Greetings!
Good News! Since the last time I wrote I’m pleased to announce that I’ve had four more people pray with me on the streets for salvation! Praise God! In fact this past weekend I had something happen that I never had happen before. I had a father and a son both pray with me at the same time for salvation! That was really pretty neat and had me all excited!
I have to confess that I’m not a real strong prayer warrior. I don’t know why but I consider prayer my weakness in my Christian life. This past week was no different for me in my prayer life. I realized while I was heading out to witness that I wasn’t “prayed up”. So while driving across town I was praying “Lord, I’m sorry I haven’t been praying like I should but would you please bring me divine appointments?”
I’ve come to realize that God wants nothing more then for someone to come to the saving grace of his son Jesus Christ. Angels rejoice in Heaven when someone gets saved! Therefore I also know now that the Lord is quick to answer prayer when you’re praying fo the lost to come in especially when you’re praying for you to be the one bringing in the harvest so to speak.
It was kind of interesting how the father and the son came to pray with me for salvation. I went to Old Town first Saturday evening but I was getting no where there so I headed over to the Keeper of the Plains for the fire pits lighting. Sure enough there was a good crowd there. The first two people I witnessed with were both very saved Christians. As I was finishing with the second person I prayed under my breath real quick “Lord I need a divine appointment!”
The next thing I did was to turn around and as I was turning around another gentleman was turning around right in front of me. I looked at him and said cheerfully “Hi!” which he returned right back. I told him I was working on a project where I interview people and asked him if I could interview him and he agreed. I started taking him through the Way of the Master method and it didn’t take very long for the Dad to confess he was headed to hell and that really bother him.
At this point I shared with him and his son what it takes to go to Heaven, then both of them agreed to pray with me to accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior! We prayed together and when we got done things were winding down at the Keeper of the Plains so we talked more and I made sure he understood what just happened and he did. As a side note there’s not a much better feeling here on earth then leading someone to Christ! Give it a try, you might just like it too!!!
