If you are going to have<br>any influence in other&#8217;s lives, you must first win their heart. A<br>well-known sentiment states, People don&#8217;t care what you<br>know, until they know how much you care! Solomon said,<br>&#8220;My son, give me thine heart.<br>Look at the life of Absalom as he stole the hearts of the<br>men of Israel. In II Samuel 15:1-6, Absalom stole men&#8217;s heart<br>with evil intent; however, we can ask God to help us win hearts<br>that we might influence them for the Lord ..<br>First, we see Absalom&#8217;s AIM! &#8220;And Absalom rose up<br>early, and stood beside the way of the gate.&#8221;<br>Second, we see Absalom&#8217;s ATTENTION! &#8220;And it was so,<br>that when any man that had a controversy came to the king for<br>judgment, then Absalom called unto him, and said, Of what<br>city art thou?&#8221; Everyone spells love the same way: T.I.M.E.<br>Third, he was APPROVING. Verse 3 says, &#8220;See, thy<br>matters are good and right.&#8221;<br>Fourth, winning hearts consists of being ACCESSIBLE.<br>Sly Absalom opined, &#8220;Oh that I were made judge in the land,<br>that every man which hath any suit or cause might come to me,<br>and I would do him justice!&#8221; (vs.4).<br>You can have influence in a young person&#8217;s life long after<br>he has left your home, Sunday school class or youth group, if<br>you learn how to win a heart for God. The influence you will<br>have is effective when you win a heart. &#8211; C.B.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prepared by Roger Fulk, from excerpts from the \u201cBaptist Bread\u201d November 21, 2024, devotional by author  ALEB BOTTRELL, Pastor, Hunt Valley Baptist Church, Hunt Valley, MD.
