There is a lot to learn from parables, most especially those that emanated from Jesus Christ, King of Kings and Lord of Lords. He is all-knowing.

In the story of the one lost silver coin, the woman searched for it until she found it. The finding ended in joyful celebrations.

Do you know what? Those who did not know about the loss were invited to rejoice with her. Those people who heard but did not join in the search for the lost coin were invited to celebrate with her. No record of any contribution from any quarters in respect of the search but people were available to rejoice and celebrate with her.

Do you know that the Angels of God are ready to rejoice with you over a sinner who repents? The lost person in the house of the Lord must not only be searched for but he must be diligently searched for UNTIL he is found and saved. This will prevent you from being guilty of blood.

He may be an assembly member or a companion with whom you enter into the house of the Lord. Share the Word everywhere. Sometimes, it will be with tolerance as long as it may last. When you feel that your strength is failing you, seek the help of the Holy Spirit Who will energize you.

Let it be stated here that it is not everyone who is a "lost coin" precious in the hands of the Lord. Certain people are agents of darkness ready to steal, kill, and destroy, (John 10:10. Do not allow such people to have an inroad into your life in the name of tolerance or trying to save him. Work with the Spirit of God in you. Remember that it is only those who are led by the Spirit of God that are His own, Romans 8:14.

Therefore, if you are shown a lost person in the house of the Lord, do all within your means to seek and save him for as long as it takes you UNTIL you can invite others to rejoice with you, most importantly, the Angels of God. Remember, "But the one who endures to the end will be saved." Matthew 24:13. Stay blessed and prepared for the imminent coming of the Lord.
