Luke 11:33
33"No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead he puts it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light."I'm a little teapot short and stout- here is my handle here is my spout- when i get all steamed up you hear me shout- tip me over and pour me out"-
God has steamed u up, he has shown you the light- now its time to pour out- spread that light. The job as Christians is not only to build up Christians- but to bring more believers into the ministry. It is no wonder that Christianity is slowly declining as the world religion and Islam taking its place- because we as Christians view it as invading people's privacy or offending them-I'm not saying to stand on a street corner shouting Bible Verses (unless the spirit moves you to) or to hold a gun @ a persons head and force them to confess their sins... that might be a little over the top- but has been done sadly. What I AM saying is that God will give us the opportunity to spread that fire we have within us- he will open doors and crack window, push people in and out of ur life like a freight train- its our job to be on the lookout- to show the world how better life is- with Christ at the center of it.
When a tree is on fire- it doesn't stay climbing that one tree- but it spreads <---- -----> it moves beyond its point to engulf everything in its path. Don't hide the light within you- don't trap the fire- bc without oxygen, without being exposed, that fire will die out.
God Bless :]
