Eager To Share!
"Knowing that your labor
is not in vain in the Lord."
1 Corinthians
15: 58
When a farmhand named Albert McMakin came to
Christ at age 24, he invited friends to go to a
revival
meeting with him; and one of them, 16-year-old
Billy Graham, did so and was converted.
Isn’t it encouraging to know that God can use
us to do great things when we simply obey His
Great Commission and do our part in sharing
Christ?
One of our tried and true methods is friendship and
relational
evangelism. Using our natural networks
of friendship and associations, we will often come
across a moment to share the Gospel.
invite someone to church, to a Christian concert,
or to an evangelistic event. Invite them to attend
Bible study with you. Share a verse of Scripture.
initiate a Gospel conversation. Say things like:
“The Lord bless you today,” and, “What
a
beautiful day God has made!”
Does the
other person respond? Plant seeds.
Share Christian books and magazines. Our
labor in the Lord is not in vain!
"No one ever hears the Gospel proclaimed
without making some kind of
decision. The
Spirit of God will go ahead of us when we
witness—preparing the way, giving us
words, granting us courage."
Billy Graham
