Present your body as a living sacrifice
Romans 12:1
I beseech you therefore, brethren, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, which is holy and acceptable to God
To present your body as a living sacrifice as the verse above says is to be at God’s disposal. To be willing and obedient to obey His commands and to do whatever He asks.
To sacrifice is to give up something of value for another more important cause. A perfect example is Jesus giving or sacrificing His life to save us from sin and the grip of the evil one.
The bible says in 2 Samuel 24:24 that
I will not give unto God a sacrifice that will not cost me
Sleep is good but sometimes you have to give up your sleep to study the word and pray for yourself and a friend in need
As a student, worker and ambassador of Christ learn to sacrifice some of your time and resources to save lost souls.
Scripture also says those who harvest souls for the kingdom of God will be greatly rewarded
God be with you
Suggestions for success
1. Do some brain storming to identify things you can do while you perform your duties each day to spread the gospel
2. For example you can buy lunch for a friend and present the gospel as you chat and eat your food
Prayer
Let this hymn be your prayer
Take my life and let it be
Consecrated, Lord to thee
Take my moments and my days
Let them flow
With ceaseless praise
Amen
