Matthew
5:13-16(NIV)
13 “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its
saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything,
except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot."
I have talked about salt a lot. I have an entire salt cook
book and it is HUGE.
There are so many kinds of salt—German chili salt. Murray
River salt. Smoked Welsh flaked salt. Sea salt. Kosher salt. Every salt has a
different purpose and I love it all. I have taught and blogged about how
important the different kinds of salt are—just like the body of Christ. Every
part has a purpose. Every purpose is important. Every person is important.
Have you ever been to a restaurant and salted your food and
it made no difference? Then you added more. Maybe you shook the salt into your
palm to see if it was coming out of the shaker. The salt was probably old. The
flavor either gone or nearly gone.
How about you?
People may talk about you. They may despise your
Christianity. They may mock you. They may make you miserable with some of their
words and or actions. BUT when they need something you are the one they will
run to…..they ask for prayer, they pour out their problem, they ask advice. When they need flavor in their life are you
salty? Or, are you like the salt shaker that you have to check because it has no flavor?
What does this have to do with intercession?
The intercessors have allowed themselves to become tired.
They are weary in well doing. Does that
describe you? God told us NOT to become weary because He knew we would have
that temptation.
We are called to be instant in season and out. We have to be
different than the world. Are you ready with the answers? Is the anointing consuming
your life? Are you ready to season the world? Are you in the word or the world?
Are you meditating and feasting on the word or the “delicacies” the world has
to offer?
Are you the fullness of flavor God called you to be?
