SOUL DEVELOPMENT

NOVEMBER 5, 2025

And they that be wise shall shine as the

brightness of the firmament; and they

that turn many to righteousness as the

stars for ever and ever (Daniel 12:3).

I recall someone asking me many years ago, “What

job do you do?” Very quickly, I answered, "I'm into

soul development." He was startled and didn't know what

that meant. But that term, "soul development", is exactly

what we do. As a Christian, especially a soul winner, don't

ever let anyone talk you down or suggest you're without

a job.

You're doing the greatest, most important work in the

world: turning men from darkness to light and training

them in righteousness. That's the true meaning of soul

development. The Bible says, "They that turn many to

righteousness shall shine as the stars forever" (Daniel

12:3). Why? Because those you win become trees of

righteousness, which the Bible calls “...the planting of

the LORD, that He might be glorified" (Isaiah 61:3).

There are all kinds of trees, but when you win souls to

Christ, you raise trees of righteousness. This is why our

work is so glorious. It's divine! There's no higher calling.

God's number one job is soul winning. That's why He sent

the Lord Jesus. The Bible says, "For God so loved the

world that he gave his only begotten Son..." (John 3:16).

He gave His best to win the whole world.

Always think and strategize with the Spirit on what

more you can do with regard to soul winning. Your daily

passion and pursuit should be about how else you can

reach more souls. Everything you do, your excellence,

ideas and innovations should revolve around this one thing:

soul development. This is your calling, your purpose, and

your ministry. Praise God!

PRAYER

Dear Father, thank you for the extraordinary blessing

of making me a soul winner. I carry myself with dignity

and excellence, representing Christ in every place. Your

wisdom flows through me, and your glory radiates from

my life as I minister the Gospel and lead sinners out of

darkness into the glorious liberty of the sons of God, in

Jesus’ Name. Amen.
