Some Attributes of a good Evangelist:
***Giving and seed sowing
***Patience

***Prayer.
Giving / seed sowing: we are talking about giving to finance the gospel, giving to save a dying soul etc as an evangelist of tight schedule( having no time to go out to preach) there are several means to preach the gospel, you can help with your materials possessions. It could be money,vehicle for movement,paying for all the flight ticket the man of God will need for that year if possible,building a church,buying crusades equipment etc when you do so you are a partaker of that evangelism.you should understand that wining souls for God wins his heart for you.also Sow into the life of those ahead of you in other to tap into a higher grace dimension.
Word Addict: As an evangelist or a Christian, you are to give your self totally to the word of God,let it transform you so you can transform others. As a Christian, we are transformers.it is the volume of the word[bible]of God you have that determines your worth in this world. From the bible,you learn about life challenges and solutions. Note, No body is born with the habit of study the word,you develop it .the word of God you know is what gives you boldness when you stand before the public to declare Jesus. have you read your bible this morning?
prayers[luke 18:1 the lack of a prayer life will make a minister to die untimely even while he is still alive physically. When ever you are out to preach,you must understand that powers of darkness are after you. if you must last and be impactful in this world,you need "PRAYER CHAMBER" How much time do you give to prayers everyday?.
