It’s Not All About You

Acts 13:46-47


46 Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.
47 For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.

I have watched preachers be in the middle of a sermon and someone look at their watch and roll thier eyes because the message is not for them. However, as soon as the service is over another person will walk up and tell the preacher how they needed that. To many people think that every message preached should be for them. This is not the case. A preacher may have a message for the entire congregation or it may be for one person. If you do not feel the message is for you, do not get upset and roll your eyes. Instead start praying that whoever that message is for touches their heart.
