SOUL-WINNING IS YOUR PRIMARY ASSIGNMENT ON EARTH
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
Mark 16:15 (KJV)
When we say that something is of primary importance, we mean to say that it ranks first and that it is of first importance or value; that it is direct and immediate rather than secondary. If it is primary then it is the most important element of all considerations. As a believer, soul-winning is your primary assignment on earth. When you surrendered your heart to the Lord Jesus Christ, He would have called you home immediately; but He chose to leave you here on earth, why? It is because when you are born again, you become the Christ that your world sees; you become the extension of divinity to your sphere of contacts. You are now the light of your world; the salt of your world. They are lost and hopeless without you. Your presence produces preservation and illumination to your sphere of contacts. The instrument of that illumination is the gospel of Jesus Christ. 2 Corinthians 4:4 talks about the light of the glorious gospel of Christ. When you share the gospel, you are shining the light to your sphere of contacts. Your business/career is a vehicle to convey you to the people in your world. Your career/business is not your primary assignment. It is utter misplacement of priority to make your career/business as your primary assignment. Your business/career is only a point of contact for you to communicate the gospel to your world.
Our Lord Jesus commanded us to go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. You probably cannot go to all the world but you can go to your world. Your world is your sphere of contacts – your family, friends, colleagues, associates, and people you meet on a day to day basis. Beloved, your goal should be to present the gospel in such a clear term that everyone in your sphere has the opportunity to make a decision either to obey the gospel or not. Remember, you can persuade, you can compel but you cannot force someone to accept the gospel. Once you have done your best and the person has understood what the gospel is all about and still rejects it, then you are free from that person’s blood. You can invite a colleague to church. You can hand a waiter a handbill. You can talk to your mechanic. You can ensure that all your family that benefits from your resources are compelled to be in church. Everyone under your roof must be made to appear in church. All these efforts is to give them the opportunity to hear the gospel and make a decision for their eternity.
Have you lived with a misplaced priority? Have you focused on your job to the detriment of the gospel? Have you been ashamed of sharing the gospel with your business partners? It is foolishness to be shameful of what is gainful. The most important thing on earth is the soul of man. If you are too ashamed to help someone escape the horrors of eternity without God, then you are the most foolish person around. You are callous and if it is not too make to say even wicked. A believer that is not committed to sharing the gospel to his/her world is beyond words despicable. If you understand that everyone without Christ is heading to an eternity in flames of hell and you do nothing, you are beyond words wicked. Please understand today that preaching the gospel is your primary assignment here on earth and it holds the key to how much divine intervention and manifestation you can experience in your own life. Selah!
REMEMBER: Preaching the gospel with your lifestyle and words is your first and most important task on earth.
CONFESSION: I am an ambassador of Christ on earth dispensing eternal verities to the peoples of the world. I do not fail. I am the light bearer both in the way I live and in the words that I speak. Christ is seen in me and through me. Hallelujah!
PROPHETIC RELEASE: I decree that the channels of your spirit open up to your primary assignment to the gospel in the name of Christ Jesus Amen!
