When was the last time that you shared the gospel with someone, or heard it from someone else? Many times, God places the lives of individuals within our path, but what do we do? Do we save them from eternal damnation? Or leave them to wallow in their shadowy graves?
Strict as I may sound, I must frankly rebuke myself also. Even though it was my duty to fulfill the Great Commission, I have failed to do so many times, letting the opportunity slip away. But in Matthew 28:18-20, the Bible said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
Mat 28:19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
Mat 28:20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age."
However, I warn that Satan is in work. He will distract us from whatever be holding us back now, anything, be it studying or even worldly goals. Anything would do! As long as you are not doing your part for the Great Commission, Satan will have achieved!
But even though I may lack the courage, the inspiration, and the motivation, I know that God has given me all authority, and He will provide all I require. So, I will do my part for God, that I will leave a wake of saved souls in my wake, and now, I pray that God will sanctify me and prepare me in this task. Dear friends, do you ever see images of your closest family and friends, yet to be saved, the snapshots of them being burnt by fire? Do join me as well as the millions of other Christians, because we know that our works will not be in vain. Certificates, diplomas, money and life are not forever. They are temporal. But not so for this! Even though we gain completely nothing here, and that the world is a very skeptic one, what greater joy can there be, when you are called on to the LORD in heaven, greet Him and praise Him, an individual comes towards you and thanks you for saving his soul... Praise God for such a wonderful gift!
