The Way Of Evangelism: Christ Convictions

All English Service

Conviction means a believing heart, and it's the prayer of a convicted remnant that mobilizes angels to work. Convictions come from deep prayers as you confirm the truth and inscribe it unto your heart, so that it can be the strength in your heart and give you the ability to do the good in you. Convictions come from the the many unresolving problems in your life that drives you to have the continual need to turn to God and be comforted by His truth, again and again. Conviction comes when you train yourself to live before God, not man. And very importantly, conviction certainly comes through brethren living. After crossing the Jordan river, God made Joshua circumcised the people before the enemy, in a state which the Israelites were so vulnerable and could be easily attacked by the enemy. What does it tell us? Be afraid of not your enemy (problems); rather, be really afraid when your heart is stolen by the enemy. Even before the storm, before the big and challenging problems, God was more concerned with His people's circumcision than fighting the war. God has every ability to fight and win the war and give His people the promised land, but the reason why He wanted them circumcised is to set them apart and put His covenant in their hearts first - their identity, their purpose of living, and that they must not forget the works of the Lord in their lives. Live as one circumcised, be convicted by the truths.

“Blessed by God”, yet our circumstances do not seem to match this? What is the definition of “blessing”? How would a child of God be blessed? The truth is, believers of Jesus are indeed blessed, yet whenever we lose the assurance of Immanuel (God with us), we will lose the joy and power that we should rightfully enjoy. Though God’s blessings also include outward tangible ones, we cannot simply define divine blessings by those. Trials and divine discipline are also God’s ways of blessing and loving us. Through this sermon, let us confirm God’s blessings once again.


Verses to Read: <Gen 26:1-6; 12-16; 19-29>


1. Though blessed by God, we are still weak.

1) Problem: Lose assurance of Immanuel (God with us).

2) Good news: God came to seek the lost sinner.

2) God’s assured promises <v3-4>

3. Response of a blessed person.
