As Christians it is our duty to take the gospel and share it with those we come in contact with. According to the great commission Jesus says in Mark 16:15 “And he said unto them, go ye into the entire world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” We ought to be soul winners because Jesus Himself was a soul winner. As Christians we should strive to follow in the footsteps of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ. Mark 1:17 tells us “And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.”
As we begin to exercise the great commission we produce fruit by winning people to the Lord. Acts 11:21 confirms “And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number believed, and turned unto the Lord.” When we share the gospel it is inevitable that people will be saved and the hearts of people become touched and changed. When you go into a lost and dying world the wonder working power of the gospel is seen and healings are seen, it builds you up in your faith and makes the gospel that much more real to you. When you do the work of the kingdom and begin to seek God to reach people through soul winning the Holy Ghost empowers you. According to Acts 1:8 “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.”
As children of God, the born again believer we are witnesses and examples for the world to see the very character of Christ. Our conduct as Christians is a witness to the unbeliever as to who Jesus is. When we go soul winning people will be drawn to Christ because of who they see Jesus is in you. Therefore it is important to always teach and lead by example. Matthew 28:19 says “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.” When you teach people the gospel and you are passionate you carry the presence of Jesus Christ with you. In praying for people I become excited about the work God is doing because of the overflow of the work the Lord has done in me.
Because He has carried me, strengthened me, and healed me. When ministering to people they pick up on that and they are instantly drawn to that and they desire to dedicate their lives to Christ. We must be zealous in our efforts and approach people with confidence because of the gift we carry that is so precious. Romans 1:16 “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” When we share the gospel openly it sets us free and edifies our faith as people turn to the Lord and you are able to impact their lives for eternity.
