John 4:39 (NIV)
And many of the Samaritans of that city believed in Him because of the word of the woman who testified, “He told me all that I ever did.”
Reflection:
This is a follow-up post to Make Known what God has Done Testify for the Lord. On that post, I encouraged everyone to testify in the comments field and so far 8 people had now made a difference and made known to the world wide web how God had been good to them. Praise the Lord! You can still leave your testimony, just click here.
Today, we'll learn how a testimony of a woman made a lot of people believed in Jesus Christ.
In the preceding verses (John 4:1-26), the woman had a personal encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ. In that encounter the woman realized and believed that Jesus is the promised Messiah they've all been waiting for. This encounter was then used by God to invite all other Samaritans to believe in Jesus Christ!
Just like this woman, each of us had a personal encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ. It can be an answered prayer or getting healed from a sickness or being rescued from danger or being victorious over addiction or a struggle. These encounters can vary from one person to another but I'm sure they're all amazing and great! Wouldn't you agree?
What made the people believed?
The woman testified! (John 4:29) Even how amazing your experiences are with God, if you don't share it, only you will be blessed by it. If you don't testify then no one else will hear it and no one else will believe. If we're wondering why our friends and family haven't believed in the Lord Jesus Christ yet, maybe we haven't testified about how God had been good to our lives.
Just say it! Just testify and God will do the rest!
