PRAISE GOD FOR HE IS WORTHY TO BE PRAISED;
BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST JESUS. WHY DO YOU WANT OR WHY DO YOU GO OUT TO THE STREETS, PARKS , HIGHWAYS AND BI WAYS? IS IT JUST TO BE SEEN OF MAN? OR IS IT BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE LOVE OF CHRIST JESUS AND THE PASSION FOR HIS LOST CHILDREN. MANY TIMES CHURCH PEOPLE GO FOR ALL THE WRONG REASONS. AND THEY DON'T PRAY,FAST OR EVEN READ THERE WORD TO PREPARE TO BE READY TO FACE THE WORLD AND THE DEVIL AND HIS WAYS. THIS IS NOT A GAME THERE SOULS THAT ARE LOST AND DIEING AND GOING TO HELL OUT THERE ON THE STREETS.THINK ABOUT IF IT WAS YOU AND SOME ONE WITH OUT THE POWER OF GOD AND THE WORD IN THERE HEARTS WAS TRYING TO TELL YOU ABOUT JESUS CHRIST AND HIS WAYS AND SAVING BLOOD? YOU MUST HAVE THE LOVE OF CHRIST AND KNOW AND HAVE AND BE READY TO ANSWER THE QUESTIONS THAT WILL COME.THE WORD SAYS TO STUDY TO SHOW THY SELF APPROVED.AND KNOW THIS YOU WILL BE TESTED WHEN YOU GO OUT TO BATTLE THE WORLD AND THE DEVIL AND HIS WAYS. SO PRAY AND SEEK GOD ANDHE WILL DIRECT YOUR PATHS AND . REMEMEBER THAT NO ONE COMES TO THE SAVING KNOWLEDGE OF CHRIST JESUS UNLESS THE HOLY SPIRIT DRAWS THEM.STAY THE COURSE AND KEEP YOU EYES ON JESUS CHRIST AND WHY YOUR THERE. ITS NOT ABOUT YOU ITS ABOUT THE CALL GOD HAS ON YOUR LIFE AND THE LOST.

You are right - we see it all the time - a church group goes down to feed the poor with the motive of - as the homeless would say "To get there good for the day on" and not with the burning love and passion and fire of God a flame in there hearts. This does more harm then good and hardens many against "church people". We need to go out and reach lost out of a passion that burns inside of us birth by the Holy Spirit of the living God!


Going out on the streets to reach the lost is a serious matter and must be taken seriously - the eternity of souls that Jesus died for hangs in the balance.


We can't convict or save anyone - that is the job of the Holy Spirit - that is why we must always be Spirit led when out on the streets.


AMEN!
