THE WISDOM TO WIN SOULS

AUGUST 19th - CAPSULE 19

TOPIC: THE WISDOM TO WIN SOULS

BIBLE TEXT: Proverbs 11 vs. 30 – He that winneth soul is wise.

If you want to win someone to Christ today, use wisdom, especially in these 3 areas;

1. Don’t assume because they are raised in church that they understand; or because you’ve ‘lived the life’ before them, that they will get it by osmosis. Listen, “How can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard?” (Romans 10 vs. 14 NIV). Share your testimony – the short version. Forget the good advice, just give them the good news!

2. As much as you would like to close the deal right then, sometimes you have to sow the seed, and leave the rest to the Lord of the Harvest. Don’t try to corner them into praying the sinner’s prayer. Share the Word, leave the door open and trust the God who said, “I am watching over my Word to perform it” (Jeremiah 1 vs. 12).

3. When God speaks to you don’t out it off. R. A. Torrey had an experience that totally changed his attitude towards “soul-winning”. While eating in a restaurant with some friends, God impressed him to talk to the waiter about his soul. But he ignored it. An hour later, when the waiter didn’t return, Torrey inquired about him. The manager replied, “We just found him dead in the back of the restaurant. He hanged himself”. He committed suicide during the meal!

Prayer: Lord, let soul winning be my priority.

Insight: Remember when God leads you to speak to someone – do it! You may not get another opportunity.

Capsule One - (WHAT DO YOU WANT SO BADLY?)

May 1st – Capsule 1 TOPIC: WHAT DO YOU WANT SO BADLY? BIBLE TEXT: Let us lay aside every weight and sin which easily beset us … Hebrews 12 vs. 1 You will start getting well when getting well is what matters most to you. Let your desperation drive you beyond concern about the opinions of others. As long as you are more conscious of people than you are of God, you will never get what you need. When Hannah, Samuel’s mother, prayed in the temple, there was so much locked inside her that when she began to pray and pour her heart out, Eli thought she was drunk (see 1 Samuel 1 vs. 13). God is raising up people who will confound us – radical Christians. Like those on the day of Pentecost, they were hungry for God. They will raise the roof to get to Jesus. They had carefully laid plans, and cry like blind Bartimaeus, “Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me” (Mark 10 vs. 47). When you are blind, all that matters is receiving your sight. When it looks like there’s no way out fo...

DO TI NOW

May 11th – Capsule 11 TOPIC : DO IT NOW BIBLE TEXT : Redeeming the time, because the days are evil – Ephesians 5 vs. 16 How many times have you said, “I will do it tomorrow?” sometimes you put somethings off because you don’t think you know enough, can’t do it well enough. The fact is, there is no magic age at which excellence emerges and quality suddenly surfaces. Thomas Jefferson was 33 when he drafted the Declaration of Independence. Charles Dickens was 24 when he began his Pickwick Papers, and 25 when he wrote Oliver Twist. Newton was 24 when he formulated The Law of Gravity. A second danger is to think that creativity and invention belong to the young. Not so! Emmanuel Kant wrote his finest philosophical work at age 74. Verdi at 80 produced crossing the Bar, and Michelangelo completed his greatest work at 87, Moses was 80 when he led God’s people out of Egypt and 120 when he got to Canaan. Seize the day! Redeem the new moments of your life. Because the time and age ...

Sinner to Saint

Date 📅 20th October, 2022 Topic Sinner to Saint Living Scripture Romans 3:23 KJV For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; The journey of our convertion and transfiguration started when we decided to let go of our self and old ways and tune into the will of God by accepting Christ as Lord and Savior. Our Lord Jesus Christ is in the business of turning sinners to saints. Because of the fall of man from the beginning it was written that all mankind have sinned and come short of the supply of God's mighty glory. Which is why Christ Jesus died that we might be heirs and like heirs with Him in the kingdom of God. Without Jesus no one can be saved, all men without the knowledge and salvation of Christ are sinners. No man was born a saint, we are washed from stains, sins and disobedience into saints (children of God). The Bible is not full of men born as saints but rather men and women washed by the Blood of the Lamb of God and by the Word of God. Father Abrah...
