Forty Strangers in Forty Days

Now that Easter is over most Christians will go back to their usual lives and think this is it until Christmas. Well my friends I have to say that it should not be business as usual, but we should do as Jesus commanded us before he was taken up. That is to be a witness of Him. Did you know that Jesus didn't immediately go to Heaven, but hung out with his Disciples for 40 days.

Acts 1:3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God: 

Therefore, I would like to challenge my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ to do something different this year. I'd like us to spend the next 40 days reaching out to the lost of the world. You see Jesus commanded the Disciples and us to go out into the world and teach every nation about Him.
 
Matthew 28:19. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
 
Starting Monday I challenge each of you to get out of your comfort zone and speak to one stranger per day for next 40 days. They have to be someone you've never spoken to about Jesus. It can be as simple as handing them an invitation to church or really getting out of your comfort zone and tell them how they can have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. How he died for their sins and that they can be free from the bondage of sin and live a new life in Him.


So folks, the gauntlet has been laid down before you, by me, but most of all by Jesus, who commanded us to be a witness for him. Will you take the challenge? Will you show Jesus to someone in the next 40 days? If you do, please share your stories on this blog or Facebook so others can be encouraged to do the same.
