Everyday Evangelism

“…for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.” (Luke 19:10; NKJV)

His work is our work. There is no greater work than seeking out those who need Jesus and introducing them to the Savior. On a daily basis pray for…

Doors of opportunity. “Continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilant in it with thanksgiving; meanwhile praying also for us, that God would open to us a door for the word, to speak the mystery of Christ” (Colossians 4:2-3; NKJV). Pray for open doors to share Him. Pray for opportunities daily. Pray without ceasing…

Courage. Paul asked the Colossians to pray that he would make the gospel “manifest, as I ought to speak” (Colossians 4:2-4; NKJV). It takes courage to make the invisible One manifest (1 Timothy 1:17). Pray for faith in the unseen. Pray without ceasing…

Wisdom. “Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time” (Colossians 4:5; NKJV). Wisdom is needed in sharing Christ. To be effective one’s speech must “always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one” (Colossians 4:6; NKJV). Pray for wise words. Pray without ceasing…

Christlikeness. The more like “the light of the world” (John 8:12) I become the brighter my light will shine (Matthew 5:16). As others see Him in me, doors will begin to open. Pray for Him to shine forth from the depth of your being. Pray without ceasing…

Love for one’s neighbor. To “love your neighbor as yourself” is the second greatest commandment (Mark 12:31). Perhaps the second greatest love is to introduce someone to the one who participated in the greatest act of love: “Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends” (John 15:13; NKJV). Pray for love for your neighbors. Pray without ceasing…

Participate in evangelism everyday!
