When the Lord asks us to do something, our first reaction could be, the task is too humongous for us.
And our hearts are filled with excitement because it is a very pleasant task.
So like Mary, we say “Amen” .
Some 3 years ago, the Lord put the desire in my heart to invite 50 people to an evangelistic rally. My mind began to rationalise. Who would take care of them? Where do I find these 50? Will they have bad experience knowing that the place is not so elderly friendly. I know in my heart that He wants to invite the elderly folks.
I observed the place and the event that year. I invited no one, the first year (2007).
The following year, I received a telephone call from a pastor from another church. The Holy Spirit within me told me “Ask him to invite”.
At that time, I invited 30. This is the figure and the amount that I am willing to part with at that time. And praise Jesus, two precious ones came to know the Lord. The stadium seats about 6,000 and about 98 people came to know The Lord last year.
This year, as some indicated that they would also like to contribute, I invited 45 (the contact person told me the bus could accommodate 45). And we saw 7 salvations! Look what the Lord has done!
Our hearts rejoice seeing so many souls saved.
All glory and praise be unto the Lord.
Humanly speaking, the task seems too huge. But if we say “yes” to the Lord, He just makes all things come together and we His partners just watch Him work.
