What story does your life tell? When others read it, are they left with any doubt about what you believe or who your hero is? Are the others helped? Do they want what you have? Are they drawn to God?
There is one thing that every believer needs—encouragement from other believers. You need it too. You need to give it, and you need to receive it. But how, and when?
The greatest spiritual movement in history … is now. Yet sadly, for those of us in America, we have to get on an airplane to see it firsthand. As evidence? What if I told you that Iran, one of the most spiritually oppressed places on earth right now, is in the midst of a massive underground revival? It may be the greatest Jesus Movement of our day!
Saying yes to God is a daily and even moment-by-moment positioning of the heart. It means calling your thoughts back to truth when they stray toward fear, unbelief, or selfishness. It means reminding yourself that God is in control and that His way is always right and always best. And sometimes it means intentionally setting aside time to cease all activity—to quiet your heart so you can hear Him.
Spiritual transformation begins with a humble yes to God. Every act of reconciliation, every step into Christ-like love, every moment of passionate prayer, every bold believer seeking God’s kingdom first - all of this can chance the direction of a church, a community, and even an entire nation.
Tune into this challenging message by John Avant, president of Life Action, and prepare your heart to say yes to God.
