Be a Witness

Always remember, God wants you to talk to people about Jesus, but depend on the Holy Spirit to convince them. Without the Holy Spirit, no one will come to Jesus. The Holy Spirit is working in peoples lives today. "The Holy Spirit also witnesses to us" (Hebrews 10:15).

Recognize your inability to change peoples lives. Tell them about Jesus, and share what he has done in your life. Having done all that you can, only the Holy Spirit can reveal Christ in their hearts. He convinces people to believe in Jesus Christ today. "For our gospel did not come in word only, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit, and in much assurance" (1 Thessalonians 1:5).

Pray the Word: Father, use me as a witness for Christ to my family and friends. May the Holy Spirit work through me and in those who need Christ. Give me opportunities to share my faith in Christ. Amen.

Do the Word: Be sensitive to the Holy Spirit giving you opportunities to share your faith in Christ. God will bring people to you who need Christ. Depend upon the Holy Spirit to change them, through the gospel of Christ.
