Pro.11 v 30: The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and he who wins souls is wise.
The business of winning souls should be our primary occupation as believers. God has also equipped us for this task; so we don’t have any reason for not winning souls. As you can see from our text scripture in (Pro.11v30), winning souls is the wise thing to do. But the excuse that many believers come up with is that soul-winning is hard and difficult to do. This is why this series of teachings are coming your way today i.e. so that you can know that soul winning can become a delight. So, what are the things that can make soul-winning easy?
Things that can make soul winning easy:
- Be a full-time believer or Christian. You are called to be a full-time believer and not a part-time believer. What do I mean by this? I simply mean that you are to be a believer 24hours of the day, 7 days in a week, et cetera. You are meant to be a believer every blessed day of the week, every blessed minute and second of the day. You are not supposed to be a believer only on Sunday but every blessed day. This simply means that who you are (i.e. believer) should manifest or show in every area of your life. When you live this way, you will be His living witness everywhere you go (1Pet.2v9). My dear reader, it’s time to be a full-time believer. It’s time to represent Christ every day and everywhere.
- Decide to be a soul-winner. Soul-winning will become easy when you commit to the business of winning souls. Do you know that it takes commitment for anything to work and succeed? If you will be successful in winning souls, you must be willing to commit. When you are committed to a thing, it also shows up in your actions, conduct, and behavior (Acts 11v23).
Are you ready to make a strong commitment to winning souls come rain or shine? Are you ready to stand true to your words in the face of opposition or discouragement? The answer you give to these questions will determine how far you will go in the business of winning souls.
May the Lord enable you to keep your commitment! May you never miss out on these opportunities of being His witness everywhere you go.

Prayer for Today: Precious Holy Spirit, I commit myself to being a full-time believer and a diligent soul-winner in Jesus name, amen.
CONFESSION: I embrace the culture of a soul-winner. Soul-winning is no longer a chore or burden for me because I represent Him well as His child every blessed day. Therefore, I am on duty and on assignment every waking moment by His grace and I will not pass up the opportunities of being His faithful witness. This is my pledge and desire in Jesus name, amen.
