Equipped To Share Your Faith
When you give your life to Jesus, everything changes. You don’t need to be a pastor, go to Bible college, or have years of experience before you can tell others about Him. The truth is, once you’ve met Jesus, you are ready. That’s what 2 Corinthians 5:17-20 and John 4:6-10 show us so clearly. They remind us that once we know Christ, we are now His ambassadors. That means we speak for Him, live for Him, and love like Him.
Are You Equipped to Share Your Faith?
2 Corinthians 5:17 starts with something huge: “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.” The old you has gone. It doesn’t matter what you did before—God sees you as brand new. Your past no longer defines you. And that new life comes with a new job. Paul says in verse 20, “We are ambassadors for Christ.” That means you now represent Jesus to the people around you.
You don’t have to know everything. You don’t need all the answers. God doesn’t call perfect people—He calls willing people. If Jesus saved you, you already have the one story you need to begin sharing your faith. He didn’t save you to sit quietly. He saved you so others can meet Him too—through you!
Are You Equipped to Share Like She Was?
Let’s look at the woman at the well in John 4:6-10. She didn’t have a good reputation. In fact, she had five husbands and was living with a man who wasn’t her husband. She came to the well at the hottest time of day, maybe to avoid people who judged her. She was broken, tired, and full of shame.
But Jesus met her right there.
He didn’t ignore her sin. Instead, He called it out with truth, but He also offered her grace. He told her about living water—real life—eternal life. And something powerful happened. She believed Him. She dropped her water jar and ran back to town. This woman, who had been hiding from people, suddenly started telling everyone she met, “Come see a man who told me everything I ever did.”
She didn’t have a sermon, nor did she quote Scripture. She didn’t wait for a class. Ultimately, she just shared what Jesus had done in her life. And that’s what God wants from you. When Jesus meets you, He equips you to share your faith.
Are You Ready?
So, are you equipped to share your faith? If you know Jesus, you already have everything you need. God can use your story just like He used the woman at the well. She went from broken and ashamed to bold and unashamed in minutes. All because she met Jesus.
The same can happen with you.
God is looking for people who will say “yes” to Him. People who will speak up. People who know the joy of being made new and want others to know it too. You are His ambassador now. Let the world see what He’s done in you. Don’t wait. Don’t hide. You’re ready.
Because yes—you are equipped for this.
