“One Year Bible” New Testament Passage (for Thurs., Aug. 30)
II Corinthians 4:1-12
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us. II Corinthians 4:7 (NKJV)
God has chosen a particular way in which He desires to move and operate in our world. It is amazing to me the manner in which He has elected to carry forward His purposes. Our wise God has chosen to use fragile, fallen human beings to serve as the conduits through which He will work.
He could have chosen a number of other ways to reach the world. He could have sent an angel. He could have written in the clouds. He could have built an imposing edifice. Yes, He can use ANYTHING. But His chosen vessel is a man or woman committed to Him and filled with His Word and His Spirit.
There is nothing more powerful on earth as a believer who carries the greatest treasure in the universe. Satan fears the Spirit-filled, Spirit-empowered child of God. You are GOD’S SECRET WEAPON. So don’t get caught up in the vessel – the earthen vessel. You are the carrier of the power of God. And THAT brings great glory to God.
