Relevance...from the Latin “relevare”...to lift up again and to bring relief; to the point, relating to the matters at hand, important, pertinent, applicable.
Relevance is not being like someone else or looking like someone else.
Relevance is not compromising who you are to be like the world or having to duplicate something that is already in existence.
Relevance is being who God has created you to be in Him and flowing as He has called you to...your personality, your gifts, your uniqueness...Being you, but not the old you...the new you in Jesus!
Jesus was the most relevant man that ever walked the planet and He wasn’t like anyone else.
True relevance meets the current needs of the day.
Believers…we are different and we are called to be different than anyone else.
That is what makes us special...and God has called us to be who we are.
We are called to be a blessing and a model of NEW things to come for the body of Christ.
We all have a tendency to do what we’ve seen done. There is nothing wrong with that unless God is telling you to do something else...even if that new thing isn’t what
I believe that God wants to release NEW things in His people…no longer a status quo, maintenance mode life…but a life of power and breakthrough - authored and finished in and through us by our Creator!
It’s an exciting new season...where the spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom and liberty.
I want to encourage you today to seek for and make room for a fresh moving of the spirit of God in your life.
Be who God has created you to be…that is the place where you are the most relevant in changing the world for Jesus.
Are you with me?
