Evangelism is a spiritual battle. If you would rescue the sinner out of the strong man’s bondage, you must first bind the demons that have kept that fellow or community in captivity first, then frustrate all their activities and plans to keep the person or community captive for life.
That way, the coast would be clear for you to rescue them from the hands of the devil.
Unfortunately, many people go on evangelism without any preparation. They take secular assignments more seriously than the ones most important to God. There are certain things you need to do before you go out on evangelism for it not to become a futile exercise.
First, you must ensure that you spend quality time in prayers, soaking in the Holy Spirit.
After intense prayers and the infilling of the Holy Spirit, when you speak to sinners, your words will come out like fire and many souls will be won to0 Christ-like it happened for Peter on the day of Pentecost.
During this period it is intimacy with God, boldness to preach is developed.
Peter was a very timid man; he even denied knowing Jesus when a young girl identified him as His disciple, but after spending time in the upper room, he was facing rulers of the land and telling them boldly that he would not stop preaching the gospel.
