The twelve apostles had the followings advice for Christians when the number of disciples began to multiply. They said, “Seek out from among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.” [1]
I am grateful to God for people of good reputation who are filled with the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit gives people wisdom. I have had the privilege to serve alongside such people. In each case, I saw the Word of God spread, the number of disciples multiplied.
“Then the Word of God spread, and the number of the disciples multiplied greatly in Jerusalem, and a great many of the priests were obedient to the faith.” [2]
“Lord Jesus, thank You for creating people of good reputation by Your Spirit and bestowing on them the wisdom to serve You well. Thank You for spiritual leaders who are obedient to the faith. I am grateful for them and praise You for them.”
[1] Acts 6:3
[2] Acts 6:7
Outcomes I seek: To glorify Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior - To build people's faith in Christ

Grateful for God’s Servants
The Lord Jesus has graced me with revelations from the Book of Jeremiah that are helpful to better understanding the relevance of the Law, the Prophets, the Gospel, the Apostles, and the Book of Revelation. I am in the midst of preparing 54 video-recorded presentations, one for each chapter of Jeremiah, plus an intro and conclusion presentation. When the presentations are done, I plan to publish them on YouTube. I also welcome invitations to share these revelations in-person. In the meantime, I publish articles online, intercede for the peoples of the nations, and say to the Lord, “Here am I Lord, send me.”
