Don't miss a great week of unprecedented opportunity. What better time to tell people about Christ - these are some of the best days of the year. Be counter-cultural!
When relatives of the Titanic passengers awaited word in the Liverpool office of the White Star Lines, their eyes were fixed to two huge boards with two lists. All of their hopes and dreams for loved ones were either lost or they lived on depending on which list posted the name for which they held vigil.
The lists? They were simply titled "Known to be saved" and "Known to be lost."
Same lists we have today. The only lists that matter.
Don't forget your "Known to be lost" list. Don't forget that friend, neighbor, co-worker, or relative who needs to know Christ. Don't be so caught up in your preparation and joy during the season that you lose sight of those without hope and true joy.
For someone to move from the "Known to be lost" to the "Known to be saved" list, we must be intentional rescuers.
What if we prayed what Ron Hutchcraft calls the "3-open prayer" every day for the next week? "Lord, open a door...open their heart...open my mouth."
What if every day for the next week we made it a point to tell one person the meaning of Christmas? It could be a statement as simple as, "I have a message from God for you; Merry Christmas! God wants you to know He loves you."
How many people could we impact in one short week?
God, open a door daily...open the hearts You send me to...open my mouth so You can speak through me.
