So That You Will Have The Right Response For Everyone


How are we to proclaim God to others?

First, the Bible says we are to live wisely among those who are not believers. In other words, our minds are to be transformed by God's Word and His Holy Spirit, because only then will we have the discernment to properly judge what is true and right.

Second, we are to make the most of every opportunity God gives us to share His love with others. Our eyes are to be opened to see others' needs, and our ears are to be tuned to hear God's voice.

Third, our conversations with others are to always be gracious and attractive so that we will have the right responses for everyone. Our tongues are to be used to represent God's character.

"Live wisely among those
who are not believers,
and make the most of
every opportunity.
Let your conversation
be gracious and attractive
so that you will have
the right response for everyone."
Colossians 4:5-6 (NLT)

We need to live wisely, make the most of every opportunity, and converse graciously, because only then can we be productive in reaching the lost souls in this world for the Lord Jesus Christ.
