Certain Women

I got this devotional from a great woman of God that provoked my thinking…

Sandy and I know so many talented women that impact the gospel with their lives and their prayers. I am in Sri Lanka and I miss Sandy hello… and my mama.

So we want to encourage you in your walk with Jesus that your life is affecting the kingdom of God. From business ladies to the greatest vocation in the world, being a mother… the Lord Jesus has his hand upon your life to impact this world for him and your husband… LOL!

So keep seeking, keep speaking that word in due season, keep passionately pursing Jesus in prayer, keep getting up in the middle of the night to open your door to strangers, keep going… keep trusting him to fulfill your every need and desire.

We love you…

They Walked With Him: Certain Women

 
 

The twelve were with Him, and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities . . . who provided for Him from their substance.
Luke 8:1-3

 
 

Have you ever wondered how Jesus financed His ministry? When He left the carpenter's trade, He gave up His regular income, yet still needed three meals a day, an occasional change of clothes, money for taxes (which He once paid with a coin from a fish's mouth), and provisions for the twelve who left their livelihoods to follow Him.

It was a group of women who helped underwrite His earthly work. Having been touched and transformed by His power, they did what they could, giving from their means; and they provided the money He needed for His three-year mission.

If we'd been alive in those days, would we have given anything to Christ for His work? There's an easy way to answer that, of course. He is still alive and doing His work on earth. We can discern what we would have done then by seeing what we are doing now.

When He touches us, He touches our pocketbooks, too, inspiring us to finance His work as He has prospered us.
