Revelation
I got this from wyelin's LJ, she said
"God is really amazing, little things like confessing your love to your mum would really bring their salvation. Why not? We just need a little confidence, plus the courage and the right words from the HS. POOF, i bet your mum would be down at the altar call too!"
Now that's something that blew me away.
And I began to remember what Adam said, soul winning is not difficult. If you have the HS with you, even the simplest, most mundane things, can change someone's life.
Just like how khan came.
His story is just so amazing. During easter elaine brought a friend, and that friend of hers, brought HIS friend, and that was khan.
He never knew us, he only knew elaine's friend.
Yet on his first visit, he received Christ. A total stranger, felt God and received Him. We only got to know him after he got saved.
He's not local btw, he's a scholar from overseas, who came to singapore to study. Imagine a guy, who's all alone in a foreign country, with maybe just one or two friends or a couple of friends in school, his family is in Vietnam, he experiences God and responds.
Thats just so amazing.
I like what timo said on the train last night, God didnt say, "Love God and win people", He said, "Love God and LOVE people."
So many times we try to win them. But really, its about loving people.
Relationship precedes ministry.
Maybe after saying this ull get a whole new perspective of soul winning.
Its not about winning the soul, its about having a deep relationship with God and a great love for people. Personally I feel, yes winning the lost is important to God, yet wouldnt a Father, treasure his child more? Wouldnt a father give to his child, whats best for him?
God wants to empower you, He can do all things, do the impossible and make soul winning just miraculously easy for you!
Think for a moment. Do you think God cant win souls for Himself?
It might sound something simple, but I thought of it and its a really profound question. He can give you encounters, cause manna to drop from heaven, when people commit suicide, they survive, etc.
He can win souls better than us, YET!
Why is it, that He asks US to reach out? Its because of the relationship, its because of that sense of partnership, its because God doesnt just wanna win souls, He wants to do it WITH US because He longs to fellowship with us.
In a way, you can put it this way, God is withholding His true power, just for us, just so that He can come to our level and really do things through us that will astound us. =)
Thats how He wins our hearts.
Thats how He won yours.
Not because of something big, but because of something small and simple.
But yet because its from God, no matter how small that act may be, maybe its just saying, "I love you", the effect lasts for eternity and thats why you're still here.
Its not just about saying "I love you", anyone can say I love you, but its saying those words, empowered by the HS, its about saying it in a way, as if God said it to them! Saying words like, "I understand what ure going through", "You are never alone."
Anyone can say those words, but its really words that are empowered by the HS that will change lives, when those words become empowered, not only are you saying it, God is saying it at the same time! And a place of agreement is a place of power!
Its not just about winning their hearts, trying to change them, or meeting needs, if you dont have love and if ure doing it all by urself, ure missing the whole point!
Thats why ps always say, have an ATTITUDE of soul winning, not an ACT of soul winning. Its an attitude, not just some methods or some deeds you do.
When Im showering, God speaks to me the most haha. He spoke so many things that I forgot one of them. =/ Thats why I try to blog as fast as I can.
Yes, dont imagine, but sometimes I blog naked LOL. Cus I chiong out of the shower and quickly put those revelation into words. Because a rhema can come and go, and you can end up totally missing on it.
Sometimes God is like that, be quick to listen, quick to obey.
But please..just because my blog is nice to read because I blog naked, doesnt mean all of u must blog naked HAHAHA!
Dont copy my method. Experience God for yourself. :)
Its time for a paradigm shift in the area of evangelism...
