Welcome again to this space where I share a little about my reflection while I read the Bible. My name is Victor Martinez, Pastor of Crossroads en Español, and I am reading the book of Josué. Josué, the leader who has been chosen by God to replace Moses. And in chapter 2, we see a very interesting and very shocking story that I want to share with you today. It is the story of Rahab, the prostitute. In fact, we see in this moment how God has put in Josué's heart to go after the city of Jericho. And Josué sends two spies to this city, and these spies find refuge in the house of a prostitute. And here she, without knowing them, decides to protect them. And then look at what it says in the verse, starting in verse 9. It says, It is very interesting. Rahab did not know God. However, she had heard of things that God had done. And in this moment, she decides to protect them because she knows that maybe there is a consequence if she does not. God had put this in Rahab's heart. And this is the part that impacts me a lot. She could have chosen any person in the city. But she chooses a person who, within society, is rejected. Within society, she is marked as someone who has no value or who has much less value. God does not focus on our title, on our role as a leader. He focuses on the influence that you and I can make simply by our position. And that is good news. Because I confess to you that I have made too many mistakes, enough to disqualify me from the role I have as a leader. However, God extends His grace and forgiveness through you, Jesus. And that is good news. In fact, not only did God use Rahab to give a place to this group of spies and continue the mission of taking the city of Jericho, but eventually, one of his descendants would be King David. And later on, one of his descendants would be Jesus Christ himself. In fact, Rahab is celebrated in the book of Hebrews, chapter 11, in the Hall of Fame of the Faith, where it says that she was not only part of that moment of reaching the city of Jericho, but of reaching God's purposes. God has purposes for you and for me.

03:25

That is very encouraging. And those purposes are independent of our past. So, I have two exhortations for you today. Number one, if you feel disqualified, if you feel that God cannot use you, that is not true. God is looking at our posture and our heart, starting today, regardless of what happened yesterday. And we have the opportunity to repent, to accept His purposes for our lives, even if we do not know what they are. And simply to be faithful to Him, to be obedient to Him, to seek a little more of what He wants for us, and we follow that path. But if you are already a believer, I want to exhort you to something. Here we see the story of a person who did not know God's heart, yet had heard of Him and had decided to take positive action towards God. Today, many times when we share our faith, we share our faith from the perspective of what God has done. God humbly came to this earth, gave His life for us, and resurrected on the third day. That is good, and that is a truth. However, that truth alone, without understanding who God is, will not impact the lives of people. At least the fact of knowing Him, conceptually and intellectually, will not change the lives of people, until these people do something personal. So, if you are at this point where you feel that you must share your faith, I would think that God calls each one of us to do it. Let's think about not only sharing what God did for us, although it is important that we share that, but also that we explain the transformation that God is doing in our hearts. God transformed Rahab and made her an essential part of his plan by turning her into a Tatrawela of King David. It means that at that moment she opened the doors, but her transformation continued because she allowed God to enter her heart. Can we invite God to continue transforming our hearts? Certainly. So I invite you to invite Jesus to transform your heart and to share with others the process of transformation and you will see that God can use you for his purposes, which are good. May God bless you and I hope to see you soon.
