Share Life Africa

Well Done. Now, those are two words we all want to hear. Whether in this life or eternity with Christ, we want to be told, “I’m proud of you! You did it! Well done!”

It is not much different from when my grandchildren try to get my attention and acknowledgment. They could be riding a bike or sliding into a pool, but they always cry out, “Watch me! Watch me, Grandpa!” They want to know that I am seeing what they are doing so, in turn, I can tell them how proud I am of what they have done.Well, I want to encourage you today—God is watching you.

He is watching your actions, and one day He will tell you, His precious child, “Well done. I’m so proud of you.” He wants you to live a life full of love and full of Him. And He has given us an incredible purpose—to share the Gospel with all of creation.

When you arrive in Heaven, do you want to hear God say, “Well done, good and faithful servant”? Now I know I do!

And while we know that God is the “author and finisher of our faith,” the truth is that finishing strong isn’t something that just happens. It has to be worked on. And one way we can finish strong is to share our faith. Because one of the last commands Jesus left us was to “go and preach the gospel with everyone.” So when we share our faith intentionally, we bear eternal fruit. People will give their lives to God. This isn’t just good news for a moment—it is good news for eternity! And praying with others to receive the free gift of eternal life is frankly one of the greatest joys that we, as believers, can experience.

So as followers of Christ, the greatest legacy we can leave is to be remembered as those who talked about Jesus and shared the Gospel.

Magdeline came to one of our evangelism trainings in South Africa and learned how to share the Gospel using her hand. She learned about God’s grace and the other Gospel points. After experiencing what it was like to share the Gospel, Magdeline’s heart caught fire for sharing the Good News with everyone that she came across. She was so passionate and committed that her friend Sophie told her, “Magdeline, I have a children’s discipleship program from the same ministry that I’d like to come and teach in your church.”

After the training, she ran to Sophie and asked, “Can we take this and teach it in the schools? Because this is too good to end up in churches only.” And that’s how Sophie and Magdeline started sharing the Gospel and discipling children in South Africa. In Magdeline’s words, “I’m old, but I don’t feel old because I work with children.” She finds joy in seeing children’s lives transformed by Jesus.

The Holy Spirit really works through us. Audry took a long bus ride to the northern part of Burundi, Africa, and sat next a woman who introduced herself as Chantal.

Now naturally, the conversation turned to spiritual things, and Audry was able to share with her the Good News of the Gospel. When he started sharing about Jesus, Audry wanted to ask, “Who do you think Jesus is?” ...but he had forgotten her name! The Holy Spirit prompted him to call her Yvonne. She replied, “Wow! How do you know my real name?” She had told Audry a false one because, at first, she didn’t want to talk to him. She said, “The fact that you know my real name means that the One leading you is above all things.” She listened eagerly to the rest of the Gospel and received Jesus as her Savior. She said,

“Now, I know that God loves me. Even the things that I tried to hide, they’re known by Him.” You know, you can learn how to share the Gospel too by visiting our website at share life dot today.

As we continue sharing what God is doing around Africa; I want to share with you an inspiring story from Uganda. Denis took a team that he was discipling to a football field for what we call “On The Job training.”

They saw someone seated dangerously on a cliff at the edge of the field. If the man wasn’t careful, he would fall and get hurt. Denis and his team approached the young man whose name was Jonathan. He’d lost his job two weeks back and was desperate and depressed about his situation. That morning, Jonathan prayed for God to show him the way, even though he had never prayed before and didn’t know God. But he had heard that when you pray, God answers. So Jonathan told Denis, “Share your message with me!” After they told him the Gospel, Jonathan committed his life to Jesus.

Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”

This famous passage from Matthew nineteen shows us Jesus' heart—God loves the little children of the world. And He wants to have a personal relationship with them! Something I prayed over my own children is that they would know the Lord at the earliest possible age. And, you know,we have an opportunity in our communities and our families to share the hope found in Christ with our children. In Africa, we’ve been doing this through a program called Hope for Kids. Children are learning the key points of the Gospel,and they’re giving their hearts to Jesus. They also are learning how they can clearly share it with their friends as well!

And last year, we saw over eight million children hear the Good News of the Gospel. Learn more about how you can share your faith at share life dot today.

There are exciting things happening in Africa. Just this past year through evangelism training events, we saw over twenty million people make professions of faith in Jesus.

And that happened through over one million believers learning how to share their faith—both adults and children. These Christians were in churches, schools, and even prisons; and they began to share the Gospel and reach their communities for Jesus. You want to make a Christian dangerous to the enemy? Well, teach them how to share the Good News! The Bible says that the gates of Hell will not prevail against Christ's church.

Let's do the same as our brothers-and sisters-in-Christ—let's take the Good News of what Jesus has done on the cross to our communities. Not sure where to start? Well, we'd love to help. Visit our website at sharelifeafrica.org

Psalm thirty-six five(36:5)tells us, “Your steadfast love, O LORD, extends to the heavens, your faithfulness to the clouds.” It’s so true—God is faithful. And I love telling other people about how faithful He has been to me. It reminds me of the passage in Joshua 4, where the Israelites cross over the Jordan River.

When God parted the waters, Joshua commanded one man from each of the twelve tribes to pick up a stone from the bottom of the river. On the other side, they piled those stones up as a monument to God’s faithfulness in preparing a way for them through the Jordan. As forgetful people, we need to do the same. We need to inscribe on our hearts the acts of faithfulness God has done in our lives and boldly share them with others.

God can and will use them to open spiritual conversations where we can share the Gospel. Visit whatsmystory.org to use our free online testimony builder.

What have you seen God do in your life? The truth is, we all have hundreds of what we like to call “God stories.” These are times you’ve experienced God moving in your life, like the moment you put your saving faith in Jesus or a change He’s brought about, an answered prayer, a restored relationship.

When sharing one of your “God stories” with another person, make the contrast for them. Start with what life was like before the change or before God stepped in. Then, share what God did. End your testimony with something about the confidence you have concerning Heaven and eternal life. An example would be something like, “The greatest thing about all of this is that I know for sure that if I died today, I’m going to Heaven.”

This leads very naturally to asking them questions about their own spiritual life and sharing the Gospel with them! Visit whatsmystory.org to use our free online testimony builder.

In a culture that combats finding what is true and what is a lie, people now more than ever are looking for genuine, authentic relationships. They want to hear the truth. And when it comes to sharing our testimonies, it’s important to remember to be genuine and vulnerable while telling others our story, of how God saved us through Jesus Christ. God may have you sharing with a Divine Appointment—a person He has drawn to you to hear your story for a purpose. It could be that the same struggles or hurt you have faced they are facing now. It could be the very things God has redeemed in your life they are dealing with in their own life.

Make sure to ask the Holy Spirit to guide your conversation about what you should share, and be open and truthful with what God has done in your life. Not sure how to share your testimony? Visit whatsmystory.org to use our free online testimony builder.
