Making a Difference

Jude 1:22-23; 1 Cor. 9:19-23

Crave for evangelism, soul-winning and intercession for the unsaved in the heart of each believer is a signal, a measure and a pointer to the content and genuineness of mercy the believer possesses and professes to have. The heart of mercy should drive every genuine believer into the act of intercession on bended kneels for the lost. We must rescue others by snatching them from the flames of judgment. There are still many to whom we need to show mercy with every sense of urgency (Jude 23). There is a very great opportunity to make a difference in these difficult times by our compassion for the unsaved. Mercy on the lost driven out of compassion made the Apostle Paul to state that “I am made all things to all men”. This should drive every believer too to seek the salvation of some by any possible godly means.

POINT OF EMPHASIS: Intercession for the lost is an act of mercy.

PRAYER POINT: In the name of Jesus, I receive a fresh burden to reach out to the

unsaved.
