Results of the Work – 10/19/21

Hey Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

I hope you had a blessed day in the Lord. I had a good day on campus and Alma prayed to receive Jesus today and Jeremy committed to Christ and said he trusted in Him but had to run to the Bus and said he would pray later asking if I came around often and would look for me. D’ Andre a guy with a small round head and stick straight blondish hair said he would be thinking about committing to Christ and wanted to think it through some more. “Awesome, thank you.” He said when I said I’d look for him another time. Please pray they’re blessed. There are some details below if you have time you want to spend. Thanks for your prayers.

Alma was sitting in the hallway where the Student Services Center connects with the SRC on the ground floor in an overstuffed chair. She had a slight African accent and a watchman’s cap on that was green and yellow. She wore a waist length green hooded parka with a fur edge on the hood and jeans. She had pretty eyes and I could see the top of a flat pug nose, but then, it might have been being flattened by the mask. When I asked her what she would say to God to get into Heaven she said, “Because I share your word. I always pray. I read my Bible.” She thought she had a 50% chance of going to Heaven. When I said God had to take away her sins to live inside her I asked her what Jesus had done to take away her sin that but she did not seem to know. So I went on to explain the gospel to her. I was sitting on the floor to her right and she supported her head leaning on her hand looking down at the booklet I held up for her to see explaining as I went. I could not tell how much interest she had. But when I asked her if she would want to be forgiven trusting in what Jesus had done for her so God could live inside her or thought something else she said, “Forgiven with God inside me.” So I said if she wanted to be forgiven there was a prayer she could pray and talked her through the prayer. I asked if it was the desire of her heart and she said, “Yeah.” So I said she could pray it quietly and God would hear and forgive her and she took the booklet and prayed to receive Jesus. I explained the Christian life living by the Spirit’s power “Inside Out” to her. I gave her a copy of 20 Things God Can’t Do and wrote Just Ask on a couple pages  explaining it to her and wrote her name and the date and forgiven inside. She asked if I came there each day and I said, “Yes m’am.” “I would like to learn more,” she replied. “I am here on Monday and Thursday can you teach me?” I gave her a card with my phone number on it and said if she still wanted to meet then she could text me on Thursday. I would teach her a Bible study then. I could meet her where we were sitting. She thanked me and I gave her a Bible Study to do on her own on the deity of Christ and I said I would pray for her each day.

 Jeremy had no time but wanted to hear quickly how to go to Heaven as he could not answer the question about what to say to get in. He had wavy hair and a grey hoodie on but I could not make out his face. I went through the Gospel as quickly as I could and he said he would pray later because he had to run for the bus. I said, “Do you believe Jesus is God died for your sins and rose from the dead and he said he did. I asked, “Are you trusting in that now for your sins to be forgiven and go to Heaven?” He said, “Yes.”  So I said the only thing left was for him to tell that to God. He ran off asking if I would be around again and I said yes and we agreed to look for each other.

So Thanks for your prayers for the ministry and for evangelism today if you had a chance. God truly blessed.

In Him,

Bob
