It Is Not About Me, But All About Him!

Over the weekend I was blessing to be able to attend a men’s conference, to see hundreds of men worshipping together was truly amazing.

One of the organisers was giving his testimony about how God delivered him out of the drugs scene 20 years ago and how now his passion is to see the men that he knows who are still in the drug scene, saved. He spoke with passion and conviction and it really demonstrated how the truth can set a person free.

The amazing thing was the fact that he was not just going to sit down in his salvation, but he wanted others to experience what he have experienced.

God is love and he has invested his love in us and as we grow in God we naturally want to tell others about the love of God, because love can only be love if it is shared.

It is the responsibility of every Christian to be a witness for Christ, it’s about him not about us.

Isa 43:10  Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.

Mat 24:14  And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

Jesus commissioning Paul: Act 26:16  But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee;

So as you can see we are ALL call to be witness for Jesus, its about him not about us.

Some people have the attitude, that their Christianity is private between them and God, so they never witness, go to church sometimes and never rock the boat when things happen that should cause them to stand up for Christian principals. They could not be further from the truth.

An isolated Christian is a weak and vulnerable Christian. We are called to fellowship with one another, so that corporately as a body of people we can lift up the name of Jesus.

Also there are things in place within the church specifically for a person’s growth the their faith:

Eph 4:11  And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;

Eph 4:12  For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

We are not to be ashamed of the gospel when we are in the company of nonbelievers, but we should be bold. How many of you are intimidating to even bless your food when you are in the company of non believers out of fear of what they would think?

God has not given you a spirit of fear, but of love and power and a sound mind. Don’t let the enemy lie to you.

In all things we need to represent Jesus as ambassadors, in our walk, in our speech, in our attitudes and in our motives. It is all about him and not about us.

John the Baptist said “I have to decrease so that he can increase”.

Parallel Principals In Reliv we have to understand that one of the main strengths behind our business is that the products working. With over 20 years of stories, we need to get as many stories in front of people as we can. It is the weight of evidence which causes people to make a decision.

The reason why we as distributors speak with so much passion is because of the results we personally have had, and because of those results we want to share Reliv with everyone.

However the only way we are able to do this effectively is by using the Reliv System. A person who decides not to use to Reliv system is isolated and vulnerable, and it does not matter how passionate they are to share these products with people, they WILL fail to build a Reliv business.

There have been many people who have attempted to build their Reliv businesses outside of the system, ALL have failed.

As believers,  Jesus gave us the formula to develop growth through the great commission and in a similar parallel, Reliv have given us the formula for growth through the Reliv System.

You can either choose to utilise it or not.

However remember the people that build strong businesses with Reliv recognise that what they are doing is bigger than them and bigger than just a business opportunity. We have a mandate passed on from Dr Theodre, “ To be ashamed to die until we have scored a victory for mankind”
