Let this be made known to all the earth

And in that day you will say, Give thanks to the Lord, call upon His name and by means of His name [in solemn entreaty]; declare and make known His deeds among the peoples of the earth, proclaim that His name is exalted! Sing praises to the Lord, for He has done excellent things [gloriously]; let this be made known to all the earth. Isaiah 12:4-5

A question for all Christians is how are we letting 'this be made known to all the earth'? 

In today's world the internet certainly provides a way for us to communicate widely about the deeds God is doing here and now! At least to the peoples who have access to the internet and are searching for more about God. 

We all have a sphere of influence. However big or small your sphere of influence, next time you post a facebook entry, comment on a blog, or use some other type of social media, why not be bold and declare what God has done for you. And then trust that God will use that declaration to encourage and help someone else.

For my part I am learning to take every opportunity that God gives me to declare what He is doing in my life. With every new opportunity to communicate, my boldness grows. From various feedback I receive I know God is using the testimony of His faithfulness and goodness in my life to encourage and inspire other people. What an honour and a privilege to be used in that way. Thank you Jesus that you truly do work all things together for good!

A challenge, in this next week, why not use some aspect of social media to declare what God has done and pray that it will encourage whoever reads it.
