The Yes Man

In my profession, sometimes people ask for some thing that isn't necessarily what they need, or something that might not be beneficial. And sometimes I say "yes" to those things, even though I really should guide those people toward something more useful to them. 2 Corinthians 1:19-22 tells us a little about saying "yes" and what that means.

We see in that short passage that all of the promises we have in God, Jesus our Savior says "Yes" to. Walking in the footsteps of Christ, we know that we also can say "yes" to the promises of God. We also can see through the study of the Bible that Jesus was the ultimate "YES" to the promise of God (Isaiah 53:2-7). And this is a promise of God's that we can't afford not say "yes" to.

1 Corinthians 15:58 tells us that we shouldn't say "yes" to every idea or opinion that the world presents to us. However, we should be ready to shout with a with a resounding "YES!" when God calls us to do His work. We should be "Yes Men" for Jesus.
