251 – Are you sharing your faith in unusual ways?

Have you ever been hesitant sharing your faith with someone who you thought probably wasn’t receptive or that you really didn’t even want to talk to?

What would you do if God told you to go directly to that person and tell them about Jesus and the difference he had made in your life?

Would you just automatically go at God’s command or would you try to explain to God why it might not be such a good idea?

Peter and Cornelius

This is sort of what happened to Peter when the Holy Spirit told him to go with three strangers to meet Cornelius the Roman Centurion.

This week's episode explores

• Sharing your faith in unexpected ways
• Having visions that don't make any sense until later
• God asking us to let go of some traditionalized practices
• Trusting God to prepare the way
• How to overcome resistance to sharing your faith with people who are different

Have you ever felt God calling you to share your faith in an unexpected way, with someone you would never have chosen to talk to? Do you ever feel you wouldn’t be able to do what Peter did? Or do you prayerfully yearn for such an opportunity? Maybe you don’t feel qualified or worthy to do something similar.

Never underestimate how God will use you and the good you will do when you have this desire in your heart. Then you’ll see yourself in this verse from Isaiah,

Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I. Send me!” Isaiah 6:8 NIV
