1 Corinthians 1:30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 31 That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
Do you know the greatest ability if you want to be used by God? It is availability. So many times my prayer is simply this, “Lord Jesus, inhabit my humanity and do what you want to do in me. I am available. I yield myself to you, God, to do, to be, to say, to think what you want me to do, be, say and think.” And folks, no matter whether you are known or unknown, mighty or weak, base or noble, if you’re available, you can be used mightily of God. Don’t insult the grace of God by saying God can’t use you. God has been looking for somebody just like you. He made you for His purposes and He will be faithful to accomplish those purposes in your life if you will make yourself available to Him.
How might you make yourself more available for God to use you this week? What are some ways we make ourselves unavailable to God—whether intentionally or not?
Look at your calendar this week and consider practical ways to make yourself available to God. How might your schedule be an obstacle to your spiritual availability?
