THE HEART
OF THE SOULWINNERS IS THE VERY HEART OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST
(
Romans 10: 1 ) 1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for
Israel is, that they might be saved.
INTRODUCTION:
a. Paul expressed the very heart of the Lord Jesus Christ
for his concern for the salvation of his fellow Israelites. That is his prayer
and desire that they might be saved.
b. Christ also showed the same concern for all lost
sinners
(
Matthew 9:36-38 ) 36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with
compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep
having no shepherd.
37 Then saith
he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are
few;
38 Pray ye
therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his
harvest.
* Christ commanded His disciples to pray for soulwinners
to go to the multitudes of lost people and win to Christ.
1. CHRIST WANT HIS CHURCH TO HAVE A
HEART FOR THE LOST SINNERS.
(
John 4:35 ) 35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then
cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the
fields; for they are white already to harvest.
a. Christ commanded the disciples to look on the field
for the are white or ready to harvest.
b. Christians are always concern for earthly things and
not for heavenly things.
(
Colossians 3:1-2 ) 1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things
which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
2 Set your
affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
c. Christ want for Christian to always give value on the
precious souls of lost people.
(
Mark 8:36 ) 36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain
the whole world, and lose his own soul?
2. CHRIST WANT TO MAKE PARTNER WITH
HIS DISCIPLES TO WIN MORE LOST PEOPLE.
(
John 15:16 ) 16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and
ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit
should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may
give it you.
a. Christ chose and ordained every individual Christian
inside the local to be His co-labourers in God's vineyard.
(
1 Corinthians 3: 8-9 ) 8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one:
and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.
9 For we
are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.
b. Christ treat us not servant but His best friends He
said.
(
John 15: 15 ) 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command
you.
15
Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord
doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my
Father I have made known unto you.
3. CHRIST WANT HIS DISCIPLE COPY HIS
STRATEGY TO BE A SEEVANTHOOD SPIRIT IN EFFECTIVE WINNING LOST PERSON.
(
I Corithians 9:19-22 ) 19 For though I be free from all men, yet have I
made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.
20 And
unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are
under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;
21 To them
that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under
the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.
22 To the
weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all
men, that I might by all means save some.
4. CHRIST ALWAYS MOVE HIS HEART TO
LOST PEOPLE ARE STILL NOT SAVED
(
Mathew 9:35-36 ) 35 And Jesus went about all the cities and villages,
teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and
healing every sickness and every disease among the people.
36 But
when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they
fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.
* Christian we need to have a heart like Jesus for loving
and crying for many lost souls to be saved.
(
Romans 10:1 ) 1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for
Israel is, that they might be saved.
(
Psalms 126:5-6 ) 5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
6 He that
goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with
rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
5. CHRIST STILL PRAYING FOR MORE
CHRISTIANS TO GIVE THEIR LIFE TO HIM TO BE FAITHFUL AND FRUITFUL SOULWINNERS.
(
Luke 10:1-3 ) 1 After these things the LORD appointed other
seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and
place, whither he himself would come.
2
Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are
few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth
labourers into his harvest.
3 Go your
ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.
6. CHRIST ENCOURAGE THE CHURCH LOOK
THE FIELD FOR THEY ARE WHITE ALREADY TO HARVEST.
(
John 4:35 ) Say not ye, There are yet four months, and [then] cometh
harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for
they are white already to harvest.
(John
9:4-5) I must work the works of him that sent me, while it
is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
Jn 9:5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
