Many people will not come to Christ because they hate Him; they won’t come because nobody brought them close enough to see Him. The servant was told to go out into the highways and hedges and compel them to come in. That compelling is not harassment; it is loving insistence. Some souls need a nudge, a ride, a reminder, a “my brother, don’t miss this.” If your invitation is weak, your harvest will be weak. Don’t talk like you are advertising a programme; talk like you are rescuing a man. Some are willing but tired; some are curious but shy; some have been disappointed by religion, and they need to see Jesus through you. Remove obstacles, create access, and bring them within hearing distance of truth. The devil loves delays; don’t help him. Compel them with love, not manipulation; remove excuses and give them a chance at life.
An invitation is powerful because atmosphere helps decision. Many people are held down by bad counsel, wrong information, and invisible oppression; they have built a wall around their heart. When you bring them into a clean, Word-filled atmosphere, the Holy Ghost can do what your arguments cannot do: convict, enlighten, and break resistance. Yet the Great Commission is not “get them to attend”; it is discipleship. Jesus sent us to make disciples, baptizing men into His Lordship and teaching them to observe His words (Matthew 28:19-20 KJV). So, use every channel wisely, but keep the target clear: repentance, faith in Christ, and a new life that can be sustained.
Don’t hide behind “I invited them”; bring Christ plainly and press for a salvation decision. Don’t assume they will figure it out alone.
Now be practical. Pick a name and plan it: invite them, remind them, and if you can, accompany them. Don’t invite and disappear like a careless host. If transport is the issue, solve it; if fear is the issue, pray with them before you step out; if shame is the issue, assure them that Jesus receives people, not perfect outfits. After the meeting, don’t rush off; ask what they heard, answer questions, and press gently for a decision. If they are ready, pray with them immediately; if they are not, keep praying and keep the door open.
THOUGHT TO PONDER: Who am I only “inviting” while God expects me to bring them close enough to hear the gospel? What practical step will I take today: remind, accompany, or follow up: until a decision is made?
PRAYER: Father, give me love and wisdom to compel the lost. Use my invitations and follow-up to bring men to Christ and plant them in Your house, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
