Persuade Them To Righteous And Holy Living
Wednesday 23rd April
Text: Matthew 7: 21-23
Key verse: Not everyone that saith unto Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven but he that doeth the will of My Father which is in heaven. Matthew 7: 21
There is a difference between divine call to service and entering Heaven. Not all that serve the Lord will go to Heaven. If you know this truth, then take extra steps to see how you can perfect that brother or sister who is not doing well. To bring the brother or sister to perfection, requires wisdom and diligent persuasion. In the same way therefore, you must persuade your family members. The Bible says, “I beseech you dearly beloved.” I am pleading with you. Christ also is pleading with us. You have to persuade your family members. Persuade them, because tradition, deception and human pride have made man tough. It is by persuasion that some of them can be saved.
When Elisha told Naaman, "Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall come again and you will be clean.” Naaman was not happy about it and went away. Naaman's servant went to him and persuaded him to obey, and the Bible said his body became clean like that of a child. The persuasion worked on him.
Talk to your family members, relations, neighbours, friends, church members, and fellow ministers. Persuade people from other religions to accept Jesus. Persuade ignorant ministers, that they may become Heaven bound preachers. That is what God demands from you Christians walking in truth, righteousness and holiness. "Be ye perfect even as your father who is in Heaven is perfect."
Thought For The Day: Use persuasion to win men for Jesus
Song For The Day: Follow (2x), I will follow Jesus…
