MFM Daily Devotional 18 August 2023 MESSAGE
There are various processes where a soul can be led to salvation. According to our memory verse, the Bible 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: teach them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and lo, I am with you always even unto the end of the world” (Matthew 28:19-20). It is your assignment as a believer to give men something worth their hearing.
You are to preach the gospel to every creature. That cannot be done without teaching and teaching the great truths of revelation. The gospel is ‘news” (good news). There is information in it. There are also instructions in it concerning matters which men need to know and statements in it to bless those who hear it. You are to teach them what to “believe”, what to ‘escape from, what to ‘fly’ from and what to ‘repent’ from.

You must preach Christ and His wounds and the doctrine of atonement by sacrifice. It is your assignment as a believer to make mento know the truth that they may believe it and feel its power. You are to save men in the darkness by the power of the Holy Ghost; you are to seek to turn them from darkness to light (Act 26:18). A sinner has a heart as well as a head, a sinner also has emotions as well thought and you must appeal to both because a sinner will never be converted until his emotions are stirred. Therefore you must prayerfully and strategically apply a weapon that will make him or her feel sorrow for sin.
We have various strategies whereby you can evangelise. You can evangelise by sharing tracts, film saturation and by giving the testimonies of your own conversion. You can also evangelise on your knees (having the list of unbelievers you are praying for to be saved). In John 4:5-29 we learnt that Jesus evangelised prophetically. You can evangelise with your personal phone (social media/internet evangelism). I pray that God will inspire you with the right evangelism strategies that will be fruitful for you, in the name of Jesus.
