Reading: 2 Corinthians 2, Numbers 33 and Psalm 65
Scripture: 2 Corinthians 2:17, For we are not, like so many, peddlers of God's word, but as men of sincerity, as commissioned by God, in the sight of God we speak in Christ.
Observation: There have been many times where I have heard people saying that evangelists are just salesmen trying to get people to buy what they are selling. Apparently people have been say that for 2000 years. Paul was adamant that we not be that way.
Application: The gospel, the best news in all of time is not a bill of goods to be sold to someone it is meeting someone where they are showing than where you were and how God has changed you and sharing that free gift of Christ.
Prayer: Father I thank you for sending your son to us and the sacrifice he made to welcome us into the folds of your love. I thank you for the provisions and blessings you give us and the opportunities that we are given to share your love. I ask that you help us to see them and give us the encouragement to step out of our comfort zone and talk to those you place on our heart.
