Deity in the Details: Devotionals of Discovery and Discernment (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798385081660)

"By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they had been encircled for seven days. By faith, Rahab, the harlot, did not perish with those who were disobedient, because she had given a friendly welcome to the spies." Hebrews 11:30-31 The Right Stuff Have you ever felt like your stuff wasn't quite right, or people just looked at you with an upturned nose. There were many folks in the Bible that the world saw in one way, but God saw them and used them in a very different way. One of those individuals was Rahab, the harlot. The Bible's only real descriptor of Rahab is one that tells us about her lifestyle, and it's not so positive. Whether living it by choice or because it was what she had to do to survive, she was living a life of sin. Certainly not what one would characterize as having the "right stuff ". God chose to use Rahab, the harlot, in His perfect plan and transformed her into Rahab, the heiress. God used Rahab in the royal genealogy of Jesus Christ, the Messiah. She was the mother of Boaz, who married Ruth and became the great grandparents of King David. God used Rahab to bring the story of salvation to all people, and she became part of the Bible's "hall of faith" with the likes of Noah, Abraham, Jacob, Joseph, and Moses. So, if you are not feeling like you have the "right stuff " today, remember that God loves you and has a very special purpose and plan for your life. God is in the process of revealing your full story through the awesome work of the Holy Spirit in your life. Because of Jesus Christ's complete and perfect work, you too are counted heir to the Kingdom of God. God, we ask You to use us like You did Rahab. Transform us and give us a new purpose and a new life. Let us be part of Your perfect plan to bring salvation to the world through Your Son, Jesus Christ, in whose name I pray. Amen.
