Hope For Your Family!
"God…did not spare the ancient world, but saved
Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteous-
ness, bringing in the flood on the world of the
ungodly."
2 Peter 2: 4-5
John MacArthur told of visiting an elderly lady who
was dying and didn’t know the
Lord. On the way to
her apartment, he prayed for wisdom yet felt more
and more uneasy.
When he entered the woman’s room, she said,
“Before you say anything, I just want to tell you
that yesterday my sister led me to Christ.”
In God’s timing family members can become powerful
tools for winning those in their homes. We assume no
one paid attention when Noah spoke of his faith and
God’s direction. A few people did. Noah converted
his family, and they were saved.
Do you have loved ones who aren’t saved? Take time
to pray for them. Turn Bible verses into prayers on their
behalf, and ask God for wisdom in knowing
how to bear
witness to them.
He is the One who will win them, but He can
use your words, attitudes, deeds, and example
in the process.
"If Peter could be transformed from a cursing denier
of Jesus into a preacher to thousands on Pentecost,
there’s hope for your father or mother."
