Your Mission - Winning The Lost - Part 1

Therefore go and make [THEM MY] disciples …
Matthew 28:19

We each have different gifts, but God has given us all the same mission: "Go make [them My] disciples" That's the great commission, not the great suggestion! And it's not just for pastors and missionaries, it's for you! And it's mandatory, binding and urgent. Listen: "you must warn them so they may live. If you don't they will die in their sin. But I will hold you responsible" (Ezekiel 3:18 ). 'But I'm not good with words', you say. So what? If you can interview for a job, apply for a loan, or propose to your husband or wife, surely you can say something on behalf of Christ. Can you imagine having a cure for cancer and keeping it to yourself? Sharing the greatest news is the greatest kindness you can show to anyone. One problem long-term Christians have is - they forget how hopeless it felt to be without Christ. Another problem is - they mix so much with church people that they forget how to communicate with non-church people. No matter how contented or successful the people around you appear to be, without Christ they're empty and lost, eternally lost! You are the only Christian somebody knows; there are people that only you can reach because of where you live and what God has made you to be. If just one person is in heaven because of God working through you, your life will have made a difference. So, start looking around at your personal mission field and begin to pray, 'God, who have You put in my life today who needs to know about Jesus?'

Prayer
Father in Heaven, Help me to serve and to share your mercy and compassion with others and when they ask why to always point to and share about you. In Jesus' Name, Amen
