“Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.”Mark 5:19
“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death” Revelation 12:11.
There is power in our testimony! The more you share it, the more the Lord can use your story to help others.
But, sometimes it is hard to express your testimony into words. Here are 5 steps to discovering your testimony.
- Thank the Lord for all He is done in your life so far. Creating a thankful heart is the first step to seeing all the goodness God has lavished on you.
- Reflect on all the incidents the Lord has come through for you. Dwell on His perfect timing, and how He always knows what is best for you.
- If you are having a difficult time thinking about the good things the Lord has done for you, ask Him to open your eyes to see His faithfulness in your life. The examples are there, but sometimes our attitudes need adjustment before we can see God’s work in our lives!
- Now, look at all the examples of God’s goodness in your life. See how He has changed the bad situations into good things of Him. Try to locate a theme amongst all of the examples. (His faithfulness, His unending blessings, His peace, His comfort, etc)
- Once you have found your story, begin sharing it to others! The more you share it, the more the Lord will allow you to see how He has used your life for the glory of God!
How has discovering your testimony been beneficial in your life? If you have not taken the time to discover it, what do you think is keeping you from finding it?
