Let's not be selfish and keep the word to ourselves. Let's not get lazy and fat on knowledge. Social media can be such a powerful tool for evangelism. You can reach your friends and family no matter where they are. You don't have to personally be face to face in order to share your faith with them.
Do any of your friends and family actually know your a follower of Christ? Ask yourself this and be honest with yourself. If the answer is no, then there is still time to turn from your ways and do the God pleasing thing.
Scenario: If the only way to prove your faith to the world was by what you posted on your timeline, would people be able to point out that you're a follower of Christ? Examine yourself.
I'm not condemning anyone, I'm trying to STIR SOMETHING IN YOU. I am trying to encourage you to do good works, the works the Lord had ordained for you since before the foundation of the earth was laid.
If your call is to be an evangelist but it scares you, there is hope. The fear is a spiritual attack on you to petrify you with fear so you don't say a word about Jesus. The Bible says that God has not given us a spirit of fear; but has given us a spirit of love, power, and a sound mind. The word of God and prayer are your tools and weapons to combat the attacks of the enemy. You have to read and study the word of God. Study so that you show yourself approved by God Himself.
God has called you to mature in your calling. Take baby steps. Start by sharing Bible verses, videos on Facebook, Instagram and YouTube. You may loose some followers along the way, but the closer you get to the cross, the less people will want to be around you. As Jesus approached closer to the cross, the less followers He had. Only John the Apostle was there. The other disciples and followers left Jesus.
You will have seasons where you are on fire and the word is flowing out of you like a strong river. Then there will be season where you feel dry and dead and you have no desire to even click SHARE on a post on Facebook. But we must always be ready to give an account for the reason we believe in Jesus.
