Promise
Phil 1:6 “I pray that you may be active in sharing your faith, so that you will have full understanding of every good thing we have in Christ.”
Lesson Learnt
Paul writes to Philemon regarding accepting Onesimus as a brother. In the verse above Paul shares about the prayer he has about Philemon. This is the deep passion that Paul had about Philemon; this is the same desire Lord Jesus has about us.
Active Sharing
Actively sharing the faith, not just sharing when we get an opportunity but we long to share and we are active in sharing. When we share our faith to others, Paul says then we will understand about Jesus Christ more, we will understand more of the good things Lord has done and good things that the Lord is going to do.
Active Growth
If we do not share our faith, we will become saturated that we will not be able to receive anymore. Our faith is one of the talents Lord has given us; we need to be faithful to share, when we share, Lord gives more. If we want to grow in the Lord start sharing the little we have.
Exhortation
Psalm 65:5 “You answer us with awesome deeds..” David prayed and He confessed with confidence that the Lord will answer with awesome deeds. If we have a simple faith like this, then it is easy to share our faith to others. Remember Isa 28:16 “..the one who trusts will never be dismayed”
When we long to share, Lord opens ways to share. Share faith to others then you will receive more. Give to Grow.
