You Can Be Used by God
“The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few” – Matthew 9:37
One of the easiest lies to believe is that God only uses certain types of people. Maybe it’s the ones with seminary degrees or the people who seem to have it all together. Maybe it’s the pastors, missionaries, or those who always know what to say. But the truth is, God wants to use you. Right where you are. In the life you’re living right now.
Jesus looked at the crowds and said the harvest was ready. There was no shortage of people who needed the truth. What was missing was people willing to step into the field. The problem isn’t a lack of opportunity. It’s a shortage of workers. God is not looking for perfect people. He’s looking for available ones. He’s not asking for your resume. He’s asking for your yes.
Acts 1:8 says that when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, you will be His witness. That wasn’t written to a select few. That was for every believer. Evangelism is not reserved for professionals. It’s not limited to sermons or stages. It shows up in conversations, in compassion, in boldness when it would be easier to stay silent. It shows up when you choose obedience in the small things.
You were made to bear fruit. John 15:8 says that God is glorified when you live a life that produces eternal results. That means there is power in your story. There is influence in your daily life. And there is purpose in every relationship and interaction. You don’t need to wait for a sign or a microphone. God has already placed you where you are for a reason.
If you’ve been waiting for a call or a moment, this is it. The fields are ready. The world is hurting. People need to hear about hope, and God has chosen to speak through you. Let go of the lie that you’re not qualified. If you belong to Him, you’ve already been called. Now it’s time to step into the harvest.
