“You
may never know who’s going to be inspired by your testimony.”
KEY VERSE: Psalm 105:1-3
On the night that Peter was rescued by an angel, he went
to the Mary’s house, where the people had gathered to pray for him. Notice that
immediately after the angel left him, Peter thought of the people who had been
concerned about his situation. Most
likely, he knew they had been praying for him. And since he had been
miraculously rescued, He went to them because he wanted to share the good news
with them. Peter didn’t think of rushing home to celebrate alone. Instead, the
first thing on his mind was to share his testimony with those who stood by him.
After Peter described how God brought him out of prison, he then instructed them to share his testimony (Acts 12:25). Too often, we fail to share our testimony after we’ve been rescued from a crisis. When we are facing challenges, we run to people for help. But when God eventually answers our prayers, we forget to return to those who stood by us. What we fail to realize is that testimonies are important because they serve as proofs to God’s faithfulness. You may never know who’s going to be inspired by your testimony. Share that testimony!
Prayer/Confession: I will testify of the goodness of the Lord. Amen.
