"The Word of God is like a lion. You don't have to defend a lion. All you have to do is let the lion loose and the lion will defend itself." - Charles Spurgeon
Good reminder for me today. I tend to want to "prove" scripture with someone who disagrees but God doesn't need me to do that. It is not up to me to do the job of the Holy Spirit. The Lord only asks us to share the gospel and and He will do the rest. His Word alone is more powerful than anything we can say or do.
"For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart." - Hebrews 4:12
That's an amazing quotation, isn't it? "Letting the lion loose" is all we have to do! Takes a huge burden off our shoulders...
ReplyDeletePowerful and wonderful quote from Spurgeon! Holy Spirit brings us joy through revelation when we read and study the word of God through Him.
