Ask of me,
and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost
parts of the earth for thy possession (Psalm 2:8).
What an
awesome invitation from the Lord! He’s inviting you to ask Him for the
salvation of the souls of men in your world (your neighbourhood, workplace,
etc.). God wants to give you the souls of men, so you can fill them with the
Word, nurture them in the way of righteousness and teach them how to live the
Christ-life! However, you’d have to ask in intercession. Pray for the lost that
they may receive salvation.
In Matthew
28:19-20, Jesus said, “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations...Teaching them
to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you....” That’s the charge
given to us. You therefore have a God-ordained right to ask for the souls of
men; and when you ask, receive, because the Word has already been given that He
who asks shall be given (Matthew 7:7).
If you’re a
cell-group leader, a fellowship coordinator or even a Pastor, practise this.
Take the limits off and be bold to say, “Blessed Father, in the Name of the
Lord Jesus, I receive so-and-so number of souls into this fellowship, with the
ability to retain and nurture them in the way of righteousness.” When you do,
the Lord will give you visions and ideas, on how and what to do to make it
happen.
It’s time
to lay claims to the souls of the unsaved in your world. It doesn’t matter
where you function. He said, “Ask and I will do it!” So, act on the Word and
ask. Don’t ask and say, “I’m waiting on God to do it; no. When you ask, believe
it’s done, and act accordingly! You’ll see results. Halleluiah!
PRAYER: Dear
Father, I thank you for the ability of the Spirit granted me to preach the
Gospel of Christ to the lost. Today, I ask for a mighty harvest of souls as
your Gospel is taught and preached around the world! Your Word prevails
mightily in the hearts of the unconverted, destroying religious barriers and
eliminating the wrong mindsets, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

STUDY: Jeremiah 31:12 NLT - They will come home and sing songs of joy on
the heights of Jerusalem .
They will be radiant because of the Lord’s good gifts—the abundant crops
of grain, new wine, and olive oil, and the healthy flocks and herds. Their life
will be like a watered garden, and all their sorrows will be gone.
Hebrews 4:16 NLT - So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most.
