Stand in the GAP

I just wanted to post quick, I was thinking of something Mrs. Bullock told us. In Psalms 142:4 it says, " I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no man that would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul."
We have all heard messages where the preachers have begged for someone to stand in the gap, step up and be the one that God can use. And that is the case; yet, we still need people to stand in the gap. Mrs. Bullock showed us something in a verse that is so familiar to most Christians. Romans 12:2 says, "And be no conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." She told us that one of her teachers had shown them that God wants people to be doing these things. Be Good - following what is right. Be Acceptable - Doing that which is pleasing in the Lord's sight. Be Perfect - Mature in your faith, Complete in Christ. Then you will be one that God can use to stand in the G.A.P.
