Giving your Faith away takes some courage, boldness, and intentionality.  It also takes all of us, using our different personalities and gifts.  We might talk to someone, and it goes nowhere, but at least you took the step.  But I believe from experience that you’ll be surprised how often it does go somewhere.  Our job is to go out and spread the seed and then see what God does with it.  We really need to make a point to intentionally go out and start conversations…starting with prayer.

Prayer:  “Lord, today I’m going to be walking around Orange City (or wherever you are today), I’d love to be able to make a Kingdom Difference, so I’m praying for a Divine Appointment with someone.  Give me the heart posture of love, the ears to listen, the mind to discern, and the words and wisdom to respond with the help of your Holy Spirit.  I believe it, press into it, and know it will happen.  I can’t wait to see what you do with it.”

Possible Scenario’s: 

Example #1 – Hello-welcome to our community-where are you all from (listen)?  What do (did) you do for a living over there?  (listen)  Did you find that pretty fulfilling…you enjoyed it…feel like you make a difference?  I work for Pizza Ranch…it’s been an amazing experience.  It’s been nice to work for a company that tries to impact people and communities in such a positive way. We even do events that share the gospel message.  Are you a person of Faith?

Yes=Praise the Lord!  So, you probably share/shared your faith in work as well.

No=Oh wow, I knew it was no mistake I was standing next to you.  Let me tell you what the Bible says (Present the gospel message…See card below):

Example #2 (more direct) – Hello-this might sound crazy, but I saw you over here and had this deep feeling I was supposed to come and talk to you.  Are you doing okay?  Is there any way I can pray for you? Ask them if they are a person of Faith.

Yes=Praise the Lord!  So, you probably share/shared your faith in work as well.

No=Oh wow, I knew it was no mistake the Lord had me come over.  Let me tell you what the Bible says (Present the gospel message…See card below):

Example #3 (Maybe even more direct) – Hi, this is great isn’t it?  Nice to be at parade where everybody’s together and seemingly happy to be here…right (listen)?  It just seems like the world is crazy right now…a lot of people looking for hope in their lives…a reason to find joy.  For me, my hope came through Jesus…my life changed…I realized I needed forgiveness to change my heart…to make me care about others.  Are you a person of Faith?

Yes=Praise the Lord!  So, you probably share/shared your faith in work as well.

No=Oh wow, I knew it was no mistake the Lord had me come over here.  Let me tell you what the Bible says.
