Use Me Lord

Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Don't you know that God can and will use you right where you are Today.

You don't need to do anything else for God to begin to use you now. You don't have to read another book, listen to another cassette tape, memorize another passage, plant another seed gift, or repeat another creed or confession. You don't even need to attend another church service before God can use you.

God uses willing vessels, not brimming or overflowing vessels. Throughout the Bible, in order to fulfill His plans for the earth, God used all kinds of people from all walks of life:

He used Matthew, a government employee who became an apostle

He used Gideon, a common laborer who became a valiant leader of men

He used Jacob, a deceiver and refugee whose' name became Israel and who became the father of the twelve tribes of Israel

He used Deborah, a housewife who became a judge

He used Moses, a stutterer who became a deliverer

He used Jeremiah, a child who fearlessly spoke the Word 0 Lord

He used Aaron, a servant who became God's spokesman

He used Nicodemus, a Pharisee who became a defender 0 faith-

He used David, a shepherd boy who became a king

He used Hosea, a marital failure who prophesied to save Israel

He used Joseph, a prisoner who became prime minister

He used Esther, an orphan who became a queen

He used Elijah, a homely man who became a mighty prophet

He used Joshua, an assistant who became a conqueror

He used James and John, fishermen who became close disciples of Christ and were known as the "sons of thunder -

He used Abraham, a nomad who became the father of I112: nations

He used John the Baptist, a vagabond who became the forerunner of Jesus

He used Mary, an unknown virgin who gave birth to the Son of God

He used Nehemiah, a cupbearer who built the wall of Jerusalem.

He used Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, Hebrew exiles, became great leaders in the Babylonian Empire

He used Hezekiah, an idolatrous father's son, who became a king renowned for doing right in the sight of the Lord -

He used Isaiah, a man of unclean lips who prophesied the birth of God's Messiah

He used Paul, a self-righteous persecutor who became the greatest missionary in history and the author of two thirds of the books of the New Testament.

Thank you so much brother John L Mason for help in inspiring me to write and for blessing me with your wonderful book, "Enemy Called Average". Thank you for reminding me that this same God who use our brothers and sisters in the past is still using willing vessels today, therefore, He can also use me. I will never forget you.
