TELL THEM: 120 REASONS WHY YOU MUST BE A SOUL WINNER (PART 4)

Scripture: Luke 19: 15-16

Topic: Tell them: 120 reasons why you must be a Soul Winner (Part 4) 

In this series of our Quiet Time, we study the reasons why believers ought to be ardent soul winners. It is time that as believers we obey the commandments of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and hasten our steps towards the salvation of the lost and the dying in the world.

 

1.      4. You must be a soul winner because soul winning fulfills the principle of gaining and trading.

“ And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading. Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds”

Luke 19: 15-16

God has given us His great salvation. He expects us to take this pound of salvation and share it. When we share what he has given us, the gift of God increases. Do you want more anointing on your life? There is a process by which anointing and gifts increase. It is called “ gaining by trading”.

“ ….that he might know how much every man had GAINED BY TRADING

Luke 19: 15

The more you do God’s work, the more the anointing increases. Do not forget the story of the master who gave his servants ten pounds. He told them, “ Occupy until I come”.

When the master came back, some of the servants had more than others.

“ Then came the first, saying, Lord, THY POUND [anointing] HATH GAINED ten pounds”.

Luke 19:16

The pounds represents the anointing. The pound represents the gifts that God has given you. That gift supernaturally increases as you begin working! When you plunge into soul winning and evangelism, the anointing on your life will double and triple. I see you gaining by trading! I see you gaining new anointing by trading with what God has given you! I see you preaching to thousands and doing miracles!

I always enjoy going back to the classroom where I began my ministry. Sometimes, I stand outside the window of the classroom where I began and stare at the few chairs within it. I remember preaching to about ten people.

For years, I have been in the pulpit, preaching every Sunday and Tuesday. At the beginning, I preached to about five people. But I have definitely gained by trading. I now minister to thousands of people every week. I always thank God for His mercy.

    The anointing and gifts doubles and triples as you use it.

REASONS WHY YOU MUST REDEEM THE TIME - PART 4

Scripture: Psalm 90:9-12 Topic: You must redeem the time because that is the only wise thing to do with your life. Unfortunately, many people do not treat time and opportunity as a special commodity. Time is something rare and precious, which God gives to all of us. It is the only thing you cannot regain or get back. When it is gone, it is gone forever. God’s admonition to us is to use the time we have on earth to do as much for Him as possible. We must work while it is day. The only wise thing to do with your life is to redeem the time for the work of the Lord. "For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a tale that is told. The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.  Who knoweth the power of thine anger? Even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath. So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts un...

THE POWER OF BEING THANKFUL - PART 6

Scripture : Romans 1:21 Topic : Unthankfulness in a person is a door to many evils.  "Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, NEITHER WERE THANKFUL; BUT BECAME VAIN IN THEIR IMAGINATIONS, AND THEIR FOOLISH HEART WAS DARKENED..."  Romans 1:21 The scripture above shows us clearly that many of the evils and perversions in this world came through unthankfulness. When men discovered more about the creation and discovered the beautiful earth that God had made, they were not thankful.  When they discovered planets, when they discovered the moon and when they discovered the stars, they were not thankful to God. And because they were unthankful, they became vain in their imaginations. Your imaginations become more vain, the more unthankful you are.  When people are unthankful they become almost mad. Their unthankfulness is a form of insanity. Why would you not be grateful for the oxygen you breathe, the air you breathe, the water you drink, the life t...

WHY PRAYER IS MYSTERIOUS PART 3.

WHY PRAYER IS MYSTERIOUS PART 3.  Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 5:17.  Topic: Why Prayer is Mysterious Part 3.  Prayer is mysterious because God is mysterious! God is mysterious and there is nothing we can do about it! If you think you will ever know everything about God then you must think again! God is not a man and we cannot know everything about Him. It is precisely because of the mysteries surrounding God that a lot of people do not pray.  In this series of our quiet time we will see the mysteries surrounding prayer and we will learn that these mysteries should not keep us from prayer but rather draw us closer in search of answers. 3. Mysteriously, God seems to want us to keep asking about the same things even though we have asked Him before.  "Pray without ceasing." 1 Thessalonians 5:17  If God did not know about our problems on the first day, He must know our problems and our needs by the third day of our prayer. If He knows all things so well, why does...
