“Passing on the key for Christ”

God has purposely placed each of us into personal relationships with people He desires. Who has God brought to you where you have a unique opportunity and relationship to offer the keys to the greatest gift ever - eternal life in heaven? Did you know that you can become a part of God's family by grace through faith? Sometimes we hold on to the key in fear of getting out there, fear of being embarrassed, and fear of being pushed away. There are so many reasons we haven’t passed the key for Jesus around, and fear is the number one reason. Are you scared of being ridiculed?


Passing out keys starts with being prepared, being ready to witness to others, being and evangelist for the Lord. However to be able to be an evangelist we have to be willing to earn our own key, we must work diligently for our Savior, have faith, trust, and never underestimate God’s love for us. Passing on what we have learned about God is a good starting place, teaching those around us about the power of prayer that in itself is a big key.

1 Peter 3:14-16 (King James Version) 14But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled; 15But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: 16Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.

We should pray that all Christians become passers of the key of Christ, ready to spread Gods good news, ready to show others in our actions what God has done for us from the moment He walked this earth, till He walked his final steps to the Cross and gave His life for us. Jesus passed the key for His Father, He taught us right from wrong, He gave us forgiveness and understanding, He showed us how we too have to trust our Heavenly Father. Jesus walked this earth and passed out many keys so that we might know Heaven is awaiting us. Now it is up to you to take that walk of faith and start passing out keys to knowing Christ. Take time and get prepared, then go witness to others. God will be with you every step of the way. .


Will your keys lead to Christ?
