- Pray before you talk to anyone. Clear the spiritual track for success.
- Let the Holy Spirit point out the person to talk to and give you the words to speak.
- Give the person your testimony. Tell them what changed you, not what you think will change them.
- Listen. The person will tell you of their specific needs and you can suggest God’s solutions via scriptures.
- Show that you care. Meet the person’s need if you can. God will show you how, just ask.
- Don’t push. If someone resists, stop talking and pray silently for them.
- If the person still resists, thank them for their time and leave. Then pray for them.
- Pray with the person for salvation and to meet their needs. Let the Holy Spirit guide your prayer.
- Give the person something to read that will explain being Born Again. Invite them to a church service.
- Pray for that person. Ask for protection from the attacks and deception of the enemy.
