I minister with what I have

Today’s Scripture: And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod’s steward, and Susanna, and many others, which ministered unto him of their substance. Luke 8:3 KJB

 

We all have something to help bring the Good News to others. This is our “ministry”.

 

We can serve our Lord and others by giving what we have. Luke 8:1-3 brings to light the many people and gifts that help bring the Good News to others.

 

In Luke 8:1 Jesus was travelling through cities and villages proclaiming and bringing the Good News of the Kingdom of God. The twelve disciples were with Him too yet how often we overlook verses two and three. Also with them were women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities that ministered to them out of their substance.

 

What substance do you and I have to minister with?  Do we have testimonies? Do we have other means of supporting the Good News of the Kingdom of God? Our ministry is to give what we have.

 

What do you have to give today?

 

Today’s Prayer: LORD, I give You what I have. Thank You for the healings and gifts You have given me. I return these gifts to You and others so that the Good News may be heard and found. Thank You LORD for the ministry You have given me and help me to be faithful to help bring Your Good News to others. Amen
