Hello my lovelies and welcome to ‘An Inquisitive Mind - Illumination through Christ’💡. I recently finished studying the Book of Acts (which is fully loaded by the way). There are so many lessons to learn about the Holy Spirit, transformation, sacrifice, community and so much more. Although, I felt led to share my reflections about salvation, the church and the body of Christ at large. I asked what my part to play was - in all of this and reflected on the question which I pose to you - ‘Do you care enough? If you do - how so? How much do you care about the salvation of your fellow brothers and sisters ?
I came to the realisation that I had not been as proactive as I feel I should be. Yes, I have an individual relationship with God but started thinking what about about my neighbour, my work colleagues, the ‘random’ receptionist at my dentist and even my friends.
I mean it’s all well and good saying I know the Lord but the good news is meant to be shared - not withheld. Although, once shared what do I actually do about it then? I appreciate not wanting to be perceived as too pushy, overbearing or uneducated but we see in Acts how bold and brave Paul was. He would travel long journeys, proclaim the good news boldly even knowing that it would land him in trouble (prison). We can see towards the end he even spent long periods of time with others and invested his own resources to ensure people not only ‘knew’ God but could ‘experience’ Him.
Proverbs 27:17 highlights to us that iron sharpens iron, so we must encourage and sharpen one another in the word of God. This is an important reminder and I hope to take action in ensuring I prioritise others salvation too.
Let’s pray -
Father Lord, please help me to make it a priority to become more proactive in winning souls for you.
I no longer want to be selfish...only thinking about myself but rather I want to be bold enough to encourage others in their walk. Let this not just be by my lips but by my deeds.
Please reveal to me the ways in which you want me to do so, and may I be effective in supporting them in their walk with you. Amen !
