DRAW MEN

DAILY GRACE
FRI.29TH JULY, 2016
TOPIC: DRAW MEN
TEXT: JOHN 12: 32

Welcome to the last weekend of this seventh month, God of all grace shall preserve you and your household from falling into the deep pit of enemies in Jesus' name.
The expectation of God from you as you live daily is to influence lives for for Jesus Christ.
From the text above, Jesus Christ said, "if I be lifted up from the earth, I will draw all men unto Myself".
Not few men, but all people. The great design of our Lord Jesus, which was to draw all men to him, not the Jews only, who had been long in a profession a people near to God, but the Gentiles also, who had been afar off. For He was to be the desire of all nations (Hag. 2:7)and to Him must the gathering of His people be. That which His enemies dreaded was that the whole world would go after Him, and He would draw them to Himself.
 Notwithstanding their opposition,
Christ Himself is all in all in the conversion of a soul.
Firstly, It is Christ that draws, "I will draw".
It is sometimes ascribed to the Father (John 6:44), but here to the Son, who is the arm of the Lord.
He does not drive by force, but draws with the cords of a man (Hos. 11:4; Jer. 31:3), draws as the loadstone, the soul is made willing in the day of HIS power. 
     Secondly, It is to Christ that we are drawn: “I will draw them to me as the centre of their unity.” The soul that was at a distance from Christ is brought into an acquaintance with Him, he that was shy and distrustful of Him is brought to love Him and trust in Him-drawn up to His terms, into His arms. Christ Jesus is still in the business of saving souls and He would draw men’s hearts to Himself.
Friends, we need to understand the heartbeat of Christ daily as a true church. He has not sent us to draw men to our church doctrines or any personalities but solely to Him, the head of the Church. May God grant you understand in Jesus' name.
Enjoy your day!

    
Personal confession: l receive the power and the grace to draw people to Christ Jesus in the name of Jesus.

 Read, Reflect and
Rebroadcast to bless someone. God will bless you in return.
