The source of our power behind a burdened heart in Evangelism





I have once written an article in the past about the tools we need in becoming better evangelists, especially when it comes to personal evangelism. One of the key point we pointed out was ‘HAVING A BURDENED HEART FOR OTHERS’.  Having a burdened heart means, feeling the need for others to know and learn about Christ as we do. We burn with a desire for to know Christ and be saved as we have been saved in Christ Jesus.



Today I just want us to simply look at the power behind a burdened heart,



The power behind a burdened heart to share the message is Jesus. Jesus Himself felt the burden of others to come to the Kingdom of God. If we truly know Christ, we are to reflect Him, and one way to do that is to feel the needs of others as He deed. We ought to show compassion to others as He did. We are to feel the need for them to Know Christ, as Jesus felt the need for us to know about eternal life in God’s kingdom. He felt the need for us to be reconciled back to God, that’s why He came to die for us; therefore we should also have burdened hearts because Jesus had a burdened heart for us.



We are to have burdened hearts for others, because Jesus had a burdened heart for us. If Christ had a burdened heart for us to be saved, we should also feel the same for others. Jesus cared about people, He desired for them to come to Him and know where they could find true peace.



Luke 19: 41-42 ‘’When He approached Jerusalem, He saw the city and wept over it, saying, "If you had known in this day, even you, the things which make for peace! But now they have been hidden from your eyes.’’



When it comes to evangelism, Jesus should be the source of our power in burdened hearts. We should have a burdened heart, because Christ who we reflect had a burdened heart for the lost sheep. We are to have burdened heart for others because of what Jesus has done for us. Christ should be our living example to why we should have burdened heart. Jesus made himself reachable, available, and approachable. He continues to be the same today. We are to be like Him, and He should be the source of power behind our burdened hearts for others to receive salvation through His name. We are to have burdened hearts for others to be saved Jesus had a burdened heart for us, to why he came to die for you and me so that we could have eternal life with God.



Because of His love, I am a secured Package

Should Your Religion Be Based On Your Feelings? Here is the answer..

Should a person decide what to believe based on his or her feelings or something that does not change with moods and circumstances? Big question! Imagine Jesus of Nazareth nailed up on the cross, dying for our sins. Suppose He said, “This is not fun. I am not feeling anything good up here. Let me off this cross. I expected good feelings, not this! Pain is not where it is at for Me. My commitment to die to pay the penalty for man’s sin is far beyond what I am feeling right now.” How would you have counseled Jesus when the bad pain hit Him? Feelings based religion is shaky. Commitments based on good feelings are subject to change any day. This unbiblical approach would make all our commitments very tentative, unpredictable, shaky. This includes: marriage, family, job and friends. A marriage vow would only mean, “I’ll stay with you as long as my good feelings last. I expect only good times, no bad ones.” Jesus did not bail out when the going got tough. Some beliefs a Christian should also...

The second necessary step in designing a successful nonprofit strategy is knowing your beneficiaries

Last week I started a series of blog posts on building a strong and successful strategy for your nonprofit and I started with mentioning the first necessary step you will need to examine before kicking off with your strategy. If you haven’t read that post, I recommend that you visit the article HERE before continuing with this one. Having familiarity with the first article will help you understand this one even much better. This week we are looking at the second step to take when designing your nonprofit strategy, and that step in designing and building a strong and successful strategy for your nonprofit is clearly knowing, stating, and understanding who your beneficiaries are. Some organizations talk about beneficiaries, others refer to participants, others to clients, service users or partners. Here we will refer to beneficiaries as the people whom your nonprofit seeks to benefit. The reason why many nonprofit strategies fail is because too often nonprofits and funders ignore the con...

Being set free by the master who holds the keys to life

After Jesus died on the cross He went down to hell, crushed the devil, and took the keys of life. The devil held us prisoners to fear of death, but now we are given the chance to enjoy eternal life with God the father. The greatest gift the human race can ever earn. It’s all free of charge to be set free, for the master has promised to do this free of charge to all those who desire to be free. If you have not yet accepted Christ, then you are still in a prison cell and you need to be freed from this. The only way that can happen is if you humble yourself and come to the master who has the keys to set you free. If you are in the devils prison, you can’t save yourself, not matter how good you think you are in escaping. You will never be able to escape until you let the master who took the keys set you free. You will try million ways and times, but I assure you, you will never succeed on your own. Many of you may say ‘well I am free’, I can assure you that you are only free in the flesh; ...
