The WORD Became Flesh (Week 16) John 6:1-15 “The People God Uses”
Have you ever had self-doubt? I mean, it’s so easy to do. You just take a look around and
see so many people who seem to have more talent, more intelligence, more education, and quite
honestly, more of EVERYTHING, and find yourself feeling inadequate. I’ve done that many times.
I’ve often heard that voice inside my head that says, “Why are you even trying to do this? Don’t
you realize how unqualified you are?” If you have ever felt like this, then I have some awesome
news for you… Jesus USES nobodies just like us! The Devil loves to make us feel insignificant,
and in our own strength, we are. But fortunately for us, we have not been called to live within our
own strength. Christ calls us to offer up all that we have to Him, and then, see the miraculous
things that He can do with it. A person who truly belongs to Jesus can do anything! This is
exactly what the Apostle Paul meant when he said, “I can do all things through Christ who
gives me strength” (Philippians 4:13). So the next time the Devil whispers in your ear that you
are a nobody, just remember that, thanks to the cross of Calvary, you are a child of the Almighty
God, and the sky is the limit for you. You CAN make a difference. In fact, you have been set
apart by the gospel of Christ to do just that.
