Signs

"I have become a sign to many; You are my strong refuge. My mouth is filled with Your praise, declaring Your splendor all day long"-Psalm 71:7-8 (NIV).

The purpose of a sign is to inform individuals about safety, direction, warnings, and advertising. The wonder of your transformation is a sign to the world. You are a message to help others believe (Mark 16:17-18) and people demand a sign in order to believe (John 4:48). The devil is well aware of the need for signs and will send false messiahs and prophets to deceive (Matthew 24:24). Deuteronomy 13:1 warns us to beware of those who show signs which compromise our safety, send us in the wrong direction, and allow us to fall without warning. There are empty signs, with no message, which say "sign for rent." What message does your sign declare when people look at you and your life? Does your message reflect splendor or "sign for rent"?
