Matthew 4:19 “Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of men.”

Many people followed Jesus, but Jesus separated the disciples from the masses. Jesus revealed God’s plan and relayed the important ministry to His disciples. What was the difference between the disciples and the crowds of people? It was a difference in personalization. When disciples correctly know the reason and meaning of the Gospel and find the evangelism that only they can carry out within God’s plan, their own personal evangelism story will result and personalization will begin. Then, what is the first blessing that comes from personalizing evangelism?

1. The blessing that comes from personalizing evangelism is peace

Jesus said that He would give a peace that the world knows not of. He told us not to let our hearts be troubled and not be afraid. This is possible because God is always with us. Because God is with us, everything contains God’s plan, blessings, and answers. The peace that comes from God being with us results in a strength and leisure that does not depend on the situations that arise; also, the plan that God desires is fulfilled. This kind of evangelism is absolutely followed by God’s reward.

2. When personalization takes place, my life is revived

God said that He has a plan for us and that He will bring it to completion.Philippians 1:6 When personalization takes place, my life becomes completely revived and all doors are opened. God is watching over our lives and if we are truly evangelists, we have no need to worry. When my life is revived, doors of answers are opened in all places, we will see the prepared hidden disciples, and we will see the most accurate and guaranteed future.

3. We will receive God’s will and guidance

If you truly know and are led by Jesus Christ,Acts 1:1 the works of God’s kingdom,Acts 1:3 the filling of the Holy Spirit,Acts 1:8 and the guidance of the Holy SpiritActs 1:14 you can stand among the ranks of the evangelist and the workers for world evangelization, which is most pleasing to God. When we pray to surely know God’s plan, we will discover God’s greatest plan and correctly receive His guidance.
