The Simplicity of Sharing the GospelЗразок

Trust the Holy Spirit You must trust that the Holy Spirit is working with you. As much as you want to see people saved, Jesus wants it more! The Holy Spirit is highly invested in evangelism. He lingers at the foot of the cross. He co-operates with soul winners because they do what is closest to God’s heart. Cultivate a deep conviction that when you share the gospel, the Holy Spirit – God Himself – works with you! That will make you fearless. If God is for you, who can be against you? This requires something called faith! Just as we are saved by faith, as followers of Jesus we live by faith. Is it any surprise that we must also evangelize “by faith?” * By faith we trust that the Holy Spirit has gone before us and prepared the hearts of those we encounter. * By faith we choose to view the encounters we have in our everyday lives as “divine appointments.” * By faith we trust that the Holy Spirit will give us the right words at the right moment as we share the gospel. * By faith we trust that the Holy Spirit will take those words and continue to use them in that person’s heart long after we’ve parted ways. But remember: every action of faith includes an element of risk. That is never going to change. So why would we risk our well-being and comfort for someone else? We find the answer in our next principle.
