Soul Winning: Church, I can say with confidence, that God’s will for all men, all women, for all of us, who will profess Christ as Lord, it’s all about soul winning. Matthew 4:21-22 says, And going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets, and he called them. 22 Immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him.  Have a Passion for Winning Souls: There should always be a willingness to seek after the richness of the word of God, to stir the hearts and challenge people to seek after Christ and His will for the human race. Everything that Christ had in mind, and everything that has to do with the church of Christ, it has to do with winning souls. Whenever people ask me, what is God’s will for my life, my answer is, winning souls.Now this is a crazy response to following Jesus: Who in their right mind, would just up and quit their job, because some stranger said follow me. Not only did this stranger say follow me, but he also said follow me and I will make you a fisher of men. In the natural way of looking at this situation, yes it is crazy, weird, bizarre and stupid. But in the supernatural realm this was brilliant, magnificent, courageous and out right bold. When God asks us to do something, how come we don’t respond as quickly to His come and follow me. Can you imagine what our lives would be like, if we responded to God just as fast, as James and John did? John 6:63 says "It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.John 15:26 says "But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me.
