How to spread God’s word is a question that can be difficult sometimes if we don‘t have the true understanding of how we as Christians should go about it. Keep in mind what Paul said, “I will not …speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me.” Paul didn’t place glory in what Christ had done for him, but in what Christ was doing through him. Now did you get the understanding of that?

Matthew 17:2-3 tells the story of the day that Jesus took his disciples to the top of the mountain where he was transfigured before them: “His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light. And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him.” Peter was so caught up in this spectacular event that he wanted them all to stay there. In verse 4 of the same chapter he says “Lord it is good for us to be here; if You wish, let us make here three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”

As you read further into the chapter, you can see that Jesus thought it more important to continue ministering and spreading His Word. Verse 14 begins the story of the demon possessed boy who suffered severe seizures that Jesus healed. The message we can take from this story is that there are definitely rewarding experiences when following Jesus’ teachings but you’ll never reap those rewards if you don’t put the work in and focus on the goal at hand, which is spreading the Word of God to everyone.

Now we all know, as followers of our Lord Jesus Christ that it is a great thing to have such a spectacular experience with our God and Father; but we also know that as followers of our Lord we can’t stay there. We have a lot of work to do if we are going to follow in his footsteps, and we as Christians have been called to do it.

Now that we know our Lord works through us, we have become God’s vessels by means of Paul’s statement and it’s time for us to open up our hearts and start spreading the word to others as those who approach us with God’s word. Now that our lives were saved through Jesus Christ through the use of God’s vessels we have become God’s vessels. Now that we are God’s vessels, is it not our duty to spread the word as those who approach us?

Take notice how Jesus’ disciples followed him throughout his ministry and they all had a different point of view yet at the same time leading to God’s message. Their story varied a little bit, but when you read all their stories, you’ll discover that one story will help you to better understand the other. It is the same as when your reading passages in the Bible, one passage will help you to understand the other.

You see brothers and sisters, we are all unique individuals and we all have our own way of relating God’s message. Since we are all unique in our own way, we are given a different point of view on scriptures. Now, because of our uniqueness, one individual will find passages that will lead to the understanding of another passage where another individual may be having a difficult time with that passage and that is where you come in.

The point I am trying to get across is this, we all have a knowledge of certain scriptures that can help others and at the same time others have knowledge of scriptures that can help us. Why is it like that? You will find that a lot of us have our special books in the Bible that we keep going back to over and over again and after a wile you start to specialize in that book. Because now you start focusing whenever you hear someone giving their point of view of scriptures that relate to that book, then in turn , you go back and check it out, therefore giving you a better understanding. Therefore, by us all working together this will lead us to the true understanding of Gods knowledge and help us to grow stronger in God’s word and at the same time we are showing others how to spread God’s word.

Now that we are doing our part in spreading the word and giving people a better understanding of Gods knowledge, we are helping them to grow stronger. This is because they can now see all the great and true benefits as a result of following our Lord Jesus Christ. As they keep growing stronger in God’s knowledge by Christ working through us (God’s vessels) it won’t be long before they to will start spreading God’s word (and this would be a good thing in God’s eyes.)

Now let us look at this to get the full understanding of what we are accomplishing by taking our part in spreading the word.

1. By us doing our part in spreading the word and opening up our hearts and allowing Jesus Christ our lord and Savoir to work through us, there are a lot of lives being saved just as we have been saved.

2. Through us spreading out our knowledge that we specialize in, you never know who will come across it and cause them to do a farther investigation and at the same time the Holy Spirit is pressing down on them.

3. Doing what we are supposed to be doing through passing along what we have learned so that others may also have this golden opportunity.

4. By us doing our part in spreading the word, we are not only doing our part, we are also showing others how to spread Gods word. Now stop and think for a moment and give this some serious thought. By us doing our part through showing others how to spread Gods word, if you use your imagination you will see how far this will branch out and it started from you.

What is imagination? Ability to visualize: the ability to form images and ideas in the mind, especially of things never seen or experienced directly. Does that sound familiar to you?

If it is in your heart to spread the word and you don’t know how to spread God’s word and want to reach out to many, than give the internet some serious thought by using it as your vehicle. Blogging ,writing articles, start an email newsletter, build a Christian website, these are all good ways to get the word out. And the best part about using these tools is that you can find them on the internet for free to low cost.
