The People God Uses

Have you wondered if God could ever use you? Do you think that you’ve messed up one to many times? But God can & will use you. His Word says so…

…think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. He chose the lowly things of this world & despised things - & the things that are not – to nullify the things that are… - 1 Corinthians 1:26-28.

God isn’t going to look a person over for medals, diplomas, or awards…but scars. God isn’t interested in your ability inasmuch as your availability. Just look at some of the people Jesus picked. Take a look at some of His disciples, one denied Him (Matthew 26:69-75), another betrayed Him (Matthew 26:47-56.) He used Saul who persecuted Christians (Acts 9:15.) An outcast led her town to Him (John 4:39.) A man who ran away from God, He received a second chance (Jonah 3:1.) He used a prophet who was shy (Jeremiah 1:6.) The man after God’s on heart sinned, yet after he repented God still used him (2 Samuel 11.) The Bible is proof that it’s filled with imperfect people. God doesn’t use “perfect” people because no one could relate to them. God uses people just like me & you. Don’t ever let the devil trick you into thinking that God could never use you. He wants to use you. You are beautiful & you have a story to tell others. God can & wants to use you…if you’re willing…
