God Can Use Anyone
February 4, 2024
“These names all come from ancient records. They were the potters…they all worked for the King.” 1 Chronicles 4:23
1 Chronicles 4 specifically lists the names of potters that worked for the king. They are mentioned on a list with powerful people; however, the potters worked in the background using clay to make vessels to serve the food and basins that would hold the candles that gave light to the king’s palace. Interestingly, the Bible takes time to notice and acknowledge these potters and even places them on the same list as these great leaders.
When you often think of people God used, you may think about heroes like Abraham, Isaac, Samson, or David. Their achievements can make you feel like you could never measure up to their level of greatness. But don’t forget about the many unseen heroes in the background, hidden in the shadows of scriptures. Remember the people who designed and built the temple, provided room and board for the prophets, and made meals for Jesus and His disciples. These lives were also used to spread the gospel to the world.
Anytime you see someone in the limelight doing great things for God, you will find people in the background, making it all possible. These are the heroes running the sound systems, greeting new visitors, helping people plug into discipleship groups, praying for people at the altar, and even cleaning the church’s bathrooms. Some of you are un-named, and nobody ever sees what you do. But God sees.
You may not be able to sing or preach, but you may have the gift of growing a business. That business could flourish, and your giving could make ministries possible that could not exist otherwise. You may be gifted with social media and can reach people in other countries that no one else could reach. Not every soul is won from the pulpit. It takes everyone using their gifts and giving what they can to reach people for God. Your life is so important.
Galatians 6:9 encourages us, “So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time, we will reap a harvest of blessings if we don’t give up.”
