Simply Give the Message God Gives You

Jonah 3

The Holy Spirit is at work all around us – moving in our lives and leading people into relationship with the Father God.

 

As his disciples, Jesus invites us to follow his example to “do only what he sees his Father doing” and to partner with the same Holy Spirit who empowered him.

 

The gift of prophecy is a Holy Spirit-given ability to speak God’s truth, His heart, and His message directly to people for a particular moment.

 

As Jesus followers, we must never abandon our prophetic voice.  But if we do not speak from compassionate hearts, our words will ring hollow.

 

We can trust God to do what He wills with our acts of simple obedience.  The results are His work and are completely up to Him.

 

The Holy Spirit is the only one can turn hearts and lead people to repentance and into a personal experience of God’s compassion.

 

True repentance begins with humility of heart and is then demonstrated through changed behaviors.

 

God’s invitation to receive His mercy and grace is extended to every individual and to all people groups everywhere.

 

We are not ministers of judgment.  We are ministers of the Good News of Jesus Christ by which we ourselves are loved and saved.

 

The book of Jonah reminds us that God loves all people and desires to show compassion and mercy to everyone in response to repentance.

 

God invites us to know and to daily live in His compassion for us so that we can readily share it with our neighbors and our enemies alike.
