One of the most compelling reasons we have for witnessing to others is the debt we owe to Jesus for our own salvation. How do you pay the debt that you owe to Jesus? Tell someone about Him and what He’s done for you.
In the process of winning lost people for Christ, there are believers who sow and there are those who reap. In other words, there are those who plant the seed of faith and others who pray with that person and who are there when he or she actually comes to Christ. Sowers and reapers are equally important in the process, so they will receive the same reward in heaven. Learn more on today’s Treasured Truth.
Just as so many people were waiting to be healed at the Pool of Bathesda, too many of us are hanging out at the pools of life where there are no answers! We’re hanging out at the pool of materialism, the pool of our careers and our jobs, the pool of our family. We’re hanging out looking for answers in something that will never satisfy, instead of looking to Jesus for our answers and healing.
Today on Treasured Truth, Pastor Ford reminds us that despite our failings, we can end up better than we started out. We can never go too low to escape God’s grace. The most important thing is for us to seek to know God and Him alone. He will help us do what He’s designed for us to do.
Pastor Ford explains that no matter how far you’ve fallen and no matter how much drama you’ve been through, God is faithful. He’ll help you do what He has planned for you and ultimately, you’re going to end up better than you were when you started.
Pastor James Ford Jr. has been the senior pastor of Christ Bible Church of Chicago, located on the south side of Chicago, Ill., for over 35 years. He also serves as the president of Impact Ministries, an outreach ministry committed to strengthening families in the South Shore community of Chicago.
