Best Places to Evangelize

[RDKirk]

I believe we can only begin to talk about evangelism when we start with the right nation where we can win as many souls as possible. Western nations have hardened their hearts to the gospel, though 99% have knowledge of the gospel. I believe this is mainly because of their over-decadence and mis-education (governmental and media).

Many in the third world are like sponges, where conversions are exploding, because people seem more willing to open their hearts minds to the gospel and believe in Jesus because they do not suffer from these same ailments.

Ironically, though, there is at least one Kenyan mission to the US, and I've heard that there are Chinese missionaries preparing to come here. Perhaps it's as Jesus said, "'A prophet is not without honor except in his own town, among his relatives and in his own home.'" (Mark 6)

The best place to go is where the Lord sends you. Concentrate prayer on being where the Lord wants you to be today. When you read the book of Acts, you see that they always went where the Lord specifically told them to go. Yes, pray for a vision of your "man from Macedonia."

You often don't have to go anywhere special, just pray earnestly.for the Lord to tell you who to speak to tomorrow morning.

Not long ago, I spent a couple of weeks with that prayer: "Lord, show me who you want me to speak to about You." Then one night, I got two dreams. In the first dream, I was going to gunstores all around town--not looking for a gun, but looking for a particular gun dealer. I woke up from that, didn't think much of it, and fell back asleeep. I had the second dream, this time I was in the library searching all the newspapers and magazines for gun advertisements, again searching for a particular gun dealer.

When I woke up, a thought came to me instantly: "Talk to John about Jesus." John was a man I knew, a gun dealer in a local pawn shop.

So I sought him out first thing that morning. Unsurprisingly, the events of the day were unusually haywire. It seemed like everything worked against me getting to him. But I got there, exchanged a bit of pleasantries, asked him how he was. Suddenly he opened up to me with a deep personal problem. I consoled and counselled him, talked to him about the Lord, which he received gladly.

The place to go is the place the Lord sends you, and He's the person to ask.

Hi,

I have tried various kinds of witnessing, mainly just talking to people in shopping centers, or at work. I am open to learn some new methods and I will be looking over what you guy have said in more detail. However if you really want to get out there there is nothing better than facebook. I spend $7 per day and reach around 100,000 people per week with portions of the gospel. See https://www.facebook.com/everybodymattersministry you can reach millions of people each year on a small budget.

Never done that, but I have set up a table in the park with a sign that said, "Lonesome? Need to talk to someone? Need Prayer?" You'd be amazed at the response I got.

Have been thinking about doing something similar to this. I have seen a few healings lately, but I find it very difficult to approach sick people, i.e. in wheelchairs etc because I don't want to offend them or their carers, if there was a way they could come to me it would be awesome. I have also been thinking about visiting forums dedicated to illnesses and ask for prayer there. I know I am a bit of a chicken, but I am just learning what is and is not acceptable.

Does anyone think having a hospital ministry would work ?

Have like a support group there for patients and their friends and family members....

People die in hospitals....They can be in serious life threatening situations....Seems like a no brainer to have a group there to pray for these people, and to witness....

What does anyone think about that one ?

Not that long ago, practically every hospital had a chapel and a chaplain.

First of all, I would like to Praise God and his plan of salvation. I joined this forum a few months ago but have not been here much at all. The most important part of our calling in laboring for God is winning souls for Christ. Sharing the Gospel is by far the most rewarding gift here on earth. I enjoy reading testimonies about evangelizing. Knowing that God is using others as his vessels to bring the message of repentance through Calvaries Cross is both a blessing and uplifting.

I usually like to go into the parking lot of a local market. As people go in and out they are in a hurry. But if I follow them and give them a flyer telling them that Jesus is the answer to all the hustle and bustle of life they are struggling through. Then when they reach their car I always offer to return their shopping cart to the shopping cart section. They always give me a look of appreciation. We are called to be servants and and to be an example. When someone stops to listen, then I take the opportunity to share the plan of salvation through scripture. With todays technology, I use my Ipad to quote a list of scriptures that pertain to the plan of salvation. I offer prayer and rides to church and even take information down to share with a brother or sister from church who can be available depending on where they live.
