Sharing your faith to others is a calling, Jesus Called you to share your faith.
Jesus first command is found in Mark 1:17-18 to the calling of his first disciples and he said to them, "come follow me, Jesus said and I will make you fishers of men" and at once they left their nets and followed him. His last command is found in Acts 1:7-8 where He said to His disciples, "... it is not for you to know the times or dates the father has set by his own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, an in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."
See, from what we read in the Scripture, God called people to follow Him and they obeyed Him. and the great thing is that we are not alone. we have God in us who will teach us and guide us in all things. Remember, you are not alone.
These are the examples of the early Church who were called and obeyed their calling;
Acts 8:4, "Those who had been scattered preached the word wherever they went."
Acts 2:47b, "And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved."
Acts 4:4, "but many who heard the message believed, and the number of men grew to about five thousand."
Acts 5:14, "nevertheless, more and more men and women believed in the Lord and were added to their number."
Acts 6:7, "so the word of God spread. The number of Disciples in Jerusalem increased rapidly, and a large number of Priest became obedient to the faith."
Jesus Wants you!
Jesus wants you to share your faith to others because Jesus desires all men to be saved. Because He doesn't want that men will perish but will have everlasting life in Him.
Jesus can use Angels and other of His creations, but He chose you, what a privilege that we, a sinner saved by grace will have the opportunity to be part in the expansion of God's Kingdom.
Think of this, Jesus bought you with a price, it cost His life. He suffered on the cross for you and for me and yet He endured to the end. His blood was shed for you, He paid the penalty of our sin in full. We are the reason why He suffered and died. And because of what Jesus did on the cross, we are now reconciled back to the Father when we accepted Jesus as our personal Lord and Savior of our life. and now we can access God freely through Him because we are in Him.
We should be the one to be punished, we should be the one to receive the wrath of God but because of His great love, He poured His wrath on His Son. His only and beloved Son.
Therefore, through the sharing of our faith, we are showing our love to God, because we obeyed His command.
If you do that, God will surely reward you because he will be pleased of you.
