The Word of Our Testimony

John 4:41-42 - "Many more believed because of His word; and they were saying to the woman, 'It is no longer because of what you said that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves and know that this One is indeed the Savior of the world.'”

Those of us who have been delivered from desperate lives understand the power of a testimony of God's saving grace. However, testimonials only go so far. Many religions claim converts who have been equally depraved and now are set upon a new course of enlightenment.

The difference is when the Holy Spirit comes in and takes our testimonies, piercing the hearts of those chosen for eternal life. No longer do we need to persuade them, but God Himself has moved upon their hearts and made them born of His Spirit. May we continue to testify to Christ's goodness, but may we also pray that God will have His way with the lives who hear of His amazing grace!
