John 15:16 “Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should GO AND BRING FORTH FRUIT, and that your FRUIT SHOULD REMAIN: that WHATSOEVER ye shall ask of the Father in my name, HE MAY GIVE IT YOU”.  GOD has created so many channels to meet us at…

John 15:16 “Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should GO AND BRING FORTH FRUIT, and that your FRUIT SHOULD REMAIN: that WHATSOEVER ye shall ask of the Father in my name, HE MAY GIVE IT YOU”. 

GOD has created so many channels to meet us at the point of our needs. In John 15:16, the LORD JESUS gives us an open certified cheque that we can cash, as we do our own part of the transaction. Jehovah wants believers to partner with Him and experience dividends of our collaboration in the task of winning souls. God wants every believer to be involved in the project that cost the life of His Son. God gave everything He had for the salvation of mankind. The price for the redemption of every soul on earth has been paid at the Cross. Jesus took our place at the Cross to redeem us from the curse of sin, death and eternal damnation. Most people are still wallowing in bondage and oppression, not knowing the absolute price that has been paid for their emancipation. The Power of God unto salvation is only through the Gospel of our LORD JESUS CHRIST. The purpose of Christ’s death must be appropriated through the preaching of the Gospel. John 1:12 “But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His Name”. The most Potent Blood in the Universe is available and has been shed by JESUS, the Perfect LAMB of God. The greatest assignment of the believer today is soul winning. Jesus declares that we have a Holy ordination and appointment to go out and win souls. He declares emphatically that a unique and special election has been placed on every believer. We are expected to preach the Good News of salvation to everyone around us starting from our Jerusalem even unto the uttermost part of the world. The resources of Heaven back our strategic soul winning drive. We create a great deal of rejoicing in Heaven when we win souls. Heaven recognises and honours soul winners. God’s irrevocable promise is that if we bear fruit and ask for what we desire, it will be done unto us. In the face of terrorism ravaging the world, we cannot keep quiet, as we need to win souls. In every labour, there is profit. God will always take good care of soul winners. 

 As we put the Kingdom of God first by winning souls, every other thing shall be added to us. You must not be spiritually barren. We must win souls daily. Like Dr. D. L. Moody (a soul winner), we must not go to bed daily without winning at least one soul to the LORD.   

PRAYER: Father God, I accept the un-qualified privilege of being an ambassador of the Kingdom of God. I will not keep quiet, seeing sinners go to hell. I will by the Grace of God reach out to sinners everyday. I position myself to be a soul winner. I trust God to win souls daily. As I populate the Kingdom of God with souls, God will populate my life with His blessings.
