Become a soul winner

Become a soul winner
‘…he who wins souls is wise.’ Proverbs 11:30 NIV
When was the last time you prayed for your friends and family to become Christians? How often do you pray for that compared with how often you pray for yourself? Are you getting possessive about God and keeping Him to yourself? Everyone needs to know about His love and forgiveness and how amazing it is to be a Christian, not just you. Are you being selfish: God’s taking care of me, teaching me, helping me, guiding me? Are your prayers all about you? ‘God do this for me, help me with this, get me that, I want, I want, gimme, gimme!’
What about those people who don’t know Him yet? Your friends and family who don’t yet understand who Jesus is and how much they need Him? What about those people who feel so hurt or vulnerable? Or those who are addicted or abused and who don’t yet know about a God who can heal and set them free? What about those don’t yet know He’s their Saviour?
God’s bigger than us; He can handle us all. We don’t need to be selfish-there’s enough of Him to go around. In fact here’s a crazy thing: the more you give God away to others, the more of God you’ll get back! That’s why Proverbs says, ‘…he who wins souls is wise.’ Want more of God? Then be a Soul Winner! Tell everyone about Him and don’t hold back.
SoulFood Reading: Deut 28-29, Luke 11:29-44, Ps 119:1-8, Pr 17:3
