Many in this city

"One night the Lod spoke to Paul in a vision and told him, "Don't be afraid! Speak out! Don't be silent! For I am with you, and no one will attack and harm you, for many people in this city belong to me." [Acts 18:8]

Just a thought, but would your willingness to share the gospel change if God told you that "many people in this city belong to me?" Meaning, they're people very close to you that are lost this very moment whom God has chosen, but since they have yet to hear the gospel, to repent, and to believe in Jesus Christ, they are still living under Satan's rulership, oppressed by sin and all the guilt that comes along with it. God chooses people in the most unlikely places. Corinth was definitely one during Paul's day, but what about your city, or even work? God's work of redemption will continue until Christ returns, so let us "go and make disciples of all nations," because "The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few."

*[Matt 28, Matt 9]
