The People God Uses

God uses unknown and ordinary people who are consecrated to His mission. Why? Because He will receive the most glory.

1 Corinthians 1:27  But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

Remember young David and the giant?

1 Samuel 17:45 Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied.

Many battles are won when we come in the name of the Lord of hosts. When we lean on Jesus and His resources, we expect victory.  David was determined to honor the Lord despite the size and power of Goliath. His eyes were not on the problem, but on the Problem-solver!

Do you want to be the kind of person God uses for His purpose? I do. Regardless of what it costs in time, energy or reputation; dedicate your life to God and let Him use you.
