciples". Sometimes you will have Sadducees in the corner talking about you and throwing shade. In those times, we must DO IT ANYWAY. Because just like the haters do their job, you need to do yours. They are just "sad - u - see?" so why let them stop you? Everyone is not going to understand it, but you must continue to tell the truth. Back in the Acts of the Holy Spirit, Peter and John were imprisoned for doing it but in 2015, we imprison ourselves with fear and doubt and insecurities. Tell of his love, tell of his mercy, tell of his grace. You have been a direct beneficiary to his UNCONDITIONAL LOVE POLICY. There are others on the policy, let them know about their benefits. I'm letting you know right now! The kingdom may not grow by 5000 but if it grows by ONE from you telling it...WOW - it's a good day.
That's what I heard...Be encouraged and wherever you go, come out of the witness protection program and tell just one person today how GREAT is our God!
