WE ARE WITNESSES UNTO THE LORD

                



Pastor Cheri 



PRAYER

Thank you Lord fir the Word which is food for our spirits, we grow bigger as we eat today, guided and piloted by it in all our affairs, in Jesus' Name. Amen. 

“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.” Acts 1:8


What are you building with your life?  

What will follow us to heaven is our work in the gospel.

The souls you have won, the money you have given, these are the things that will follow you to heaven

“For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building. According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise master builder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth” 1 Cor 3:9-10.


We are builders, we are building lives 

As we round the church age what works are you going to go to heaven with?

 If you are not winning souls heaven maybe not be a nice place for you because when you see those the way God honor those who serve him.

We are builders 


“For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;” 1 Cor 3:11-12


EXAMINE YOUR  WORKS 

There are works of gold 

Then we have Wood, hay and stubble which are not good at all

“Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.” 1 Cor 3:13

Every man’s work shall be tried by fire.

When fire comes on gold it will shine more, when fire comes on silver, it will shine more, when fire comes on precious stones it will still remain but when fire comes on wood it will burn.

Hay, wood and stubble will be burnt up

God categorizes their work as nothing. 


What are Gold medal works? It means witnessing 

The Lord said to us “Go ye into all the world” 

What will follow you to heaven is your work in the gospel

When the rapture takes place you will carry nothing 

We came to this world with nothing we will leave with nothing 1 Timothy 6:7

”Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.”


What sort of work are you doing? 

You can be doing a lot of work but it’s nothing before God 

Like an usher whose attraction is dressing 


What you are doing is it helping others to discover their salvation and live for Jesus

As we round up the church age, what works will follow you

There are many of you here 

You have never won a soul

There will be a lot of regret in heaven


“Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name. And they shall be mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him. Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.” Malachi 3:16-18


When you see people winning souls, serving the Lord and giving don’t ever think they are wasting time.

You have to start building now, hurry now


The healing stream is your opportunity 

The Cell Outreaches are your opportunity

The ROR of reality is your opportunity 

Don't let anybody deceive you and tell you it doesn’t matter 

It matters! 


Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground? 8And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it: 9And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down.” Luke 13:7-9

“Then Jesus told them this parable: “There was a man who planted a fig tree in his . But when he came to gather fruit from his tree he found none, for it was barren and had no fruit. 7 So he said to his gardener, ‘For the last three years I’ve come to gather figs from my tree but it remains fruitless. What a waste! Go ahead and cut it down 8 But the gardener said, ‘Sir, we should leave it one more year. Let me fertilize and cultivate it, then let’s see if it will produce fruit. 9 If it doesn’t bear fruit by next year, we’ll cut it down” Luke 13:6-8 TPT


WE ARE HIS WITNESSES

What is Witnessing? 

- It means to be a martyr 

- To tell somebody about what you gave seen and heard 

- It means to lay down your life for the gospel

 

An incident during the Liberian war

The woman refused to deny Christ

The man denied and was shot, died and went go hell


You have to be a witness for the Lord 

1. You witness with your life 

Your life is a message 

Ask the question, does anybody want to become a Christian because of you?

The first way to witness is with your life 

Phil 2:13

Do u murmur? Are u a complainer? 


Our goal for healing stream is to witness

Our goal for the crusade/outreaches is to witness


1 Corinthians 3:13-16 KJV

If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.

If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire. ¶Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?


Remember nothing will follow you to heaven if you are not involved in an impactful way.
