When God providentially empowers you to touch a life in which He is already working (Providence/Evidence)
You know it when:
- You enter a situation and it is obvious that God has been at work before you get there
- The person to whom you are talking to tells you that someone else had been talking to him about the Lord
- See obvious interest and/or conviction
- The Lord leads you to say something you normally don’t say
- A lost person approaches a Christian out of the blue
- The timing of events is obviously from God
- The person to whom you are talking is dealing with a traumatic event that has pointed him to his inner needs
- A guest comes to your church without a human invitation
- Someone brings up the Bible, religion, God, or spiritual things in a normal conversation
