TOPIC: Evangelism Best Practices (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Daily Devotional 5 May 2019)

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Kings 19-20; Luke 23:1-25

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Mark 16:15-18

MEMORY VERSE: “And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!” – Romans 10:15

The MESSAGE:

Christ’s final instructions before He returned to heaven was the commission for all Christians to go into the world and spread His gospel; teaching men to fear and obey God, healing the sick, bringing men to salvation and preparing all men for His second coming and the kingdom of God. Every Christian knows that it is his duty to evangelise the world. But how successful are you in bringing people to Christ? It is crystal clear that not everybody can be professional evangelists, missionaries or pastors. It is however said that the life of a Christian does a lot more to win or lose people for Christ than anything else; and this applies also to evangelists, missionaries and pastors, because those who cannot read the Bible to learn about Christ should be able to read about Christ through the life of a Christian.

However, if your success rate in attracting non-believers to Christ is unimpressive, then It is time to review your life and see if you are actually putting people off.

Let us look at some of the things that put non-Christians off Christians:

  1. Hypocrisy: Does your life reflect what you teach about Christ? Are you a forgiving person? Does your heart reflect your external ‘holy’ look? Does your dressing show that you belong to Christ? Do you treat your spouse and children, your tenants, your employees with respect?
  2. Judgemental: Non-Christians detest the way Christians treat them with disdain and are so quick to judge. Christ died for them too! The only way you can attract people to God is through showing love and understanding.
  3. Charity: What is your attitude to the less privileged people around – at church, at home, in your place of work or business, on the streets? Christian charity expects that you share what God has given you with those who do not have and extend a helping hand to those who are less able.
  4. The Golden Rule: Do you do unto others how you would want them to do unto you? Christ says we must love our fellow men as ourselves.
  5. Temperamental: Many Christians are short tempered, moody and grumpy, all in an attempt at displaying their ‘holiness’. What does it cost to be respectful and friendly to all?

Beloved, the world is hurting; Jesus depends on you to humbly lead people to Him so that He can give them rest.

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
JESUS SAYS HE IS WITH YOU, EVEN TO THE END OF THE WORLD. REJOICE!

PROPHETIC WORD:
Let the power from on high fall on you to do exploits for your God.
