Yesterday I shared a message with our church about the people who brought their friend to Jesus. They had to cut a hole in the roof of a house to get him to Jesus. And that one act, bringing their friend to Jesus, changed so many things.
In the message I asked two questions. These might be very good questions for you to answer and to think about a little deeper…
Who brought you to Jesus?
Who are you bringing to Jesus?
We all need Jesus. First it is salvation. That changes us forever and ever. But we also need Jesus every day.
It might be that we can bring people to Jesus when they are struggling, when they need healing, or when we need a dose of hope and help. Jesus is the one who gives what we can’t give, and what He gives last a lot longer than anything we can give.
Think of the reasons you would bring people to Jesus. It ought to be many reasons. And praise God that He gave us His son to come to.
1 Peter 5:7 NLT
Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.
Psalms 103:3 NLT
He forgives all my sins and heals all my diseases.
Isaiah 43:25 NIV
I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions, for my own sake, and remembers your sins no more.
Matthew 11:28 NLT
Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.
Proverbs 8:34 NIV
Blessed are those who listen to me, watching daily at my doors, waiting at my doorway.
That is just a few reasons to bring people Jesus. That is just a few reasons to come to Jesus ourselves.
Some people come to Jesus on their own, but so many need someone to guide them, to love someone enough to bring them to the one who really can make a difference.
Who are you bringing to Jesus today?
