TOPIC:      THE JOY IN SOUL WINNING.  WEDNESDAY AUGUST 9
TEXT:         Psalm 126: 5-6
KEY VERSE:  How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth! Isaiah 52:7

And when a sinner or a backslider is brought to the salvation of Christ, what a joy to the passionate soul winner! That someone has been redeemed; angels clap their hands in Heaven. Angels rise up, praise the Lord and make a joyful noise: “Yes! A soul has been gotten for Jesus! A soul has been redeemed for eternal Hell! A soul bathed in the blood of Christ!”- That’s the joy of the saints, the joy of the passionate soul winner!

“Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.” Luke 15:10.

A particular man (an old man) of whom I had been wondering: “Does this man understand this Gospel we preach? Is he catching up with what we are saying when he comes to church?” The man came to me for counselling and testified concerning a message I preached that week. He said when the message was going on he broke into tears and cried like he had never cried before. Tears came into my eyes. He said “if it is riches, I’ve seen riches in my life; am I looking for riches in this old age? All I need now is the salvation of the Lord. I want to make Heaven.”I asked him: “What do you think take people to Hell?” “Sin and wickedness in their lives leads the people to Hell,” he replied. Then I asked him: “If someone does not want to go to Hell, what will he do?” He said “The person must repent of his sins and give his life to Jesus Christ.” What a joy to me that was! I said, “Lord, is that what You have done? Is that what You are doing?” That’s the joy of my life and I know it’s not only that man, there are many others.

Transformation is going on in many others. Salvation is going on. Deliverance is going on. Jesus Christ is getting glorified. Is He glorified in your life?  There’s joy when one sheep is brought back to the kingdom. There’s joy before the angels that are in heaven. If we desire to arise in evangelism, we must recover our passion for perishing souls around us. Soul winning could be costly and tedious. The persecutions are great, but the rewards are greater.  “They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.  He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.”

Thought for the day: Soul-winning is the only thing we do on earth and heaven celebrates.
Song for the day:    God and tell them that Jesus died for the sinful world
Bible reading for the day: Psalm 85-87; Romans 9

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...
