Whose Agenda?

I want to share two paragraphs from a bible study I have the privilege to be reading entitled "The Man God Uses" by Henry Blackaby. They were very eye-opening.

"When revival broke out in Wales in 1904-05, bars closed, jails were empty, and prostitution ceased. Cities were radically affected. When the people of God are touched by the power of God and are obedient to the Word of God, they can turn a world upside down! We're to be salt and light. If in the presence of light the city increases in darkness, what is to be said about the light. There is either something wrong with it or it is hidden.

Take a moment to evaluate your community, your neighborhood, or your marketplace. Is the darkness getting darker because churches and Christians are busy, or is the light getting brighter because churches and Christians are being obedient?"

Whose agenda are we on, ours or God's? Whose goals are we trying to reach, ours or God's?

Dare we even ask the questions?
