It’s Testimony Time
March 29, 2016
Psalm 107:2 “Has the Lord redeemed you?
Then speak out. Tell others.”
In one of the small country churches I served years ago, in the middle of the worship service, they had what they called “Testimony Time.” Anyone who wanted to was invited to just stand up and to testify about what God had been doing in his life. One lady always had a testimony. She was being delivered from something every week. But it was always moving to hear others willing to stand up and tell how God had helped them or healed them or delivered them or strengthened them or guided them. I was always inspired by the witness of others. Psalm 107 is a series of four testimonies in verses 4-9 and 10-16 and 17-21 and 23-32. But what I love most about the psalm is verse 2, “Has the Lord redeemed you? Then speak out. Tell others.” Everybody has a testimony. Have you shared it with someone else? Do your children and grandchildren know your faith story? Have you shared a blessing of God in your life with someone? Who knows what God may do in the life of another person by your telling of what God has done for you. Let the redeemed of the Lord say so; it’s testimony time.
