“The work of seeking the lost, like the work of saving them, is in reality a divine undertaking.” – Lewis Sperry Chafer in “True Evangelism”
The work we do in evangelism is God’s work, and He has chosen to do it through us! Today, I want us to pray for God work in the hearts of those we seek to reach. The focus of today is not the people we hope to reach, but on God, the one who reaches them. The work we do is dependent on Him. Dwell upon who He is and how merciful He is to save souls. How comforting it is to know that this work is not dependent on us, but on Him. In our hope to seek the lost and our hope to save them, we must depend on God to guide us and empower us.
The power of prayer and to be reminded of this during the workday, brings me back to focus on the greatness of God and the Holy Spirit. Thanks Ryan for the reminder.
