7 STEPS TO PERFECTING SOUL WINNING
1. Be filled with the Holy Spirit. Be constantly filled with the Holy Spirit. Never lack in zeal. Maintain the glow of the spirit. Be ever filled with the Spirit
Be constantly filled with the Holy Spirit and your zeal will help maintain the healthy glow that comes when you are filled with the Holy Spirit. If you are not replete with the Holy Spirit it will be difficult to draw people in. You will not be able to transfer the Holy Spirit to others if it not within you.
“And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ” (Ephesians 5:18 – 20).
The fact that you’ve received the Holy Spirit doesn’t mean you’ll always be full of Him. You must continually practice being filled with Him.
This is the first step to perfecting your soul winning efforts. You must be afire, aglow, enthusiastic and full of zeal about the Kingdom.
Romans 12:11 (AMP) says: “Never lag in zeal and in earnest endeavor; be aglow and burning with the Spirit, serving the Lord.”
This is what happens to you when you are filled with Spirit. When you are constantly filled with the Spirit of God and overflowing with His love, it will be effortless to spread the Gospel as it will be in your consciousness.
All your waking moments, you’re to be full of the Spirit, and when that happens, your life will be one of unstoppable success and ever-increasing glory. You will surround yourself with Holy thoughts and sing holy songs.
Today there are many amazing radio and tv channels full of wholesome Christian vibes and good gospel music.
This will allow you to consciously talk, sing, and make a melody of the Word, in your heart, to the Lord. Your prayers and praise will flow naturally.
This is a simple but very profound instruction given to us by the Spirit, and if you’ll practice it constantly and consistently, you will experience the blessings thereof.
2. Have an understanding of the gospel.
Have a clear understanding of the gospel doesn’t just happen. You have to invest time and work on it.
“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15).
Having a clear understanding of the Gospel is vital to effectively communicate it. Otherwise, you’d preach the gospel without the clarity and passion needed to be effective.
At Christ Embassy there is a wealth of teaching materials that give in-depth an explanation of what the Gospel of Jesus Christ is. You can access audio and video recordings on the Pastor Chris Digital Library to develop your comprehension of the Gospel.
Use the Rhapsody of Realities to learn and teach about the Gospel
The Rhapsody of Realities is one important publication that’ll also help build your understanding of the Gospel of Christ.
It is a well structured clear guide to the meaning of the scripture and easily accessible via the app. This way it is something that can be shared with everyone you meet. Not only can it be communicated in a language that is relevant there are versions for young adults as well. The ‘Teevo’ Rhapsody is written in a style relatable to young people.
There’s no other way to the Father, except Jesus Christ. He said, “…I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” (John 14:6).
This is absolute reality, and it must form the basis of your convictions: your speech, your thinking. Your outlook on life must be from this understanding and persuasion about Christ and His Gospel.”
With a full understanding of the overflow of God’s love evangelists plan and execute their strategy for effective soul-winning. When you are ready to execute this plan pray for its success. Pray for the souls you will win. Keep learning and imbibing the word of the Gospel
3. Explain the gospel.
There’s a difference between preaching the gospel and explaining it. Preaching is an announcement: Liberty, freedom from sin, infirmity, darkness, death; we are announcing the benefits. But you also have to explain the gospel.
4. Lead them into salvation.
Many times we may preach and explain the gospel but not actually lead them into salvation. You’ve got to give them an opportunity to come into Christ. You do this by helping them in the confession of the lordship of Jesus. When they believe you, make sure they make the confession because that’s when they receive the salvation.
5. Receive them into God’s family.
Many times we preach and we don’t receive the people into the family of God. The awareness: they need to know where they are now. They need to know they are in the kingdom of God. You’ve got to tell them. They must be brought into the awareness of their new place. The awareness of their new home; that they are now in God’s family.
6. Introduce the Church’s mentorship program.
Now that they are in the kingdom, they must be taught. Christianity has a way of life. They must be brought up in the way of the lord. “…teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you” (Matthew 28:20). The Church teaches them these things that Jesus taught us. The Church has this mentorship program aimed at bringing someone up till they become mature sons of God.
7. Release them into leadership. Mentor them and bring them into positions of leadership that they may be blessings to others.
With these steps you will perfect your soul winning.
Glory to God! We’ve been empowered to take our soul winning to a greater level of glory and we are expectant of much testimonies.
Soul Winning is based on three major things:
1. Our true faith in Christ, our belief in him, our love for the master we truly believe in what he came to do. If you believe in what he came to do, you would tell somebody else.
2. Our hope of his soon return and because of that soon return, we believe that we need to tell other people about that truth. About Jesus coming again, we want them to know the master is coming back. If we truly believe we want to tell somebody else.
3. His instruction for us to win souls to tell others is his command.
