‘As a saint, my life’s spiritual honor and duty is
to fulfill my debt to Christ in relation to these lost souls. Every tiny bit of
my life that has value I owe to the redemption of Jesus Christ. Am I doing
anything to enable Him to bring His redemption into evident reality in the
lives of others? I will only be able to do this as the Spirit of God works into
me this sense of indebtedness. […]Quit praying about yourself and spend your
life for the sake of others as the bondservant of Jesus. That is the true
meaning of being broken bread and poured-out wine in real life.’ CHAMBERS
Do you feel an obligation to tell others about Jesus
or do you dread it? Are you focused on what
their response might be towards you and avoid the conversation? I preached at a Haitian church yesterday and
talked to the Christians about being ready when Nicodemus knocks on your door. Are you ready to tell people about Jesus ..
about being born again .. or are you hoping that you won’t be put in that
situation? How you feel about it reveals
where you are spiritually. Do you think
your salvation is simply for you? Or do
you believe that God has empowered you, expecting you to tell others. You know you can’t save anyone .. but you can
tell them about Jesus … that is your part.
The problem is that if Jesus is not important to you … if He is not the
priority in your life … then you will likely avoid any discussions about
Him. The Bible says .. be ready (1 Peter
3:15) .. know the Gospel and stay connected to the Vine …. you never know when God
will bring Nicodemus to your door …
