Share Your 15 Second Testimony - 90 Days of Prayer & Fasting

 







Hello brother and sister village church planters!

I greet you in the name of our Lord Jesus-Christ. I want to speak to you this morning on the '15 Second Testimony.' We can find this topic in the VCP Train and Multiply manual term 1 from page 66-18 to 66-27.

Dear brothers and sisters, many Christians don’t know how to evangelize and how to approach people. Some Christians say that people will not believe in them, some say that they don’t know what to say, some Christians are even ashamed, and these kinds of behaviors slow down the work of God.

Allow me to remind you dear planters, that your '15 Second Testimonies' can shake up many ideas, and also shake up many barriers of unbelief.

What is the 15 Second Testimony?

When you want to use the 15 Second Testimony; you first meet somebody, and greet him, and you say to him: Please can I share a little story with you? Everybody likes stories, they will surely listen to you carefully and then you will say ‘There was a time in my life.'  Every 15 Second Testimony begins with this sentence, "there was a time in my life," then you speak about your life before Jesus, then you say how a friend or a brother spoke to you about Jesus and you received him as your Lord and personal Savior, then you tell him how Jesus changed your life. Please, don’t forget to ask him this question ‘‘Do you have a similar story to share with me?’’

He will surely give an answer, if he says; "Yes," you will know that he is a brother then you will celebrate and Praise God together.

If he says, "No," continue your discussion by asking him, ‘‘Could you allow me to share with you some positive experience of my life that I had with Jesus?’’ If he says, "Yes" then you have the opportunity to once again talk to him about Jesus as Lord and Savior. If he says, "No," please, don’t force him.  Accept his position, accept his decision. Then you can exchange contacts, and you continue praying for him.

This is what a 15 Second Testimony is about. This tool is very effective, it’s so powerful, don’t get tired.

 You have 4 steps to apply when you want to talk about 15 second testimony. 

Step 1: There was a time in my life I was suffering before knowing Jesus Christ. 

Step 2: A friend or a brother of mine talk to me about Jesus. 

Step 3: I have accepted Him as my Lord and my personal Savior. 

This is the transformation that took place in me in life. Today I have peace in my heart.  

step 4: The very important question, do you have a similar story to tell?

May the Lord Bless you dear Church Planters!

-          I’m so glad of your hard work on the field as you find persons of peace and share your 15 second testimony.

May the peace of God be with you. I’m your servant Pastor Douti Claude VCP Director.

Shalom
