Win souls or edify yourself

Win souls or edify yourself.
“Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy. For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks mysteries. But he who prophesies speaks edification and exhortation and comfort to men. He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church.”   (I Corinthians   14:1-4)  

Dear all,
We have seen in most of those who have been baptized in the Holy Spirit a great concern to speak in tongue, which is of course, is very important because you are edifying your spiritual life and glorifying God. But, how many people are you helping when you speak in tongue? None, but yourself only.
Paul stated clearly that he who prophecies exhorts the church. Prophecy is to talk, preach, teach, evangelize, correct and above all is to lead people to salvation. This proves that he who is baptized in the Holy Spirit  first priority to save souls and help others, instead of thinking about edifying his own life. This is the main characteristic of a person baptized in the Holy Spirit. To win souls!

Faith vs Doubt

Faith vs Doubt   Now Jericho was securely shut up because of the children of Israel; none went out, and none came in. And the Lord said to Joshua: “See! I have given Jericho into your hand, its king, and the mighty men of valor. (Joshua 6. 1-2)

   Knowing the fame and faith of Joshua and the Children of Israel, seeing their victories God had already given to them, satan sent someone to spread doubts among the people of God that the City of Jericho was securely shut up. In other words, it is impossible to enter that place.

  God prepared Joshua to resist and to overcome any obstacle, when He spoke to him saying, ‘Be strong and of good courage’…  Satan knows that the only weapon that can neutralize our faith is doubt, but it’s up to us to accept it or to rebuke it right away.

  God has already given to us whatever we need to live an abundant, comfortable and quality life. For you to take possession of this blessing, first you have to break the walls of doubts and fears that were built in your mind.  

 What are you going to do? Break the walls or allow the walls to break you?

Lord of himself

And they said to me, “The survivors who are left from the captivity in the province are there in great distress and reproach. The wall of Jerusalem is also broken down, and its gates are burned with fire. Nehemiah 1.3

The walls of Jerusalem had a very important function: guarantee the protection of the city. Without them, Jerusalem was at the mercy of the enemy.

The walls represent our faith, because it protects our lives. This is why the devil always tries to destroy it. When we allow our faith to be shaken by adversity and evil’s attacks, we become weak and enslaved by the problem.

Unfortunately, many are fallen because their faith is in ruins. It begins to happen slowly. First, one stone becomes loose, then a gap appears, and shortly after, it turns into a hole. Sins enter stealthily, like pride, indiscipline, immorality, rebellion, among others. They carve large holes in your wall, and little by little, your spiritual life will fall apart.

Due to a lack of remaining vigilant when it comes to safeguarding your faith, the will of the flesh prevails and the devil has access to your life.

Then I said to them, “You see the distress that we are in, how Jerusalem lies waste, and its gates are burned with fire. Come and let us build the wall of Jerusalem, that we may no longer be a reproach”. Nehemiah 2.17

Keep in mind that the devil will always use people and situations to take you down, because his greatest desire is to destroy your life. You may even be known as a good Christian, but, deep down, you know that your faith is shaken, just like the walls of Jerusalem.

The first step to revert this situation is to restore the wall, this is, your faith, which will protect your Salvation. Self-assess your life and see what has opened holes in your wall and start to rebuild it.

So I answered them, and said to them, “The God of heaven Himself will prosper us; therefore we His servants will arise and build, but you have no heritage or right or memorial in Jerusalem.” Nehemiah 2.20

Put God in charge of your life and take care of your faith, because all of your life depends on it. By faith you are justified before God, achieve a blessed life and your Salvation. Therefore, do not become discouraged. Seek to renew your faith every day, rejecting everything that might weaken it.
I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 2 Timothy 4.7

Winning souls

The essence of all the work that we do are for souls. And for  those who have passion to win souls, there is no better place to be in the work of God than as an assistant.

Every assistant should be aware that all their work, their commitment to the work of God, must be focused on winning souls. For it is not dedicated for this purpose we will have no used for the Kingdom of God. The purpose of us being saved was for us to save others.

Of course, your biggest concern and you should pay close attention to your own salvation. Only after that can you put all of your strength in the salvation of those who are lost, and warn those who are  standing supposedly in faith, and think they are  standing on the risk of falling spiritually, if they don’t watch over.

What is the salary of a soul winner? What makes a happy soul winner? What pleasure a soul winner has? The answer is simple: to see a person who comes to God totally destroyed, failure, hopeless, broken, rejected, by all and for all and to contemplate its regeneration. This is the wages and the greatest joy of a soul winner.

For this reason, we are promoting August 28 as the first day of the consecration of souls. It will be a day dedicated to those suffered. A day when all the assistant will lead the church to be consecrated souls.

Once the meeting is over, they will visit the nursing homes, hospitals, orphanages, prisoners, and people that are away from God's ways. That day will be the first of many, because every moth we will be separating  the last sunday of the month to accomplish the consecration of souls.

Obedience

Obedience

     When we talk about Obedience, we speak of Abraham, the father of faith, the example of obedience.

“And I will make your descendants multiply as the stars of heaven; I will give to your descendants all these lands; and in your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed; because Abraham obeyed My voice and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My laws.””
‭‭Genesis‬ ‭26:4-5‬ ‭‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬

     Many assistants have asked to God, many have complained with their  pastors why their lives are not blessed as they would like it to be. They do not see the promises written in the Word of God materialized in their lives. The answer lies in the absence of this quality, which by the way was abundant in the life of Abraham; Obedience.

     This is what it means to be a servant. He was always ready to serve. He could not even agree, do not understand why so much was demand from God, but his obedience was a matter of honor. It doesn't matter if his feelings are hurt, if his knowledge had to be relevant, what matters was to obey.

     To be in the Sanctuary of the church to cast out demons from people, giving out  envelopes for a purpose, cleaning the bathrooms of the church, greeting the people at the door, waiting for everyone to leave the church for you to leave after that. To going to the assistant's meeting, separating moments to evangelization, meditating on God's Word every day, do fasting regularly, following guidance related to moments that God has our participation are some of the things that the man and woman of God, servants of the  Almighty God have to offer, to characterize their obedience.
