Your Story

You don’t have to be a pastor or Bible teacher to have a spiritual impact on somebody’s life. Here are some things you can do:

Invite people into your world. If you know someone who is far from God, find ways to show up in their world as the Spirit leads you. “Do you want to go to lunch?” Do you want to work on this project together? Do you want to hang out? Jesus said He was like the doctor who came for the sick, not the well. That means He didn’t come to reconcile those who were already convinced, but for those who were unconvinced. 

Pray for them. Every time you are in a conversation with God, bring up that person to Him. “God, I care about this person. I know You love them more than I do and more than I can imagine. Show me an opportunity to connect and make a difference in this person’s life.” Wait for God’s lead and then follow through.

Care for them. Show up. Both people who believe in God and those who don’t, go through the same tough times in life. We all need a meal when we’re sick, help when we move, and encouragement when we’re down. We all need a team. Maybe you can be on someone’s team and care for them in the way that Jesus would do. 

Share your story. Write down your experience. What was your life like before you believed in Christ? What was it that led you to put your trust in Christ? How has your life been different since you started following Jesus? You don’t have to be able to quote lots of Scripture or be able to answer every difficult theological question. Just share what has happened in your life and how Christ has made a difference. 

Christ’s invitation to Peter and Andrew is the same invitation He has given you and me: “Follow me and I will make you fishers of men.” 

Father, thank you for sending your Son to reconcile me to You. I’m grateful You took the initiative to reach out to me. Today, I say yes to Your invitation. I want to follow Jesus in the business of reconciliation. Help me see the people around me the way You see them, so I may love them as You do. In Jesus name, Amen. 

We hope you enjoyed today’s encouraging word. We welcome you to watch the full-length message from River Pointe Church: Click Here

Being a Christian… what does that mean? Jesus came to establish a relationship with us, not a religion or an institution. In this third devotional from the Follow series, we will conclude that Jesus came to earth to make a relationship with our Creator possible. We have the opportunity to know the one true God and to live our lives in light of this connection that we have with Him.
