MEMORISE: ” And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. Matthew 4:19
BIBLE TEXT: Matthew 28:19-20
19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
MESSAGE
In the book of Acts, the Christians in the early Church went everywhere preaching the word as instructed by the Lord Jesus Christ. Sadly, many believers today are complacent about this. The truth is, if you truly love the Lord you will fish for souls every day. Here are some tips to evangelise effectively:
1. Ask God to give you a burden for souls. Ask Him to tell you a handful of people that you can earnestly pray for to be saved. Afterwards, make list with those names: pray over them every day and pray for an opportunity to win them to Christ.
2. Live a consistent Christian life. Jesus said that you are the light of the world, so let your light shine for people to see and glorify God (Matthew 5:14-16). In today’s world, Christianity is perceived as a way of life. Therefore, you must live obedience, love when others hate and forgive when others harbour grudges. You must have a growing relationship with God that will make people recognize and respect your character, making them want to serve God as well
ACTION POINT:
Pray for one soul today
HYMN 22 – Must I Go and Empty Handed?
1. Must I go and empty handed?
Thus my dear Redeemer meet?
Not one day of service give Him
Lay no trophy at His feet?
Chorus
Must I go and empty handed?
Must I meet my Saviour so?
Not one soul with which to greet Him?
Must I empty handed go
2. Not at death shrink or falter
For my Saviour saves me now
But to meet Him empty handed
Thought of that now clouds my brow
3. Oh, the years of sinning wasted
Could I but recall them now
I would give them to my Saviour
To His will l’d gladly bow
4. O ye saints, arouse, be earnest
Up and work while yet ’tis day
Ere the night of death o’er take thee
Strive for souls while still you may.
Strive for souls while still you may
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Genesis 8:1-10:32; Matthew 4:12-25
