Jesus Was Here

I was speaking with a friend this week. He went for a conference where the Governor of Lagos State was suppose to be present as a key note speaker. However, the governor wasn't available and sent a representative.

My friend told me that each time anyone spoke to the convener of the programme about the Governor's absence, the convener would always insist that the governor was there.

No matter what it might seem like, the Governor sent a delegate. Hence, the Governor was there. That was the reality of that man.

Also, every form of honour, recognition and comments received by the delegate goes back to the Governor.

This is the same principle that you as a believer in Jesus must be conscious about.

You can help someone else experience the Grace of God. You can help someone close to you see Jesus.

In fact, the scripture makes us to understand that "as Christ is, so are we in this world." You can be a blessing to someone and they can say "Jesus Was Here."

They might mention your name, give thanks to God because they met you. But in the spiritual they are saying "Jesus Was Here."

Hence, all the glory goes back to God. You are just a representative. You must understand that the essence and core of every work of Grace you experience or help someone experience is to glorify God.

The scripture says "Not by works, lest any man should boast." Not by power, not by might but by my spirit saith the Lord of Host.

In the story of grace, God is the beginning and the end. He is the lead actor, director and producer. It's all about Jesus!

Prayer:
Father, always use me for your gracious works and take the glory in Jesus name. Amen.
