1 Corinthians 1:18 New King James Version
18 For the [a]message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA MY DEAR FRIENDS!!!
You know guys, I am continually astounded at how God uses the most unexpected, unlikely, and amazing ways He uses to accomplish His will and plan for us. I'm especially blown away over how God does use the “foolish” things of this world to shame the wise as I Corinthians 1:27 state so very well, but also at the most unlikely people that God uses to share the gospel message. It’s as James Banks states so very well, “The world expected divine wisdom to look like our own and to come with irresistible force. Instead, Jesus came humbly and gently to save us from our sins and so became for us “wisdom from God—that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption” (v. 30).” I think that's why the questions from this morning's devotional have me thanking God for the unexpected ways, means, and yes even people that He uses to bring about His plan. It's why I'd like to share these questions tonight with all of you, and I pray that they will encourage you to see this truth, and that you'll want to be used of God to bring about His plan too.

What unexpected things have you seen God do?

How will you make yourself available to Him today?

Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me from His Word, through this vlog I’d like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you will encourage you to see that as you follow God closely every day, that you could be used for what's pleasing to Him too. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn how God uses the “foolish things of this world” to bring about His will, way, and plan! 😊

So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I challenge you to seek God and ask Him to help you follow Him more closely today and every day so that you might be used of Him for what's pleasing to him. I especially challenge you to think about the fact, that God uses the most unlikely, unexpected, “foolish”, and yes insane ways and people to declare the gospel message. That what the world considers bigoted, insane, foolish, or even worse, God uses for his honor and glory, so that the good news of Jesus Christ can be shared with everyone. Remember the fact that God loves to use humble means in people to accomplish great things that we could never do in our own strength, and to be willing to be used of God to accomplish those great things.

UNTIL MONDAY:

HAVE A VERY SWEET, PEACEFUL, AND BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!
