Preach It!


And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. (Mark 16:15 KJV)

Have you ever been deeply in love with someones? Or have you ever been so excited about something new?... You were so giddy and you couldn't keep the good news to yourself! All your friends, family and anyone that cared to listen just had to hear it...you just couldn't keep it to yourself!!!

Yeah I've been there too...I'm smiling to myself as I write this.

Well, this shouldn't just be a feeling or distant memory, it should be a daily occurrence.

The Lord Jesus has committed the preaching of his gospel-the real good news into our hands. If we seat back and think, we can not deny that he's been too good, too faithful, too merciful, too gracious (the list is eternal). Someone needs to hear how good God is, someone needs to know that God loves them, someone needs to know that Jesus paid the ultimate price for their life. Some people won't hear this good news until YOU tell it to them...yes I mean YOU!!! 

The whole thought of winning souls may sound overwhelming or boring to you. That's because you think you have to do it by yourself. However, scriptures say that we are co laborers with Christ (1 Corinthians 3:9; 2 Corinthians 6:1), simply put we are his "coworkers". He's already done the work, we are just his spokesmen, his recruiters. There's no need to stress on the job, just do your part and get rewarded for it. People are waiting for you (John 4:34-35; Luke 10:2), stop procrastinating! You don't have to go on a mission trip to preach the good news, they're souls all around you: in your neighborhood, at work, school, etc. Just take a few minutes to tell them what the Lord has done.

When you preach the gospel, Jesus shows up on the scene (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:20). There is no need to worry about whether or not the person will give their lives, that's not your responsibility. Take the first step to open your mouth and the Holy Spirit will fill it with the right Words (Luke 12:12). The bible says that the person who wins souls is wise (Proverbs 11:30). Be wise, save people from eternal damnation. Team up with Jesus today and PREACH IT!



Confession: Father in the name of Jesus, I commit myself to winning souls for you. As I preach the gospel, I declare that the Lord shows up and confirms his Word with signs and wonders. Amen. 

Prayer starter: Father, I thank you for committing the great commission into my hands. I asked for creative ways to preach your gospel and win souls for you, in Jesus' name. Amen.




You're blessed!
