Insight by Dave Ingler The wonder of God "…In fear and amazement they asked one another, "Who is this? He commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him." (Luke 8:25) Wherever Jesus went, those who experi- enced His presence and power could only respond with awe and wonder as they wit- nessed the miracles of God in their midst. Those who were anxiously waiting for God's prophet now saw the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers cleansed, the deaf hear and the dead rise. What astonishment must have raced through their minds as they tried to piece together the prophecies that they had heard and the unexplainable events they were now witnessing. Could it be that this Jesus was indeed the Anointed One—the Christ, the Messiah? Were they really in the presence of the promised One who would be a Priest greater than Melchizedek, a Prophet great- er than Moses and a King greater than Da- vid? Had God's deliverer finally arrived? Were the words of the Prophet Isaiah ful- filled before their very eyes? "For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the gov- ernment will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the in- crease of his government and peace there will be no end…" (Isaiah 9:6-7) Who but the One sent from God could claim oneness with the Father, claim power to forgive sins and claim power to lay down His life and take it up again? Jesus could and did, for He was Immanuel, God with us, and His demonstrations of divine pow- er gave credibility to His claim of being the Son of God. But with those demonstrations and claims came the confrontation of be- lieving in Him rather than believing about Him, for Jesus said, "Blessed is the man who does not fall away on account of me." (Luke 7:23) Christians today should experience the same awe and wonder that leads to com- mitment as those who first saw Jesus, for this same Jesus who spoke of God's love still reaches out to seek and to save those who are lost. This same Jesus who looked at the crowds with love and compassion still responds to the needs of those who reach out to Him. This same Jesus who stopped the raging of the Galilean Sea can calm the storms that press upon those who believe in Him today. Surely He desires that His followers be amazed at what He has done, what He is doing and what He has promised to do. On- ly as we keep this wonder and awe can we keep from being offended in Him and offer Him the love and devotion that He deserves. Two Minutes by Pastor John Fredericksen Why Paul's ministry was so We have Christian friends who have a close relationship with an outstanding Bi- ble teacher. They tell the story of going on a cruise with this teacher. At the time, the husband knew Christ as Savior, but the wife was still unsaved and somewhat leery of let- ting go of the doctrines learned as a child in her church. The teacher disarmed this la- dy by seeking her out, sharing a meal with them, being very personable, and loving- ly sharing the Scriptures she needed. The end result was that this lady trusted Christ as her Savior, became a vibrant believer, and the couple became lifelong friends with this teacher who had been so used of the Lord in their lives. Have you ever wondered how the Apostle Paul had such an effective ministry with so many during his lifetime? He gives his tes- timony about this in the Scriptures. It began with a genuine burden for lost souls. Paul tells us "That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart. For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren…" (Rom. 9:2,3). Lost souls seem to be able to sense when one deeply cares for their spiritual welfare. Paul was ready to share the eternal life-giving gospel "in season, out of season" (2 Tim. 4:2). No matter where he was, from prison to the pal- ace, he was constantly giving out the mes- sage of salvation by grace alone. He sowed the seed of the gospel frequently enough that many were saved. Paul said, "I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more" (1 Cor. 9:19). His attitude was one of surrendering as a willing bond slave to the Savior; then, he served others, in a spiri- tual sense, willingly and humbly attending to their needs. Paul approached the lost in a personable way, finding common ground with the lost so he'd have greater credibility when presenting the gospel. He says: "…un- to the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews…To them that are without law, as without law…I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some…" (1 Cor. 9:20 -22). Paul was also tire- less, working "night and day" (Acts 20 :31; 1 Thes. 2:9), in his care and prayer for those he led to Christ. If you'd like to be more greatly used of the Lord, follow this pattern used by the Apos- tle Paul and the teacher who reached our friend.
