Grocery Basket Evangelism

Here I Am, Send Me! (below)

Quick stories, examples of evangelism, Gospel communication encouragement.

“The Truth needs to be proclaimed, yes even at the grocery store. I had an amazing interaction Sunday at the store, and I’ve asked the Lord to use me whenever and wherever He can. I was telling the cashier I was short on money, and had to put something back. I know he is a Christian, so I said, ‘I’m one of the richest people on earth, so don’t let it fool you.’ Then a customer in line asked, ‘Can I have your number?’ My reply: ‘I am a Christian who is a member of the wealthiest family on earth. We have room for you if you care to join us!’ Of course everyone in line heard me, and I’m positive Doug the cashier was sooooooo pleased with my open invitation to several people that day!” Jaye

UPDATE: Recently, earlier in the morning, I prayed that God would use His people, including myself. More grocery store evangelism. Just a few hours later, after parking at the grocery store, I headed toward the store and an older man handed me his basket. He had an NFL football team’s jacket on and so I asked him about how his team is doing. He lit up and spoke about that team. I simply listened and then, began to minister the Gospel, the Good News of how Jesus came to the earth to die on the cross for our sins and how He calls us to admit we are sinners and believe upon Him. He was also informed that there are millions in hell right now, who will never escape, because they didn’t stop their life and repent…… God is good saints. Isaiah 55:11

To say that the Great Commission is a big deal with God is a gross understatement. It has no significance with wolves who could care less that Jesus died to save those He commands us to reach. Wolves are consumed with budgets, building, and branding – with nickels, noses, and numbers. Repent now and follow Jesus.

RECENTLY: Once again, as I was leaving the grocery store, headed for my vehicle, a dear lady who was driving into the parking lot, arriving to get groceries, rolled down her window and asked me if she could have my basket. I said sure. Then, to seize this opportunity for Christ, I asked her if she liked reading and she said “Yes.” I then asked if she likes devotional books as I opened the copy of the Moments with Our Master devotional I was handing her, showing her a random day and showing her the format is a one-per-day with Scripture, a little talk about that Bible truth, and a prayer. She loved it and received it gladly. So simple.

“So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.” Isaiah 55:11

RECENTLY: More grocery basket evangelism! Again! I shop for groceries at a store where it takes a quarter to get the basket and then you get the quarter back when returning the basket. So, today I just put the basket back where it belongs and left the 25 cent piece in it as I carried my 2 bags to the vehicle. As I finished putting the bags in the bag of the vehicle, a dear lady brought my quarter to me! Totally kind gesture. I thanked her and as she was walking away I kindly asked her “Mam, do you like to read?” She stopped and gave a resounding “Yes.” So I said “Do you like devotional books? If so, I’d like to give you one if you wish.” And she said “Yes, thank you,” and was very appreciative. As usual I opened it and showed her how it’s just one page daily with a Scripture, a little talk, and a prayer at the end. She loved it! Bam!

Saints, getting people to begin reading the Proverb of the day – there are 31 of them – and/or a Scripture-rich, biblically sound daily devotional is getting people into God’s Word for themselves and is profoundly important, as it begins grounding them in Christ! See 2 Timothy 2:15.

Also, went to a certain store today to pick up their special price ground beef and was able to talk again with the young man behind the counter and sensed a quickening to encourage him to read Psalm 37. He responded favorably and said he’s definitely going to read it.

“Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God.” 2 Corinthians 5:20

You and I are “ambassadors for Christ” and not a political party or movement or anything temporal. Those things are okay yet nothing is more important than the glorious Gospel work of Christ’s “ambassadors” (Matthew 9:35-38; 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-20; Luke 24:47-49; 2 Corinthians 5:20, etc.).

“For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:” Philippians 3:20

Recently, while getting a haircut at a new place, I was able to give the gift of the Moments 365 devotional to the lady (the owner) who cut my hair and the hostess who takes the money. In every scenario I simply ask the person if they like devotional books and they usually say yes. Then I show them a copy and open it for them to see at which time they gladly receive the gift. These are like handing out candy!

Please keep the ministry outreach in prayer. The supply given by God’s people is vital to the requests coming in from Jesus’ laborers both here and abroad! God is able! See 2 Corinthians 9:6-11, etc.

Warned and Safe [podcast]

“By the word of thy lips I have kept me from the paths of the destroyer.” Psalms 17:4

PWT = Preach, WARN, Teach

“Whom we PREACH, WARNING every man, and TEACHING every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:” Colossians 1:28

Did you catch what the apostle Paul did to prepare the church to meet Christ?

Preach
WARN
Teach

Lynne Parker writes:

“I truly believe Christians will be tried by the Word in this hour. There is no more riding the fence or taking a neutral position. God Himself will place us all in a position to stand or fall according to the Word. “Deception” and its sister “delusion” are gripping the Body of Christ – like a dark cloud it is covering the land. The false dominion (NAR) theology and signs and wonders movement has effectively conditioned multitudes to forsake the authority of God’s Word and embrace their subjective feelings as guidance in discernment concerns. But in these latter days only those who divorce their feelings and trust only in God’s Word and have developed a love for the truth will overcome the devil’s schemes. Sadly many will be lost – it’s unfolding right before us.”

