40 Prayers For Mission And Evangelism
Dearly beloved brethren, we all through the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ have been given the mandate to proclaim the gospel of the Lord all over the world. It’s our duty to bring an unbeliever into the light of Jesus Christ. Just as it was in the days of the old where the apostles went around the world healing the sick and winning souls for the Lord, we, the present day apostles are required to do the same as our predecessors. It’s worthy to note that whenever a soul is won on Earth, there’s usually a great rejoice that goes on in Heaven.Â
Evangelizing the gospel of Christ needs a lot of courage, perseverance and willingness to be able to win souls into God’s glorious kingdom.Â
You need the courage to be able to walk up to an unbeliever to bring the person into the knowledge of Christ. This is why you need to read the portions of the Bible that speaks about evangelism and how courageous the apostles were. You need perseverance to be able to endure whatever reproach, persecution, and repelling attitude that these unbelievers are likely to show you. Perseverance is essential in winning souls for Christ. You have to study the passages in the Bible that speak deeply on perseverance and how you can win over a soul with this attribute. You need willingness, to be able to successfully win over a person to come into agreement or acceptance of what you preach, you’ve to be first willing to do this assignment of evangelism. There are bible passages that can stir up your spirit-man to be eager and willing always to preach the word of Christ in spite of the persecution that you might face during this time.Â
Are we all expected to be evangelists of Christ? Yes, we all affirm, we must all be Christ’s evangelists. Wherever you are, whether it’s your place of work, your business places, your schools, on the streets, in public transports, at the marketplace, at an event and so on, you’re expected to introduce a new person to the good news of Christ.Â
