Theme: Save a Soul
Text: James 5:19-20

19 Brethren, if anyone among you wanders from the truth, and someone turns him back, 20 let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins.

Our core mandate is to propagate the Gospel of Jesus Christ. In so doing, some brethren that wander from the truth, will be drawn back as well as those who haven't experienced Christ yet.

It may be as a result of pride, misunderstanding, pains, affliction, amongst other things that some wander from the truth. It is our responsibility to bring such people back on track. Identify some backsliders this weekend and reach out to them. Intercede on their behalf.

Do not desire to be saved alone, reach out to those not conforming to the will of God. The instruction is go into the world and make disciples of all nations ( Matthew 28:18-20, Acts 1:8).

Prayer: Dear Father, as I go about my duties, help me to see every opportunity to proclaim Christ to souls around. Strengthen me to do this excellently that when You beckon me home, I'll have souls to present before You. AMEN!

Let us be informed that Christ's second return is for judgment.  √ Apollos was instructed in the way of Christ by Priscilla and Aquila, two faithful couples in Christ. After one of his public teachings, he was called aside by the couple who explained the scripture to him. His submissiveness to adhere to...

Do you feel you're forgotten, rejected or insecure? Dear beloved in the Lord, you're not forgotten, for God has engraved your name in His palms. Isaiah 49:16 See, "I have engraved you on the Palms of My Hands: Your walls are ever before Me". If God has engraved your name in His palms, it means He always sees or watches over you. Rise up and shake the fear and doubts off.  Declare, "I am not forgotten or alone. The LORD has engraved me in His Palms. Therefore, His eyes are fixed on me, and He protects me from the wicked. I decree all that I have is secured in the Name of Jesus Christ. AMEN!
