LESSON INTRODUCTION: Soul winning is the act of preaching to people with the aim that they are converted into the kingdom of God. Discipleship is the strategic process of training and building people up firmly in God’s word after they have been converted into the kingdom of God.

You are a child of God today because someone preached to you, prayed for you and to the glory of God today you are in the family of God. Therefore, it’s now your turn to bring someone into the kingdom of God. In Matthew 28:18-20 – the great Commission.

LESSON OUTLINE ONE

POINTS TO CONSIDER

1. Disciples are the only one fit for the work of soul winning (Matt 28:16-20). Jesus Christ had other followers, but during the great commission He was talking to His Disciples not all other followers.

2. Soul winning is more in what you do than in what you say. Jesus Christ lived all the commandments He has given us to obey. It’s His life and we see Him as an example this is why we are following Him. Even as you preach to the dying world, your life must match what you are saying. I’d rather say be a Jesus to the sinners out there. Our life as children of God is also a way of soul winning.

3. When you go out for witnessing, preach Jesus (the gospel) alone and not a denomination. Preach about the salvation of God. Mark 16:15

4. Don’t get into arguments when witnessing. It’s not right as a child of God to get involved into a debate. 2 Tim. 2:16

5. Let the Holy Spirit work in them. When you witness, Commit their hearts into the hands of God and keep on praying for them. Matthew 21:22

ACTIVITY: Get one soul to God’s kingdom this week.

SUMMARY: He that wins soul is wise (Prov 11:30). Let us bring joy into the kingdom of God (Luke 15:7).

CONCLUSION: Jesus Christ commanded us to make disciples of all nations. The work of soul winning therefore is not just for only a group of people, but for all the children of God. We bring great joy to heaven when we win a soul for Christ.

PRAYER POINTS

1. Lord, build me up to be a disciple fit for soul winning.

2. Increase my desire for soul winning Lord Jesus.

3. Help me to be patient with those I witness to in the name of Jesus Christ.

4. Father, let every member of RCCG become an ardent soul winner.

5. Father, help Daddy and Mummy G.0. to continue winning souls for You.
