How Can We Be Burdened To Win Souls 9/5/10 AM
Solomon Raju of India at Bethel BC
II Kings 7:9
Famine during seige.
Chpt. 6 - two ladies - cannibals
The lepers story.
We were dead in sin.
Rescued by God.
But then we get selfish.
How can be be burdened to share the message?
1. Reckon That There Is a Great Need
Ill. - Guy throwing starfish back into ocean. He was asked what difference all his effort would make. He responded, "Made a difference for that one."
USA from 50 percent to 5 percent in church attendance.
See them as SOULS!
.
2. Realize This Is Not The Time For Selfishness
We get too busy for souls.
B.U.S.Y. = Buried Under Satan's Yolk
Devil's conference - give them everything, and they'll be too busy for God.
3. React without Giving Excuses.
Lepers had many "good" excuses. Banned from city. We've been mistreated. Health problem.
God never asks for ability, but for availability.
Elijah made excuses, and God took them! Used Elisha instead.
4. Responding in a Team Spirit
Ex. 17:8-12
Moses couldn't see victory without Aaron & Hur.
