True conversion is evidenced by true and demonstrable change. Let’s pray that the Lord would give us courage in our families, and amongst friends, as well as work colleagues. Witnessing will be costly so we need God-given boldness.

As Christians, may we reflect on our own lives and share something of the people we used to be before we knew Jesus. May we remember the time when we met with the risen Jesus and became Christians. And may we consider, imperfect though we are, the new people God has made us.

We’re called to spread the Gospel in good times and in bad. As we do so, we’ll see true conversions – authentic change – but we’ll also be disappointed by those who appeared to believe and said all the right things, but they had no root – no saving faith in Jesus. We must examine also our own hearts to ensure that, yes, we have admitted our sinfulness to God and cast ourselves on Jesus alone to save us.

All Christians have been given a spiritual gift to use in the church. May the Lord help us to have open eyes, so we will see the needs which exist and meet them as we can.

We are called to be Christ’s witnesses in the world. Are we serious about telling others about Jesus? Are you serious about it? Then pray for boldness and for the right attitude and perspective when we face opposition from others.
