THE JOY IN SOUL WINNING

God bless you for taking your time to study.

TOPIC: THE JOY IN SOUL WINNING

MONDAY 
NOVEMBER 21st

TEXT: LUKE 15:3 – 10 
 Key verse: Psalm 126:5.  They that sow in tears shall reap in joy
When a sinner or a backslider is brought to the salvation of Christ, what a joy to the passionate soul winner! When someone has been redeemed; angels clap their hands, praise the Lord and make a joyful noise in heaven. “Yes! A soul has been won for Jesus! A soul has been bathed in the blood of Christ and redeemed from eternal hell!” That is the joy of the passionate soul winner!
Acts 8:5-8 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with a loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 8 And there was great joy in that city.
An old man of whom I had wondered: “Does this man understand this gospel we preach? Is he catching up with what we are saying when he comes to church?”  One day, the man came to me for counseling and testified concerning a message I preached that week. He said when the message was going on he cried as he had never cried before. I asked him, “What do you think takes people to hell?” He replied, “Sin and wickedness in their lives lead people to hell”. 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?” that is 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 getting glorified. Is H1e glorified in your life? There is joy when one sheep is brought back to the kingdom. There’s joy before the angels that are in heaven. Soul winning could be costly and tedious, the persecutions are great but the rewards are greater.

Thought for the day: Experience the Joy of a soul winner.

Song for the day:  I have Joy like river….

Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 24-26; James 3

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
