The Samaritan Woman

Many Samaritans Believe
39Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in him because of the woman's testimony, "He told me everything I ever did." 40So when the Samaritans came to him, they urged him to stay with them, and he stayed two days. 41And because of his words many more became believers.

42They said to the woman, "We no longer believe just because of what you said; now we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man really is the Savior of the world."

In this story from John 4, the Samaritan woman tells those of her town that the Lord told her everything that ever she did.

There are many things to take from this small excerpt of the Scripture. As we go forward in the Lord, we see that by the Spirit, the Lord tells us everything that we ever did. He shows us where to repent, where to rejoice, where we fell, where we stand, etc.

As we let the Lord guide us in every area of our lives, others begin to take note, and come to Him as well. When we let the Lord uncover all areas of our lives that need to be uncovered (to have light shed on), others begin to follow after that great Light within us. And as you come to the Lord, He will tell you of everything you have ever done, and begin to speak to you about all you will do!

Going back to the previous post, to have life and spirit on our words is to speak what we hear Him speak, and to abide in Him. As we begin to trust Him more and more, and abide in Him, our words and actions will not fall to the ground, or be unfruitful, because it is in Him that our works and words are wrought.
