Seize The Moment: Preach The Gospel Now

-
Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season;
reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and
doctrine (2 Timothy 4:2).
Our opening verse was Apostle Paul’s charge to
Timothy. He said, “Preach the word; be instant in
season, out of season....” This is God’s charge to you today;
preach the Word, in season and out of season. There’re
nations today where you can’t preach the Gospel openly, but
some years ago, they were open. Preach the Word now
before the doors of some nations are closed; some cities will
be closed very soon, and you won’t be able to preach the
Gospel there, like you can now.
There’re many ways that a nation or city gets closed.
For instance, when in a country, there’re cities and states
where you can’t organize open-air gospel meetings because
of prohibitions, it means that city or nation is closed. Even
when you attempt to organise such meetings, the security
agencies will tell you, “We can’t accept or allow you to do
it.” Another example is when some nations enact laws against
conversion, so that it becomes difficult for a Christian to
lead someone else to Christ. Some even prohibit personal
conversion; meaning, no one is allowed to convert himself
from the state religion to Christianity.
Jesus said, “I must work the works of him that sent me,
while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work”
(John 9:4). The time to preach the Gospel is now! If the Spirit
of God is leading you and giving you a vision to organize
soul-winning outreaches, do it quickly. Seize the moment! If

Gospel Now
you wait, it might be too late. Be relentless in your evangelical
work.
Don’t take it for granted if you’re still able to distribute
Rhapsody of Realities in your city or country; do it more now,
while you can. Pray for the nations of the world, and move
quickly. Treasure the freedom and opportunities you have
now to preach the Gospel.
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the
opportunities I have to preach
the Word to those around me.
I move with the speed and
urgency of the Spirit, guided by
your wisdom in leading many to
righteousness. I receive increased
grace and ability to fulfil the
ministry of reconciliation to those
in my world, and in the regions
beyond, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

What does the Bible say about setting goals?

-

The Bible offers a balanced approach to setting goals that includes making plans yet doing so with wisdom and humility. Jesus’ illustration of building a tower implies that it is a good thing to have set goals ( Luke 14:28 ). To live with no motivation or planning is not God’s desire.  Proverbs 6:6-11  says, “Go to the ant, O sluggard;     consider her ways, and be wise. Without having any chief,     officer, or ruler, she prepares her bread in summer     and gathers her food in harvest. How long will you lie there, O sluggard?     When will you arise from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber,     a little folding of the hands to rest, and poverty will come upon you like a robber,     and want like an armed man.” Laziness causes a person to neglect work and fail to exploit the window of opportunity. Summer is the preparation time for winter, and we dare not wile it away. Failure to plan ahead will result in “poverty” and “want.” Wisely setting goals leads to better results: “Th

How do I know if I am a Christian?

Jesus taught that the condition of a person’s heart will manifest itself in his or her behavior: “No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit. Each tree is recognized by its own fruit. People do not pick figs from thornbushes, or grapes from briers. A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart” ( Luke 6:43–45 ; cf.  Matthew 7:16 ). So, when considering whether or not you are a Christian, you can consider the kind of fruit that is produced in the life of a Christian: 1.  Complete trust in Christ’s death and resurrection as sufficient payment for the debt we owe God.  A Christian is one who  trusts Christ  exclusively. Doubts come when we fear we must add something to the work of Christ to ensure our salvation.  Ephesians 2:8–9  makes it clear that we are not saved by our works, but by God’s grace alone. No matter how righteous we may appear, none of us come close to e
