Partners With God

From: Billy Graham Ministries

Matthew 10:32 "Everyone who acknowledges Me before others I will acknowledge before My Heavenly Father."

Some think that only ministers are to preach, but that is wrong. Every Christian is to be a witness; every follower of Christ is to preach the Gospel.
 
We can preach by sharing our experience with others. We can preach by exalting Christ in our daily lives. Sermons which are seen are often more effective than those which are heard. The truth is: the best sermons are both heard and seen. They are a sort of audiovisual testimony. We can also preach by our faithful financial stewardship. Missionary gifts, church offerings, and charitable contributions all speak eloquently of your unselfishness and Christian generosity.
 
In all these things, we are partners with God. We are helping by His grace to redeem the world. God needs our time, our talents, our witnessing, and our money, today more than at any
other time in history. Become a full, working partner with God.
 
"Preach the Gospel at all times...and sometimes use words." - St Francis of Assisi
