HE WHO WINS SOULS IS WISE!

God’s word in Proverbs 11:30 (NKJV) declares, “The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and he who wins souls is wise.”  Are you the righteous?  You are if you have made Jesus Christ your Savior and Lord.  “For He (God) made Him (Jesus) who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him (Christ Jesus)” (2 Corinthians 5:21).  So, are you the righteous?  If you are the righteous, there should be fruit in your life.  22 “…The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.”  This fruit should be in our lives.  There is no law that can prosper against us when we are full of God’s fruit because He shows up to defend us (Daniel 3:19-25).  This fruit can change lives. This fruit invites God into our circumstances.  This fruit causes the righteous to be a tree of life.  WHY?  Because we have a command to carry out God’s and Christ Jesus’ mandate to save souls which leads to eternal life (John 17:3). “For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved” (John 3:17).  Jesus said to His disciples, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.  He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned” (Mark 16:15-16).  God has given us the fruit that is necessary to win souls.  “…HE WHO WINS SOULS IS WISE!”  Are you winning souls?  He who wins souls is wise!  Are you wise?  He who wins souls is wise!!!

Would you like to be saved and develop a relationship with God as your Heavenly Father?  If you would really like to know God, invite His Son, Jesus Christ, into your heart.  Please pray this prayer:  Dear God, please forgive me of my sins.  I believe in my heart that Jesus Christ is Your Son.  I believe that He died on the cross, shed His blood, and rose from the grave for my salvation.  I confess Jesus right now as my Savior and Lord.  God fill me with your Holy Spirit so that I can live a life that pleases You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen!  If you prayed this prayer and meant it, based on Roman 10:9-10, you are saved.  Welcome into God’s Family!
