Topic: THEY WERE ORDINARY PEOPLE!

The words below could have been an advert placed in your local newspaper by the Daily Manna Publishing Crew: WANTED: ORDINARY PEOPLE TO DO EXTRAORDINARY WORK! That’s exactly the way God works. His work is not done by great, but by ordinary people who are so committed. You may not have the muscles of a Mike Tyson or the height of the late Suleiman Ali Nashnush (the former tallest basketball player in the world – over 8 feet), but God’s work can be done through you. He used the hesitant uncoordinated Moses to lead Israel to freedom (Exodus 3: 13; 4:10). He used men that led sheep and goats as well as fishermen and farmers to accomplish His work. The Bible was written by God through initial failures like Peter, Matthew, Moses, David, etc. That’s why even in these 2025 days of social media, tele-evangelism and great super churches, it is still ordinary people like you and I using this devotional that God will use to do His work which is extra – ordinary! Writing to an unbelieving neighbour about Christ, being a worker in your local church, encouraging your pastor with a card or cash, helping an elderly person with the dishes or cooking, visiting the sick in the nearest hospital, etc, are ways your life can speak for God. Never forget that God chooses the weak things of this world to confound the mighty and the foolish things to confound the wise (vs. 27 of today’s scripture). Despite some unfulfilled expectations of your life/ministry, let Him use you this week and always remember the advert above! God uses ordinary people! If You Make God’s Business Your Business, He Will Make Your Business His Business!
