MESSAGE
When Jesus was leaving the earth for heaven, He called all His disciples together and told them, ‘Go and tell other people about me, tell them I love them and I want to be their Friend. I want to deliver them from sin and Satan’.
Imagine you have a friend whom you love so much. You love him more than food, you will want to tell every person you come in contact with about that friend. As a friend of Jesus, you must have the desire to love Him and obey His commandment by making Him known to your friends, so that they can receive the salvation He purchased for them with His blood on the cross at Calvary.
Therefore, as you play with your friends, as you share food, tell them about your dear Friend, Jesus. Tell them that He loves them and wants to live in their hearts. All they need to do is to confess all the bad things they’ve done and ask Him to forgive them, and He will forgive freely.
This is the most important duty of all friends of Jesus. Do your part and preach the gospel to all around you. Then you will enjoy special blessings from God.
Prayer: Lord Jesus, please help me to tell sinners around me about Your love for them.

1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
