How to Share the Gospel

• PRAY FOR THE HOLY SPIRIT’S GUIDANCE
  Before you even meet with someone who needs to hear the Gospel, pray that God ordains that meeting for you and gives you the words that will soften their heart towards Him. Remember, you’re not in charge of their conversion, the Spirit is, so be open to the possibility of rejection. (Matthew 10:13-14)
• LEARN THEIR STORY
  Everyone has a story and wants to be heard. As Jesus did with the woman at the well (John 4:1-42), we can get to know someone, showing them that God also listens to their hearts, giving them a glimpse of what God’s economy looks like versus the world’s.
• SHARE YOUR STORY
  Our stories are powerful because they show how God has already transformed a human heart and how it can be done again. Some people have lost hope, so we have the opportunity to be their hope. As it says in Revelation 12:11, we defeat evil by standing firm in the faith and sharing our stories.
• THE ROMANS ROAD TO SALVATION
  Sharing Scripture is the best way to provide evidence for the Good News of Jesus. The following are verses referred to as the “The Romans Road” that break down what Jesus has done for us sinners: Romans 3:23, Romans 3:10- 18, Romans 6:23, Romans 5:8, Romans 10:9, Romans 10:13, Romans 5:1, Romans 8:1, Romans 8:38-39.
• PRAY FOR THEM
  We don’t end with verbally sharing the Gospel. We continue this process by praying for the person we shared it with. Satan will do whatever he can to snatch away any seed of belief in a person’s heart (Matthew 18-23), so praying for God’s protection over that person is vital to their future relationship with Jesus.

I pray these words have blessed you and will continue to pray as you seek the one, true King, our Messiah, Lord Jesus Christ.
