But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty – 1 Corinthians 1:27
But once you envision God’s hand / You’ll then understand / You’re equipped for His command / For what isn’t recognizable / Or considered acceptable / God sees as being valuable / Then the doubts you’ve been told / Will fade as you watch faith unfold / Through gifts miraculously bestowed
Moses, Gideon, and Jeremiah didn’t change how they saw themselves. What shifted was their belief in God to equip them to fulfill their assignments. Consequently, they became the perfect examples of 1 Corinthians 1:27—of how God will use what the world may discard or disqualify to perform extraordinary tasks.
Remembering how those men were equipped for service, we can eagerly receive our baton this new month, knowing that an abundance of faith will always overshadow whatever we think we lack.
