#2. WHO AM I? MY LIGHT IS SO SMALL (Part 2)

By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com (Watch YouTube: Wade Hughes)

YOU MAY NEVER KNOW HOW IMPORTANT WHAT YOU DO, OR WHAT YOU REFUSE TO DO COULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE. NOBODY SEES WHAT YOU ARE DOING? I NEVER RECEIVE MUCH APPRECIATION OR THANKS FOR WHAT I DO? WHO CARES?

Zechariah 4:10 For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth.

Zechariah 4:10 (NLT2) Do not despise these small beginnings, for the LORD rejoices to see the work begin, to see the plumb line in Zerubbabel’s hand.” (The seven lamps represent the eyes of the LORD that search all around the world.)

I HAVE HEARD SOME SAY THEY DID NOT WANT TO BE A SMALL LIGHT BULB IN A COLD REFRIGERATOR. I WANT TO BE A STAR. I WANT TO BE RICH. I WANT TO BE POWERFUL. I WANT TO BE A BOSS. SERVANT IS MENTIONED IN THE BIBLE MORE OFTEN THAN LEADER! MANY MIRACLES IN THE BIBLE WERE SET IN ACTION BY LITTLE PEOPLE. WHO? WHO IS IMPORTANT TO BIRTH MIRACLES?

WHO? WE DON’T KNOW WHO? WE DON’T KNOW HER NAME --- THERE WAS A NO NAMED SERVANT GIRL!

2 Kings 5:1 Now Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honourable, because by him the LORD had given deliverance unto Syria: he was also a mighty man in valour, but he was a leper. 2 And the Syrians had gone out by companies, and had brought away captive out of the land of Israel a little maid; and she waited on Naaman's wife. 3 And she said unto her mistress, Would God my lord were with the prophet that is in Samaria! for he would recover him of his leprosy. 4 And one went in, and told his lord, saying, Thus and thus said the maid that is of the land of Israel.

WHO? WHAT ARE YOU DOING THAT IS SO IMPORTANT? CHASING DONKEYS? LEAVE CHASING DONKEYS? HE COMES HOME THE FIRST KING OF ISRAEL?

1 Samuel 9:3 And the asses of Kish Saul's father were lost. And Kish said to Saul his son, Take now one of the servants with thee, and arise, go seek the asses.

WE CAN VISIT THE PREACHER WITHOUT A GIFT?

1 SAMUEL 9:7 Then said Saul to his servant, But, behold, if we go, what shall we bring the man? for the bread is spent in our vessels, and there is not a present to bring to the man of God: what have we? 8 And the servant answered Saul again, and said, Behold, I have here at hand the fourth part of a shekel of silver: that will I give to the man of God, to tell us our way.

GOD TELLS SAMUEL GET READY THE NEW KING IS COMING.

1 SAMUEL 9:15 Now the LORD had told Samuel in his ear a day before Saul came, saying, 16 To morrow about this time I will send thee a man out of the land of Benjamin, and thou shalt anoint him to be captain over my people Israel, that he may save my people out of the hand of the Philistines: for I have looked upon my people, because their cry is come unto me.

17 And when Samuel saw Saul, the LORD said unto him, Behold the man whom I spake to thee of! this same shall reign over my people.

WHO? WHO? WOW, THAT HURTS! QUIT BEATING THE DONKEY! THE LORD GOD CAN USE ANY THING HE WANTS… WHO? A DONKEY?

Numbers 22:23 And the donkey saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand: and the ass turned aside out of the way, and went into the field: and Balaam smote the ass, to turn her into the way. 24 But the angel of the LORD stood in a path of the vineyards, a wall being on this side, and a wall on that side. 25 And when the ass saw the angel of the LORD, she thrust herself unto the wall, and crushed Balaam's foot against the wall: and he smote her again. 26 And the angel of the LORD went further, and stood in a narrow place, where was no way to turn either to the right hand or to the left.

WHO? A DONKEY IS SMARTER THAN THE FALSE PREACHER.

Numbers 22: 30 And the donkey said unto Balaam, Am not I thine donkey, upon which thou hast ridden ever since I was thine unto this day? was I ever wont to do so unto thee? And he said, Nay. 31 Then the LORD opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand: and he bowed down his head, and fell flat on his face. 32 And the angel of the LORD said unto him, Wherefore hast thou smitten thine donkey these three times? behold, I went out to withstand thee, because thy way is perverse before me:
