Do Share

Reading from Jan. 27, 09
Exodus 17 - 20; Acts 3

TOPIC: Evangelism

SCRIPTURE: "Peter saw his opportunity and addressed the crowd,..." (Acts 3:12)

OBSERVATION: Peter had an audience, and he capitalized on the opportunity to share Jesus Christ. he clearly presented his message by telling (1) who Jesus is, (2) how the Jews had rejected him, (3) why their rejection was fatal, and (4) what they needed to do to change the situation. Peter told the crowd that they still had a choice; God still offered them the opportunity to believe and receive Jesus as their Messiah and as their Lord. Displays of God's mercy and grace, such as the healing of this lame man, often create teachable moments. Pray to have courage like Peter to see these opportunities and to use them to speak up for Christ.
[Life Application Study Bible]

APPLICATION: Are you busy ? Everybody seems to be, but are you to busy to see an opportunity right before your very eyes? In case you have forgotten you pass by souls destined for eternity every single day.

People are still dying everyday without a personal relationship with Jesus

Whose the last person you shared Jesus with?

If it has been awhile ask the Lord to bring someone into your path

Remember

If you ask the Lord and mean it then get ready because He will give you an opportunity.


I look forward to hearing about your dialogue

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, help me not to get so busy that I miss an opportunity to be Jesus to someone!!!
