January 29

Every now and then I ask myself "what have you done for the kingdom lately?" When that question comes up, it's usually the Holy Spirit prompting me to move into action. There is probably someone that needs ministering to and He's readying me in advance to take action. As Christians, we can sometimes become sedentary in our ways and forget that there are many hurting souls waiting for some comforting words. Have no fear, the Holy Spirit is there to encourage you into action when it's the right time. Be in prayer and study the Word so you are always ready at any moment. Jesus is right there with you encouraging you! If your words are rejected, shake the dust off of your feet and move on. It may feel like they've rejected you, but they've really rejected Jesus. So, be prepared in and out of season to give a reason for your faith and share it with others. 

And if anyone will not receive you or listen to your words, shake off the dust from your feet when you leave that house or town. Matthew 10:14
