Truth Minute: Fishers of Men (They are not Biting)
If you have been around me for any length of time you know that I won’t chase you down to come to church, to love God more or to be dedicated to him and his service. It all happens in due time or not at all. Either folk will step up (conviction), stay away (Condemnation), or step towards their calling one day at a time (Conversion). I “knew” when I wasn’t doing right by God in my early years. I was indulging in sex (playing house/unmarried) drugs and hip hop…yet I was being covered by God’s Grace and mercy…( I liked Jesus but did not love Him enough to change my life) but as time passed and the life lessons became more painful..I truly GOT SAVED and accepted the call because things would not work out otherwise.
I wanted to be blessed beyond measure and that would only come through faith & obedience…BUT as painful as it was…I had to see it on my own…and the rest is history. So be encouraged…the folk you think aren’t coming will, the people who seem like they are not listening are…and the ones who make promises will break them as long as they are not in real covenant with God…so in the meantime…you like a fisherman have to be patient, Speak life, pray, share the love of God and truth even when its unpopular…Be a fisher of men and then sit on the waters of time and hold the line of peace… I promise you that if you wait God with draw them in!#fisherofmen #lovingkindness #preachthegospelandtheywillcome
