Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
We are God chief executive marketer; the first job that Jesus Christ committed into our hand is a marketing job. One skill that is very important for our success in life is marketing skill; no matter how good your product is, nobody will know about it until you get it out to the public. For a product to do well it needs to be in circulation and that is exactly what Jesus Christ instructed us to do; he said we should go into the world and spread the gospel of good news. I used to say that i don´t want to engage in marketing, but my Boss who is also my chief trainer explain to me what marketing actually contains and said everyone of us is a marketer whether you like it or not but it all depends on what you are marketing; you are either marketing yourself or another product; one thing you cannot deny is that you are constantly marketing yourself as a product. He further says, but Nene, the way you market Jesus so well if you can market our product like this; we would sell everything in one day. He further says that in marketing you have to believe in the product that you are selling before you can make sales. His explanation glading my heart and it encourages me to keep marketing Jesus to people; it is a confirmation of my belief in Christ and what he represents. Did I believe in our company's product, of course I do; but one thing is more important which is, seeking the kingdom of my dear God first and every other thing shall be added unto me (Matthew 6:33). Your success in this job as a marketer depends on your belief; if you don 't believe in yourself as a person, it will be difficult for you to convince others to believe in you. You can see why Satan is busy discouraging people from believing in Christ; he has created so many avenues in which he uses to turn people's hearts away from God and one of them is doubt. Jesus Christ marketed himself to the Samaritan woman, she bought the product and went to the city to call others to do the same. John 4:39 (And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did. 41 And many more believed because of his own word; 42 And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world). In this job of marketing our testimony is our proof that the product works. The first step to get enroll as a marketing executive in the kingdom of God is salvation; you need to believe in the product, buy the product, use the product and then begin to testify of the product to others; and get them interested in the product and then you will be qualified for your commissions, wages and other fridge benefit that comes with it. John 4:36 (And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together). It is a full time job with a lot of benefits to show. One may ask, Nene, what exactly are we marketing? We need to understand what marketing is all about; our success in this business depends on the level of our understanding because it is to us according to the level of our understanding. Marketing is an act of promoting one's goods and services in order to get people interested with the aim of making sales and profit; it is all about buying and selling. Our product is very simple and straightforward; we are marketing Jesus Christ and his gift to humanity which is eternal life. It is free and the only requirement is for you to believe that God has sent him to save you from your sin and from bondage of satan. He took away your sins and every other thing that limits you in exchange for eternal life and freedom.
John 3:14 (And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: 15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved). As God chief executive marketer our job is to educate people about the exchange that Jesus Christ has done for them; they need to know that he has taken away their sin by taking their place and the only way to enjoy it and enter into the freedom that Jesus has provided for them is to believe in him. It is very simple, all you need to do to have eternal life is to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and saviour; doing that shows that you acknowledge his sacrifice. We are marketing eternal life to people and in order to get them interested we need to demonstrate to them what it means to have eternal life and live a life of freedom. And that is exactly what Jesus came to do; He went about doing good; He healed the sick, set the captive free and did so many miracles. Acts 10:38 (How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him). The world is full of evil and it takes good deeds to counter evil and render the devil jobless. In this transaction, your currency is your faith; Jesus Christ did everything for free and we are required to do the same thing as we go about marketing him. Matthew 10:8 (Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give). The Samaritan woman became a star by marketing Jesus; her story changed dramatically the moment she believed that Jesus Christ is the saviour of the world. Friends, in case you have not believed, please do by praying this simple salvation prayer below and become an instant disciple of Christ today; and if you have already believed but have not yet begun your marketing job please do and receive your wages that await you in Jesus name.
Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen
NENE ISAH,
