Like a Magnet


eDevotion
Encouragement for your daily walk with God

No one can be the same once the Spirit of the almighty God fills them. Furthermore, the presence of the Lord in a believer’s life should be obvious to others—that’s right, others should be able to see it!

This was true even in the Old Testament. The prophet Zechariah said the same thing. When people walked closely with God, others would recognize it and know they were the people of God—people from every language and every part of the world. Not only that, but people would seek them out to be with them and to see or find their God.

When God is evident in the life of a Christ follower, people will be drawn to you as well. Parents will want to be around you. They will want their children to be around you. Employers will want your integrity in the workplace. Your life and home will be like a magnet for people to enjoy the presence of God.

Dear Christ followers, let His presence be evident—manifested in your life. The more people see Him in you, the more they will be drawn to you, and the more will find Him.

Thus says the LORD of hosts: In those days ten men from every language of the nations shall grasp the sleeve of a Jewish man, saying, Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you. (Zechariah 8:23)
