“And some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene, which, when they were come to Antioch, spake unto the Grecians, preaching the Lord Jesus. And the hand of the Lord was with them: and a great number believed, and turned unto the Lord” – Acts 11:20-21 (KJV)

The issue of soul-winning cannot be overemphasised. Thank God you are a man or woman of faith, but if all you use your faith to do is to receive a material blessing, then you are not maximizing your faith. It is time to witness your faith and use your faith to snatch people out of the hands of the devil and from hell.

Life is not all about what to eat, drink or put on. Rather it is about transforming lives and transforming nations. It is time to roll up your sleeves and get to work. It is time to live fruitfully. It is time to impact lives and transform nations. The bible tells us in Acts 11 that Phillip and the entire Apostles witnessed their faith even in the very face of persecution. Acts 11:19–20 says that the disciples were scattered all over the place preaching the word and planting churches all over different cities. And some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene which when they have come to Antioch speak unto the Grecian preaching the Lord Jesus. What were these men preaching? They preached the Lord Jesus.

Beloved, everything in the scriptures from Genesis to Revelation is all about Jesus. It is the unveiling of Jesus. When you preach and Jesus is not unveiled, faith will never come. I encourage you to preach Jesus everywhere you go. You don’t need a pulpit to preach. The world out there is your pulpit. Find the time to tell someone about Jesus. And even when you reference the Old Testament, let Jesus come out of it so that people will be grounded and established in the Lord.

Let me remind you that you are not here today by accident. You are here for a specific assignment. God has positioned you as the light of the world. So, let your light shine for all to see. Make Christ known everywhere.
