Divine Appointments
When you stop and think about the incredible sacrifice for your salvation–you just can’t keep this life-saving news to yourself! God is such an awesome God and the whole world needs to know! The best way to witness for Jesus is to live by example! Let every aspect of your life reflect God’s character. You may feel shy, awkward or unworthy to witness for Christ but God isn’t asking just the highly educated and sophisticated people to witness. He wants everyone to share His love! Pray for insight and Holy Boldness to be an incredible soul-winning tool for God! The Bible says in 1 Peter 3:15, “Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.” Pay especially close attention to the last line: “with gentleness and respect.” Too many well-intentioned people try to argue religion! They go about it all the wrong way using the Bible as a “hammer” to let people know what they are doing wrong. But that is not the right way to witness and more importantly, it is not God’s way! The best way to win souls for Jesus is to “love them” to the Lord! Friendship evangelism is much more effective than criticism and harsh judgment. Follow God’s commission in Mark 16:15 to “Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation.” Pray and ask God for “Divine Appointments,” . . . today! Text: Acts 1:8, Jeremiah 33:3, 1 Peter 3:15
