Sure, here's a devotion about the importance of spreading the gospel, using the story of Watchman Nee:

The story of Watchman Nee's conversion to Christianity is a powerful reminder of the importance of spreading the gospel. Nee was born in China in 1903 and grew up in a family that practiced traditional Chinese religion. However, when he was a teenager, he heard the preaching of British missionaries and was deeply moved by their message of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ.

Nee's conversion to Christianity was a turning point in his life, and he went on to become a prominent leader in the Chinese house church movement. His teachings and writings have inspired and influenced countless Christians around the world.

The story of Watchman Nee reminds us that the gospel is a message of hope and salvation that needs to be shared with others. As followers of Jesus Christ, we have a responsibility to share the good news of salvation with those around us.

The apostle Paul wrote in Romans 10:14-15, "How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: 'How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!'"

Like the British missionaries who preached the gospel to Watchman Nee, we have been called to share the good news of salvation with those around us. We may not all be called to be missionaries to foreign lands, but we can all share the gospel with those around us, whether it's our family, friends, coworkers, or neighbors.

Let us remember the example of Watchman Nee and the importance of spreading the gospel. May we be bold and courageous in sharing the good news of salvation with those around us, so that they too may experience the hope and joy that comes from knowing Jesus Christ.
