Tell Us Another Story

I woke up one morning earlier this year to these words, "Tell us another story". It was a clear message to me from the Lord. I know God has planted many books within me, but I had been praying that the Lord would show me what He wanted me to write about next. Why, you may ask, am I putting the testimonies as stories? It is because Jesus used stories to illustrate the points He was trying to make. He had come to establish a new and better Covenant with the world and it was through story telling, also called parables, that He chose to demonstrate God's kingdom. Stories are easy to understand, especially when the people have them tailored to their own culture. Stories are also testimonies that edify others, give glory to God and empower us to overcome the devil. Notice in this next verse that it says Jesus was never without a story when He spoke. I pray that as you read of some of the stories of God in my life, you too will be inspired to get out of the boat and walk on the water for kingdom glory.
