Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, have you ever written down your STORY? Have you put pen to paper or typed out the details of HOW, WHEN, WHERE, WHAT motivated you and WHO shared with you the Gospel Message that caused you to Believe that JESUS was real and that His Love for you was unconditional?

We can and we should be confident enough to write down ALL the Blessings that have come from The LORD our God and the MIRACLES that He has bestowed on us!

AS IT IS WRITTEN IN   Revelation 12:10-12

Then I heard a loud Voice saying in Heaven,

Now Salvation, and Strength, and the Kingdom of our God, and the Power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God both day and night, has been cast down. And they overcame him by the Blood of the Lamb and by the Word of their Testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.

Therefore REJOICE, Oh Heavens, and you who dwell in them! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time (before Christ Returns to earth).

Dear ones, several years ago, our Pastor asked us to do an exercise of Faith and write down in one hundred words or less our “testimony” – what the LORD has done in our lives. The next week, we were to cut those words by HALF. Write down our testimony in fifty words or less. You are correct, the very next week we were to cut the number of words by HALF again.

In twenty-five words or less, how has JESUS intervened in my life!

Now I was asked to find a scripture reference that sums up my relationship with JESUS!

Please understand that you do NOT have to take 3 weeks to complete this exercise. Once you have committed this STORY, which is your STORY and applied what GOD says about you, then you can confidently and quickly share the Gospel TRUTH as a first hand witness to His Saving Grace, His Tender Mercies, and His profound Deliverance from ALL past failures, ALL my mistakes, ALL my regrets, ALL my self-pity, and ALL the false accusations from the enemy of our soul.

Remember that ALL of HISTORY is about HIS-STORY!

Before Christ was born in our flesh, we marked time as Before Christ – B.C.

Now we mark these days as The Year of our LORD – 2024 or if you are Jewish 5784

Here is an example of Jesus’ Story in 50 Words or less:

JESUS was born of a virgin, lived a sinless Life, died a criminal’s death, rose from a borrowed grave, and then ascended to Heaven to SEND us the Holy Spirit. JESUS is seated at the Right Hand of Authority of Father-God and JESUS will Return to earth to Rule & Reign for a thousand years.

Okay, Jesus Story in 25 Words or less:

JESUS is GOD in our flesh. Immanuel who WAS, who IS, and who will come again as our KING of kings and LORD of Lords!
.

You have no idea of the Ripple effect of what your Life will mean to a generation not yet born! Because you ARE a STEWARD of the Gospel Story – You have a STORY to Tell. It is not just the writers of the Bible that have this story to tell. You ARE an important part of the whole Body of Christ – WE ARE ONE BODY with many MEMBERS.

The Bible says that YOU ARE a LIVING Epistle – Not an Apostle who are those people who followed Jesus. Remember that an Epistle is not the wife of an Apostle (lol).

The Bible is saying that YOU ARE a STORY that GOD is telling of His Gospel POWER! This means that when People meet you, they have an opportunity to meet JESUS! This same Jesus who met you in the mess you were in, understands that your Life is a STORY and there IS really GOOD NEWS about how GOD has Redeemed you, called you by NAME and set you on this path in your Life with His Holy Spirit as your Helper!

The HOLY SPIRIT is going to help you TELL your Story! Luke 12:12

The Holy Spirit will help you zoom OUT and see that failure is always an event; IT is NEVER an identity. Your Life is NOT a movie, and this is definitely NOT the END! This is just an “episode” so that we can turn the page to a new chapter in our lives.
