CHOSEN TO BE HIS WITNESS
19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
(Matthew 28:19 - 20)
As a Christian, and a child of God the world is saved because of you, do you know these? You were specifically chosen by God to be a witness, and tell people about his saving power, gospel and love. The Apostle Paul, understanding this, declared,
“...necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel”(1 Corinthians 9:16).
Nothing is more important and honouring as being a witness of Christ. witnessing to others about Jesus should be your passion,

“… it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. And ye are witnesses of these things” (Luke 24:46-48).
How can you be quite when you haven't told everyone else and give towards the furtherance of the Gospel. Carry the Gospel of Christ and be proud of it, be part of the expansion of the kingdom of God.
Preach the Gospel of God irrespective of where you are the hospital, prison, school, village, or where so ever. Tell the untold and reach for the unreached, the Gospel of God is true and real, it's the power of God to those who believe, according to apostle Paul in 2 Corinthians 5: 13-15
“For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for your cause. For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.”

PRAYERS
Mark 16:15 -18
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
The responsibility to preach the word of God is on me, I'm sensitive to the leading of the spirit to minister the Gospel to the weary and bring healing and health to the sick, in Jesus name amen

God has chosen us to be his witness in this world, so as to preach his word to all nation, just as Jesus commanded his disciples shortly before he left earth.
He has given us a mandate to preach his word and bring sinners into his kingdom.
This is a great awareness to believers and to #steemchurch as well.
There is always a blessing for those tgat are the representatives if christ on earth,for said if you deny me on earth i will do also in heaven ,if we fail to be Gods withness to people on earth then God will also fail to be our own witness in heaven,it is of great importance that we be witness to him on earth for there is greater rewards for that in heaven.
It one thing to be Jesus witness is another thing to do according to what you have witness from jesus.. possessing Christlike nature.....
We should always be witness to our fathers glory and never for once feel shy to say what he has done for us. Let us testify to his works in our lives and understand he will always bless testifiers more.
Today i pray and hope to be granted the opportunity to be a witness of the most high God
Jesus promised his apostles of his holly spirit , this is to show how important he is in him ur lives.
The truth is that no matter where you find your self always be ready to represent him in truth and in spirit.
When you decide to accept christ in your life , you are ready to give him everything you have including your ultimate soul and time.
When you have him in you life he will always make you the good example of Gody child.
Do you know that those who do whatever God wanted never lacks any thing.
Brethren be ready to take up whatever God has directed you to do wheatherti your advantage or to your disadvantage. He will always stand for you in what ever you do.
We are to be Jesus witnesses always......
Thanks for sharing
How then could we be quiet? We have to tell somebody else, and we also have to give towards the furtherance of the Gospel. We must a sponsor of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and be proud of it. Thanks
