My Story for His Glory - The Purpose of Your Testimony (Podcast)
Luke 8:38 Now the man from whom the demons had departed begged Him that he might be with Him. But Jesus sent him away, saying, 39 “Return to your own house, and tell what great things God has done for you.” And he went his way and proclaimed throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.
This is a dramatic story. Many of us have heard that story many times. The most impactful part of the story is when Jesus told the man to go back home and tell what great things Jesus has done for him. It is easy to focus on the tragic part of stories, but it is more helpful to others to share what God has done to bring you out.
Your testimony is your story to God's glory. What God has done for you is the greatest evidence of his presence and power. There is nothing anyone can say to contradict an authentic experience with the Lord. As we say, “The proof of the pudding is in the eating.”
Your testimony is the story of God's glory and grace in your life!
• A testimony is the statement of your faith in God.
• A testimony is an explanation of what Jesus has done for you.
• A testimony represents your chosen lifestyle, not only what circumstances have forced upon you.
• A testimony encompasses your purpose and predicts your future actions.
• Your testimony of faith and expectation also completes the circle of your prayers, even before you see the answer.
