When my wife and I would travel on mission trips; she informed me that it was my responsibility to make sure that all of our electronic devices were fully charged and ready for our mission trip. So, one time I remember looking around for all the chargers and cords, etc. and then it hit me. As I’m preparing to make sure our electronic devices are ready for the trip am I “fully charged” and ready for the mission trip? This is way more important than having our electronic devices ready! And as I’m thinking about this, I’m thinking it will be nice to share pictures of our mission trip via our electronic devices with family and friends; however, it will be MUCH BETTER to share how I impacted someone’s life with the gospel of Jesus Christ and this will only happen if I’m “fully charged” by the Holy Spirit. So today, here’s the question — are YOU “fully charged” by the Holy Spirit? Only when you’re “fully charged” will you be used by Jesus the way He intended for you to be used for His service. Because while Jesus was doing His earthly ministry, He said this — “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Acts 1:8 (NIV) Thanks for reading and until next time, Consider This!
