“The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life,
and whoever captures souls is wise.” - Proverbs 11:30 ESV“My brothers, if anyone among you wanders from the truth and someone brings him back, let him know that whoever brings back a sinner from his wandering will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.” - James 5:19-20 ESV
If we really love God and have received this free gift of salvation — then we should want to share it! Winning souls is the heart of God. He so loves us, that he sacrificed His son to literally snatch us out of Hell.
“You have never locked eyes with another person that God does not love.”
Soul winning is something that God takes seriously, therefore, we should also make it our priority. It is not our wisdom or our fancy words that will win people. It is the power of the gospel.
As we were praying for souls during our Tuesday night corporate prayer, I began to pray for the laborers. I continued hearing the word, “unconventional”. — “I am raising up laborers that will be used, not even knowing that are being used. It will be a word, a phrase, a motion, a look, that triggers a memory of the love of God they felt in the past. It will draw them back into the house of God and into the presence of God!”
Let’s get busy soul winning and become the laborers!
