Hey! and welcome, it’s amazing to have you here, stay blessed:)
A long time ago in children church there’s this song we’d sing “I will make you fishers of men, fishers of men, fishers of men, I will make you fishers of men, if you follow me”. This song came from Matthew 4:19, where Jesus is seen getting his disciples and he comes across the brothers(fishers) Simon and Andrew and he says to them to follow him and he will make them fishers if men. Isn’t it amazing that as people in Jesus, we are ordained to fish for other people to join us? This is the great commission and the primary duty of any believer.
It is sad that these days, believers chose to focus on secondary things and what we can get from God than what God wants from us. I’ve been like that for a while, being in the faith but not telling others about the faith. There’s joy in heaven over a soul that turns to God, I’ve realized that it’d be lovely to be a constant joy giver to heaven. Seeing how amazing being in Christ is, it is only so selfless to let others know about it. The gospel is meant to be shared, the same way it was shared to us; it is meant to be shared to others too. Our lifestyle is a major instrument of soul winning, we can win people to Jesus by being who God has called us to be, holy, faithful and shining lights on earth. Seeing the life of people living in Christ, representing heaven and doing the will of God and equally enjoying the blessings that come with that is what shows the world the difference between being in the world and being with and in God.
A deliberate attempt to life like Jesus will help with soul winning. Also, going out to tell friends, family and people we come across about the finished work of Jesus for them and how much Jesus longs to have a relationship with them backed up with prayers for their souls is another major way of being a fisher of men. In doing this, we are being obedient to God and we’re in line with his will for our lives which is to go out and tell the world about him. It starts with you and I, we’re not to wait for our pastors or evangelists, we don’t have to be anything apart from being born again to preach the gospel. A simple “Jesus loves you” that you will say will help a soul escape hell.
Go out! You’re an ambassador of heaven, you’re to represent Christ in lifestyle and verbally, also in intercession. Tell somebody about Jesus, because only then shall we be many! The Holyspirit will help us in Jesus name.
