Qualified by God

Qualified by God

God worked through highly educated and articulate Paul.
God worked through soft-hearted and loving John.
God worked through impulsive regular guy and fisherman Peter.
God worked through a condemned thief hanging on a cross.
God worked through a Roman centurion.
God worked through Matthew, a hated tax collector.
God worked through a broken Samaritan woman.
God worked through Mary and Martha.
God worked through a woman caught in adultery.

No matter your background, education, race, sex, or handicaps, God has qualified you and works through you too.

Since you are qualified by the righteousness you’ve been given in Christ, you get to participate in what God is doing.

Knowing that you’re qualified and get to participate, let it happen. Depend on Him to be constantly delivering His fruit to your inner self. Allow it to bless others. Yield to the fleeting inner thoughts and quiet promptings of the Spirit as He leads you to respond with love, grace, and mercy.

2 Corinthians 3:4–6 “Such is the confidence we have through Christ before God. It is not that we are competent in ourselves to claim anything as coming from ourselves, but our adequacy is from God. He has made us competent to be ministers of a new covenant, not of the letter, but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.” (CSB)

You are fully qualified, and Father is working through you.
