#pull them out

If you are afraid to speak to strangers about the Lord, here are some ways I have used to get the message across. I know how scary it is to approach someone you have never met, but we still need to get the message out by all means necessary. We are his witnesses, and we are called to give a firsthand account of what we experienced. We can do it one of two ways, either give a statement orally or in writing, it must eventually be put into a written document and that is where the Christian literature called “tracts” comes into play.

Acts1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

Matthew 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Our job is to witness to them orally or we could hand them tracts. It is that simply if you feel like engaging them that also fine. This is by no means the only way to get the word out, just unconventional ways that I have used over the years:

On the street, I have handed it to them without saying a word! Leave in Restroom stall On the Plane At any Airport Phone booth Car Wind Shied Wipes Car windows Mailed to random addresses Drop at any home (not in the mailbox) but on a stoop or a flat surface A Supermarket A Store Drop at a Mc Donald restaurant Applebee’s restaurant At a concert in Germany At a McDonald in Germany Community Billboard Standing inside/outside the Subway Station On a Bus On the Train Knock on doors and give it to a neighbor Walking and offering a tract Walking and offering prayers leave on a bench in a park leave on a bench in a cathedral church Praying in a cathedral church To the homeless on the street To all nations, kindreds, people, and tongues I came across. I pray with childlike faith and ask the Lord for the spirit of boldness before I approach them. I pray over every tract I put out and ask the Lord to transfer the words into their hearts.

Social media is good platform, but don’t be fooled. It can never take the place of personal connections. It’s a good tool to reach the masses but we need our own personal revival of our spirit so that we can influence our home, our children, our family, our community then ultimately the world with the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. https://youtu.be/VHY8GOFEv
