The Difference Between Life and Death is the Ministry of Jesus Christ.

Psalm 34:21
Evil brings death to the wicked, and those who hate the righteous will be condemned.

 
The mercy and saving grace of the LORD is for those who do not know the LORD and those who have not yet received the LORD. Mercy and saving grace are also for those in the family of God. I am grateful for this! Romans 6:23 says, “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” When one engages in sin, they will experience death according to scripture. I know the serpent said to Eve, “you will not surely die,” however death did come. Many influences in life try to persuade us that death will not surely come as a result of practicing evil, but the truth must be made known. The truth is that spiritual and physical death occurs as a result of sin.  

My reflection on this truth surfaces the fact that I have not been as diligent as I can be in spreading the gospel to win souls in response to this passage of Scripture. 
I know that my salvation is not just for me, but I have an eschatological call on my life to leave a legacy and to win souls to the kingdom of God. I believe there is yet still a work that needs to be done in my heart that will cause me to seek every opportunity that is before me to compel men, women, boys, and girls to receive Jesus Christ as LORD and Savior. I do not want my evangelism to be weak or mainstream. I desire to be effective in ministry with miracles, signs, and wonders along with sound doctrine. I want to be able to disciple people who will reproduce reproducers that will reproduce. I am compelled to add this to my devotion time with the LORD. Further, I need to be intentional everyday to reach out to someone and share the gospel.

I know this passage of Scripture is clear regarding the judgement that the wicked will receive. However, for me I am receiving this Scripture as a directive to be the hands and feet of Jesus Christ to minister to a broken and dying world. This Scripture reveals to heal. It is not the will of God that any should perish, but that all would come to salvation (2 Peter 3:9). My heart aches for every soul that I failed to minister to when I was prompted by Holy Spirit to do so.  to know that God promptly sent another when I failed to do my part. GOD IS FAITHFUL. I am grateful for Gods mercy and longsuffering with me! I desire to do better and be a better representative for Jesus Christ by the grace of God.  

Prayer:
Almighty God, I come in the Name of the LORD Jesus Christ. I thank You for Your mercy and truth. You are so longsuffering and kind. You are gracious and good. I ask You to forgive me for being so focused on my own needs at the expense of helping someone else. Forgive me for not showing others love, giving a hug, sharing an encouraging word, or prophesying to build someone else up. I know You do not want anybody to perish. I know that You desire the Body of Christ to function as Your vice regents in the earth. I pray that I would have Your heart for those that You allow me to meet. Holy Spirit, I want to be sensitive to Your promptings and obedient to follow through. I thank You that You are always ready to partner with me and Your Church to save souls in the earth. Help me and my brothers and sisters in Christ to get over fear or rejection or harm by receiving Your perfecting love. These and all blessings I receive in Jesus’s Name. Amen.
