A List of Broken People That God Used

Despite their flaws and brokenness, God used a remarkable list of people to accomplish His purposes. If God can use these broken, flawed individuals, he can use you too believer.

A list of broken, flawed people in the Bible that God used despite their flawed brokenness. Noah had a drinking problem. Abraham was dishonest to old Sarah, doubted God and mistreated her servant, and was too old. Jacob was a liar. Leah was ugly. Joseph was an abused dreamer. Moses had a stuttering problem. Gideon was afraid. Samson was a long-haired womanizer.

Rahab was a prostitute. Jeremiah and Timothy were too young. David committed adultery and tried to cover it up with murder. Elijah was suicidal. Isaiah preached while naked. Jonah ran from God. Naomi was a widow. Job went bankrupt. John the Baptist ate bugs and questioned if Jesus was the Messiah. Peter denied Christ three times. The disciples fell asleep during the prayer meeting.

Thomas was a doubter. Martha was worried about everything. Mary Magdalene was a prostitute. The Samaritan woman was divorced many times. Zacchaeus was too small. Paul was a self-righteous murderer. Timothy had an ulcer, and Lazarus was dead. And God used him. And all these that I just mentioned for His glory. So, brother, sister, He can use you too.
