BE A WITNESS FOR CHRIST
“Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ? John 4:29 (KJV)
Beloved, wherever you go, let people know you are a believer. Shine as light! Leave people better than the way you met them even without them seeing your Bible. Become the walking, talking Bible they may ever get to know. All the woman at the well of Samaria had to say was, ‘’come see a man’’ That was all the message she had to talk about and today, what she said about Jesus is still being preached and taught all over the world. She was a true witness.
The Bible tells us in the book of Acts 11 that Phillip and the entire Apostles witnessed their faith even in the very face of persecution. The scriptures tell us in verses 19–20 that they were scattered all over the place preaching the word and planting churches all over different cities. And some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene who when they have come to Antioch speak unto the Grecian preaching the Lord Jesus. What were these men preaching? They preached to the Lord Jesus. Beloved, everything in the scriptures is all about Jesus. It is the unveiling of Jesus. When you preach and Jesus is not unveiled, faith will never come. I encourage you to preach Jesus everywhere you go.
You don’t need a pulpit to preach. The world out there is your pulpit. Find the time to tell someone about Jesus. And even when you reference the Old Testament, let Jesus come out of it so that people will be grounded and established in the Lord.
Let me remind you that you are not here today by accident. You are here for a specific assignment. God has positioned you as the light of the world. So, let your light shine for all to see. God does not want you to use your faith only to receive material blessings. Use your faith also to snatch people out of the hands of the devil and by implication hell.
