LET IT SHOW ON YOU

Many years ago, when I got a “Yes” from a lady, I went on a trip the same day. I boarded the bus to Eruwa. As I got down at the junction to the house and was strolling home, I heard a familiar voice behind me calling my name. I turned back, and it was my brother. I was shocked because he was meant to be in Ibadan.

He said to me, “I was in the same bus that brought you from Ibadan. I was sitting at the back”. I was surprised. I did not notice him at all. He then said to me, “You were grinning all the way from Ibadan to Eruwa. You were just smiling to yourself. What happened to you?”

He had no idea one fine babe just said “Yes” to his brother. I just grinned again.

What is the point? You cannot be in love with God the Father, enjoy the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and stay in communion with the Holy Spirit, and it would not show on you.

No! It would show on you without saying a word. When you give your life to Christ, you have what is called the “Joy of Salvation”. It is visible. You cannot be joyful and hide it. It shows on you.

It is not a hidden impact; it is a visible one! It shows in your words. It reflects in your choices. It impacts your fashion choices. It brings a revolution in the relationships you prioritise.

Salvation does not kill your passion; it redirects it! Your passion is now used for the right purposes. The same energy you used to organise wild parties is not used for kingdom purposes. You would no longer choose sin or self. You are now led by the Holy Spirit. You burn for the things of the Lord and no longer the things of the World.

Apostle Paul was still as passionate as he was when he persecuted the church, but it was now for the advancement of the kingdom. If you have met with God, it would show.

There is a song that we used to sing:

I’ve got the life of God in me.

I’ve got the life of God in me.

I have the Spirit of the Son of God

I have the life of God in me.

When the Samaritan Woman met Jesus, it showed! She could not keep it to herself

“The woman then left her waterpot, went her way into the city, and said to the men, “Come, see a Man who told me all things that I ever did. Could this be the Christ?” Then they said to the woman, “Now we believe, not because of what you said, for we ourselves have heard Him and we know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.”

John 4:28-29, 42 NKJV

When was the last time you won a soul? Let it show that you have met the Lord!
