Inspiration: I had just sat down at my friend’s dinner table when two drunks pulled up in the driveway. They knocked on the door and asked to use the restroom. We saw this as a opportunity to witness to them so my friend took one of them outside to share Jesus with him and I took the other into the kitchen. As I prayed with the one in the kitchen, God sobered him up and he started to cry. I led him in prayer to ask Jesus into his life. We got their phone number to follow up with them and I was able to take one of them to church. We praised God to hear that that the other man had given up drinking after that very night.

Inspiration: This is a great scripture for those who think that they can earn their way into heaven by their good works. Today’s society is so performance orientated that people assume that this is God’s way also. One lady had been heading up organizations in her church for decades and thought she could earn entrance into heaven by all her church work. After she saw that she had to respond to Jesus Christ by faith, she came into a new personal relationship with Jesus committing her life totally to Him.

Inspiration: Perception is reality for most people. Some see only the negative side of life. Their glass is half empty while another’s glass is half full. Negative people often are prejudiced against everyone in every situation. I was in a business meeting where everyone heard an inspired message but this negative person did not hear or see anything hopeful at all. It is these people that especially need the light of Jesus Christ to change their vision and let them see things clearly, the way God sees them.

Inspiration: One Bible teacher was speaking on the subject of why mankind is such a unique creation compared to the rest of the animals God created. Not only was mankind created in God’s image, but God gave us the ability to reason and to choose, even the ability to reject the one who created us. That is why mankind must make the choice on their eternal destination.

Inspiration: I grew up going to church each week but did not know much about the Holy Spirit and had no clue what the word anointing meant. As I started to study the Bible I learned that the Holy Spirit is a person, not an it, and is sent by Jesus to be the power source on earth. Now, I realize that those churches who regularly have healing services where people get healed, operate under the power and anointing of the Holy Spirit and have church leaders that listen and obey the Holy Spirit’s directions.

Inspiration: I have noticed that very few people can tell you what the sermon was all about, one day or one week after it is given. Even prophecies that are given in church are forgotten by people the moment they leave the church. The wise people I see are the ones that takes notes and discuss the sermon at meal times. This helps them remember the Word of God which was spoken.

Inspiration: A truck driver had a rough upbringing as his father said to him “You’ll never amount to anything!” This produced unforgiveness which tormented this truck driver causing him to drink heavily.

He got on his knees and asked Jesus to save him. He has become an on-fire Christian and has forgiven his father.

He went down to the local bar and ordered a drink and even that tasted bad. The family kept praying and three months later, this husband got on his knees and gave his life to Christ.

Inspiration: The president of a Bible College said that the best sermon you will ever preach is just to tell people how Jesus saved you. I practiced writing out my own story of how I became a Christian and how Jesus changed my life. I memorized a five minute version of my story to share with some people who are interested and a 30 second version of my story for the person who shows little interest. I learned that sharing Jesus becomes easier the more you do it.

Inspiration: Statistics from the churches show that over 95% of the average congregation have never led one person to Jesus. This is because they have never been trained how to share their faith and overcome their fears. I am overjoyed to see more and more Christian literature that teaches people how to receive Jesus into their hearts. Those who are too nervous to share their faith with others can give the lost person some Christian literature to read and invite these people to church.
