Becoming All ThingsShembull

Do you sense the deeply intentional commitment behind Paul’s words written to the church in Corinth?

It is only when Jesus Christ is at the very core of our lives that we can identify with what he is saying. He was willing to literally give Himself up – to introduce others to the Savior! He purposely paid the price to become “…all things to all men...” (1 Corinthians 9:22).

Does the adventure of serving Jesus Christ beckon you?

If your answer is “Yes,” then today you will want to discover Paul’s secret. His impassioned words reveal the Holy Spirit’s presence and leading. However inconvenient or undesirable - there must be absolutely no place where you and I are not willing to go in order to share the gospel. For that reason, pause to quietly meditate on that challenging reality.

Now, there is one more thing – thoughtfully consider his words, “…that by all possible means I might save some.” Being personally flexible in ministry makes all the difference in becoming spiritually effective in outreach!

Ask the Lord today: "Father, am I willing to be stretched, to be taken out of my comfort zone so that others around me may come to know you?"
