MFM Daily Devotional 22 April 2025 Message
Every soul-winner must consider himself a salesman of the gospel. A good salesman must be skillful in order to get results. Anyone skillful in his craft is professional in his approach, and to attain professionalism, you must commit to the skills. The Message version of the Bible, in Proverbs 22:29, puts it succinctly, “Observe people who are good at their work—skilled workers are always in demand and admired; they don’t take a back seat to anyone.”
Anyone who is good at his or her work is diligent, and diligence implies hard work, carefulness, and being thorough. The Bible provides various strategies and principles for effective soul-winning. By understanding and applying these strategies, believers can fulfill The Great Commission given by our Lord Jesus Christ to go and make disciples of all nations (Matthew 28:19-20).
READ MFM Daily Devotional 21 April 2025 – Why You Should Be A Soul Winner (II)
Strategy 1: Prayerful Preparation (Luke 10:2) – Before engaging in soul-winning, it is crucial to begin with prayer. Jesus instructed His disciples to pray for labourers to be sent into the harvest field. Prayer invites God’s guidance, wisdom, and empowerment in the process of reaching out to souls.
Strategy 2: Building Relationships (1 Corinthians 9:22) – Developing genuine relationships with people provides a platform for sharing the Gospel with them. Paul talked about becoming all things to all people in order to win some. Building trust and rapport opens doors for meaningful conversations about faith.
Strategy 3: Living as Examples (Matthew 5:16) – Leading a life that reflects the teachings of Jesus is a powerful testimony. People are often drawn to the light of Christ shining through the actions and character of believers.
Strategy 4: Sharing Personal Testimonies – Testimonies of personal encounters with Christ carry significant impact. Sharing how Jesus has transformed lives can resonate deeply with those who are seeking truth or struggling in their own journeys. Revelation 12:11 speaks of overcoming by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of our testimony.
