Olivia Golden is all about pretty things, places to go, and people to know. She has a worldly perspective with a flawless, filtered-looking life focusing only on getting another follower. In today’s culture, Olivia seems to be right on point with her objective to gain as many followers as she can, but as a Christ follower, the question we must ask ourselves is, “How are we influencing others while showing the love of Christ?” Ultimately leading, loving, and serving others as Christ commands us to do throughout scripture.

Watching today’s clip, we see Andrew Geller, Brand Manager in Divine Influencer, giving Olivia some friendly advice about what true influence is all about. The Lord created each and every one of us to be an influencer for Him. It says in Matthew 5:16, “Let your light so shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven.” The Holy Spirit, the light, lives within us, shining brightly through us so that we can do good for others by being the hands and feet of Jesus.

Jesus is the greatest influencer of all time! He did whatever the Father asked Him to do, showing the Father to all who encountered Jesus. In John 14:9, Jesus tells the disciples that if they have seen Him, they have seen the Father. Jesus’ love for the lost, healing the sick, and feeding the hungry shows us that He is the light that shines before men glorifying his Father in heaven. Through Him, all could see and encounter a mighty God who loves them, no matter what they have done.

Olivia’s journey teaches her that true influence comes from loving others, serving them, and impacting all those around her by showing the love of Christ. In order for her to do that, she must first encounter the One who has influenced the world by offering up His life for ours, forgiving our sins, and giving us eternal life. Once she begins to understand the love the Lord has for her and how He wants to use her for His kingdom, she can influence others for all the right reasons. How are you affecting others’ lives by influencing them for Christ?