"Adorn the Doctrine of God" [podcast]

“Exhort servants (employees, slaves) to be obedient unto their own masters (bosses), and to please them well in all things; not answering again; 10 Not purloining, but shewing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things.” Titus 2:9-10 The context of the above passage is instructions to all Christian “servants” (employees) and how they can be Christ’s witnesses among those they work with, including their “master” (boss, owner, etc.). “2:10 One of the most obvious differences was that Christians did not succumb to the besetting sin of other slaves, namely, pilfering. The […]

"Warn them from Me": The 3 Things Paul did to Protect God's People [podcast]

The 3 Things Paul did to Protect God’s People [podcast] Jesus and His holy apostles often rebuked and exposed false leaders and false doctrine (Matthew 23; Acts 13:10; 20:29-31; Galatians 5:11-12; 2 Timothy 4:2-4; 2 Peter 2; 2 John 7-11; Revelation 2:6, 15, etc.). Therefore we know that part of following Jesus includes doing the same. In fact, the body of Christ is mandated to do just that (Romans 16:17-18; Philippians 1:17; Jude 3-4). PWT = Preach, WARN, Teach “Whom we PREACH, WARNING every man, and TEACHING every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in […]

The Purpose of Elders in Christ's Body [podcast]

There is no more important work transpiring in the earth today than the work of the Gospel of Jesus Christ (Matthew 9:35-38; 28:18-20; Ephesians 4:11-15; 1 Peter 5:1-6, etc.). “Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, 21 Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.” Hebrews 13:20-21 In short, the authentic under-shepherd ordained of Jesus […]

Teach the Bible [podcast]

JESUS IS COMING AND THE TRUE BODY OF CHRIST IS “HOLDING FORTH (BOLDLY DECLARING) THE WORD OF LIFE”

“Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.” Philippians 2:16

WHEN you speak God’s Word, you are speaking divine authority.

“These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.” Titus 2:15

“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” Matthew 28:18-20

“That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.” Philemon 1:6

“Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.” Jeremiah 15:16

Nourishing the Body of Christ

“If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.” 1 Timothy 4:6

“All the days of the afflicted are evil: but he that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast.” Proverbs 15:15

The best way to learn is to teach.

HOW well do you know your way around in God’s Word?

Jesus knew His way around God’s Word. Do you? If not, why not?

“And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he FOUND the place where it was written,” Luke 4:17

The disciple of Christ must daily and diligently search, study, and learn God’s Word in light of His Great Commission command to us to teach His Word to others (Matthew 28:18-20). Our ability to minister is in large part based on our knowledge of God’s Word or the ability to navigate God’s Word (King James Bible).

MAKE THE DIFFERENCE – OBEY GOD, “PREACH THE WORD.” (2 TIMOTHY 4:2)

Tip: Always know WHERE you are reading in God’s Word – chapter and verse. You’ll be surprised at the repertoire that begins to build, making you, like Jesus, a good navigator of our LORD’s Word as you preach His Word (Luke 4:17).

Have you ever pondered why there is little or no Scripture being used when listening to someone pretending to be speaking about the LORD? You should wonder (Matthew 7:16, 20; 1 John 4:1).

“Preach the word” is the divine mandate, command (2 Timothy 4:2).

Let us cease to pretend that we represent the LORD when everything we say isn’t coming straight out of His Word. Read that again please.

“If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles (written Word) of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.” 1 Peter 4:11

Think God is calling you to serve? Good. If He has saved you, He has called you (Ephesians 2:8-10; 4:7). Get lost in His Word every day (Jeremiah 15:16). Read it (Revelation 1:3). Study it (2 Timothy 2:15). Memorize it (Proverbs 4:4). Meditate upon it day and night (Joshua 1:8; Psalm 1). THAT’s your prep for ministry, not going to an antichrist seminary. Jesus inducted you into His school of the Holy Ghost and Word the moment He saved you.

“As I was listening I was thinking of Paul. Who was a very educated man in the law. But after he was saved he spent three years being taught exclusively by the Lord Jesus Himself. And he says he “conferred not with flesh and blood.” But he was taught “by the revelation of Jesus Christ.” (Gal 1:12-18). All of us should be taught by the Lord in His Word and not learned through mere men or books. But by a direct revelation from the Lord Jesus Christ! Jesus is The Word of God (John 1:1, Rev 19:13).” Karen Cochran

"Give us this DAY, our DAILY bread" [podcast]

QUESTION ASKED: “Please provide scripture to support your statement that ‘if you aren’t in the word daily you are backslidden and not ready to meet Jesus’?” I am a follower of Christ and have extensively studied the Word. Please provide specific scripture that says if you don’t read the Bible every day you are backslidden and not ready to meet Jesus.” REPLY: The word “daily” appears 7 times in the Gospels directly spoken by or speaking of our LORD Jesus. “Daily” is found 63 times in God’s Word. You are fooling no one except yourself to say that seeking, walking […]

"Be Diligent that ye May be Found of Him in Peace, without Spot, and Blameless" [podcast]

“Them that look for him” “So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.” Hebrews 9:28 WHO will Jesus return for? – “Them that look for him” Jesus is not coming back for everyone. He’s only coming back for “Them that look for him.” Am I in love with Jesus? Or, am I just religious? Am I an authentic disciple of Jesus or a self-serving counterfeit? The grace-enabled purifying of ourselves in light of His soon return: “And every man that […]
