Six Magnets To Pull People To JESUS

When you're doing earth with a heaven heart, you see every person in your world as a forever person and not just a creature of time. You understand that they're headed for one of two destinations. 1 John 5:11-12 says, "God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life." The good news is that the people you know in your community who are on God's lost list could still change lists if they had a rescuer - somebody who's within the reach of that person to literally be a magnet that pulls them to Jesus Christ.


Day 1: Introduction


Will you tell about your rescuer?


In a world that is looking for a life of significance, is there anymore significant impact you could have in your little time on earth than to take some people to heaven with you? That is your eternal destiny. You are a child of the High King of heaven, and God has chosen you so you would tell about Him! 1 Peter 2:9 says, "You are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light." Declare His praises to the people in your world.
Philemon 1:6 says, "I pray that you may be active in sharing your faith, so that you will have a full understanding of every good thing we have in Christ." You won't fully understand life as a Christian until you start sharing your faith. If you just consume everything and keep it to yourself, there are things you'll never understand about Jesus.


Your own love for Jesus grows when you start to tell people about Him. 1 Peter 3:15 says, "In your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect." Your bond with Jesus grows as you join Him in the work that He came and died for. God will break through where you are because somebody is willing to be the messenger.

The following are five reasons you should be willing to tell about your rescuer:

• It's the overflow of your love relationship with Him. The experience of a life with Jesus Christ makes us want to tell all about Him. He's somebody you love and the only one who ever loved you enough to die for you and walk out of His grave. He gave you the power to change. There's always going to be something new He's done for you, because when He's Lord of your life, He's always showing you new areas of your life that He wants to change.
• You can't be ashamed of the name. It can be easy to talk about God, your church, or even family values. When you start sharing about what has happened in your life, Satan makes you stop at the name of Jesus. Don't choke on Jesus' name. All the power is in Jesus' name, not just God's name. If you want to find out where somebody is spiritually, start to talk about what Jesus has done for you. You can't be ashamed of His name, because he hung on a cross not ashamed of you.
• You are depending on a God takeover. God has promised that He will move in with words and with courage. No one can come to Jesus unless the Father draws him, and God can deliver His truth through your personality. It doesn't matter if you're an introvert, an extrovert, or a culvert, God will use the personality He's given you to deliver His message. You're the one He picked for the people you know. There's destiny involved in your relationships, where you work, and where you live. You are depending on this being a total work of God that has been planned from eternity past; you plan on a God take over.
• You are amazed by your message. All day and every day in heaven, the people who work with God are saying, "Worthy is the Lamb! Worthy is the Lamb!" The only thing Jesus brought back from earth was the scars. Seeing those scars, they keep singing "Worthy is the Lamb!" They can't get over what Jesus did and they are amazed. Speak of Him because you never lose the wonder that the Son of God died on a cross for what you did.
• You have a heart for their eternity. Think about the fate and the eternity of people that you're with every day. What will be their eternal destination? Their final destination can change from hell to heaven today. Jesus was shut out from the presence of God the Father as He took their everlasting destruction, going through their hell on the cross.
