TRUTH, AND PEOPLE WHO REFECT IT

TRUTH, AND PEOPLE WHO REFECT IT TODAY'S SCRIPTURE: “Then Jesus, moved with compassion, stretched out His hand and touched him, and said to him, ‘I am willing; be cleansed’” (Mark 1:41). DAILY FIRE! Father, teach me Your love for the lost. Evangelism is not a matter of simply mouthing words of God’s pitying love, or spelling out theology. An evangelist’s heart should beat in tune with the heartbeat of God, expressive of His heart’s longings and compassion.  The need in evangelism is twofold: the truth, and the people who reflect it. Some people say that preaching the right thing is enough. It is not! The Holy Spirit has a part in this, placing the missing ingredient in our own hearts:  “The love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us” (Romans 5:5).  The love of God in Christ is more than a piece of systematic theology, and it is meant to come alive in those who declare it.  We can preach with tongues of fire only when we have His fire in our hearts! How do you get those fires burning? Get to know the Word of God for yourself.  It is God’s Word to you and for you! Taken from Daily Fire Devotional: 365 Days in God’s Word by Reinhard Bonnke.
