What are your experiences with sharing the Gospel?
My friend and I went out yesterday and spoke to random people at a garden near place. We led one person to Christ. Others were really touched and would probably come to our Church. It was a great experience. We realized that we need a good prayer support people backing us if we are to do it again.
What are your experiences? I am hoping to learn from you all.
I have never gone out to pass tracts, or go looking for people to get saved. However I have managed to lead many of my family members and work mates to Christ.
Just last week I lead my cousin sister to the Lord. I had been praying for her for one year. When she came to visit, she had an epileptic fit.We invited her to stay for at least a month.(we suffered financially because of this, however what is a soul compared to money?).
Now she is growing in the Lord and has tasted the power of Christ by experiancing deliverence from nightmares.
Despite many succeses, I have also had failures. I rememebr a sikh at work was against me after I got saved. He acused me of changing my religion and a traitor to Sikism. The Lord instructed me to pray for him and speak to him.I kept on putting it off for tommorow and he got sacked. I now do not know where he is. He was really drawn and shocked by my testimony of being healed.I should have paid much attention.I could have done much more.
Another incident I rememebr is the first time I told a lady at work about the Lord and she just told me that I cannot tell her what to do. Her words pierced me like an arrow and I was deeply ofended for i was trying to help her. I did not dare to talk to others again until the Lord set me free from the demonic attack that came in from me recieving her words and paying alot of attention to her.
I have now learnt alot from the word of God and I now am getting many at work and in family to the Lord.
I just marvel at how many miracles Jesus has doone for these people.
One person I led to the Lord at work, went on to lead his wife to the Lord and stopped his daughter from aborting her baby.He is doing a great job for the Lord in his own family. He is a refreshing to my wery soul.
One sad situation was when Ijust got saved. I was woken up at night to pray for my mums sister, and I did.
However in those days I used to spend all my spare time playing playstation. I was saved and was enjoying my salvation and healing and freedom from fears. However I missed the leading of the Lord because of spending all time playing playstation rather that to continue to pray for others in my family and build myself spiritually with the sincere milk of the word.
She was later murdered by her husband leaving the children as orphans. I went to the Lord in prayer asking where He was and why He didnt stop it. I was shocked when the Lord asked me where I was when it hapeened. This was a real wake up call for me. I do not live a luke warm christian life any more. I do not play playstation any more and spend all my spare time in worship prayer and word.
I can tell you the details of my succeses and failures if you want. I have since learnt alot from the word of God and now am able to help many.
