Be a Godly Influence - Monoah's Wife
Lord, help me develop a deeper desire for you as I encounter your Word.
Observe You don’t have to speak to large audiences, write a book, own a thriving business, or have a big social media following to have influence. More often than not, influence happens around our everyday, ordinary events of life––around the dinner table, in a living room, at a coffee shop, or during a small group discussion. In fact, whether we realize it or not, we influence family members, neighbors, coworkers, and friends all the time by our words, actions, and choices.
God doesn’t give us our insights, gifts, and talents just for our own personal gain. He is much more concerned with how we use these qualities to serve him and bless others (Colossians 3:23; 1 Peter 4:10).
In the book of Judges, chapter 13, Samson’s father, Monoah, was terrified that God was going to kill him and his wife. But Monoah’s courageous wife gently encouraged her husband with her knowledge of God and unwavering faith.
Courageously influence others in godly ways by eliminating the following obstacles.
1. Don’t allow your past to discourage you from being a positive influence.
2. Don’t allow your weaknesses to distract you from being a faithful encourager.
3. Don’t allow the opinions of others to keep you from being an inspiration.
4. Don’t allow fear to stop you from sharing your faith and leading others to Christ.
Interpret When other people misunderstand God, his Word, and his ways, God wants us to courageously express our faith and gently lead them to the truth.
Apply Who do you influence? Evaluate the ways in which you influence others and determine if it’s in alignment with God and his Word.
Father, you give me everything I need to faithfully lead others. Prepare my heart and mind to be a godly influence and give me unshakable courage to lead others to you.
