‘Soul-Winning’
Proverbs 11:30 (KJV) The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.
1. Sixty three years ago the greatest joy a person enter my life, Jesus became my personal Saviour. For sixty years the second greatest joy has entered into my heart time and time again as I have won souls to Christ.
Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
God wants us all to be soulwinners. The second greatest joy you can experience is the winning of a soul.
The question is:
Are you seeking out the lost ones
Whom the Saviour died to win?
Are you showing them the Fountain
That can wash away their sin?
Are you looking by the wayside
For the weary ones who fall?
Do you win them to the Master
Who has promised rest to all!
2. I love this prayer.
"Lord, lay some soul upon my heart,
And love that soul through me;
And may I nobly do my part,
To win that soul to Thee."—David Johnson.
3. Today is the day of Salvation.
If we put off repentance another day, we have a day more to repent of, and a day less to repent in.
Nineteen out of every twenty who become Christians do so before they reach the age of 24.
After 25, only one in 10,000 After 35, only one in 40,000 After 45, only one in 200,000 After 55, only one in 300,000 After 65, only one in 500,000 After 74, only one in 700,000.
4. God give us a burden for souls.
I care not where I go or how I live or what I endure so that I may save souls. When I sleep, I dream of them; when I awake, they are first in my thoughts.
David Brainerd.
There has never be a time like today when there is so much fear, especially to win your family.
Isaiah 6:8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.
