ALMOST

“King Agrippa, believest thou the prophets?  I know that thou believest.  Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian.”
Acts 26:27,28 KJV

Every time I read this, it breaks my heart and I believe it broke Paul’s heart when King Agrippa said “Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian”.  It is so important for Christians to act and talk like Christians.  If people don’t see the difference Jesus has made in our heart, they aren’t going to want Jesus in their heart.

“Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity” (1 Timothy 4:12).  May God help us to be an example of the believers in everything we say and everything we do.  People are watching Christians to see if there is a difference in them.

Are you almost persuaded to be a Christian?  If you haven’t invited Jesus into your heart to be your personal Saviour, I urge you, I plead with you to say yes to Jesus before it is too late.  Your family and friends can’t do it for you as much as they want to.  Salvation is personal between you and Jesus.

Heavenly Father, I pray for every person who hasn’t said yes to Jesus and invited Him into their heart.  May today be the day they humble themselves and give their heart and life to Him.  Please help us to set the example that we as believers should set.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
