Bring the Gospel to the
World
Our Lord was serious about telling His followers to share the
gospel. Consider how you spend your time and your money. Does this indicate obedience to the most
important assignment you have ever received? What changes must you make to give
Jesus’ commandment top priority?
Obeying God
To become like Daniel, we must make a wholehearted commitment
to follow the Lord and consistently apply Scripture to our decision making.
Then, when challenges come, we’ll have the courage to obey God’s commands. Our
Father is pleased when we choose a lifestyle of obedience like Daniel’s.
Hearing the Call
Carrying the gospel is a great opportunity to serve God. What
better way to thank Him for saving us and writing our name in the Book of Life
than to share that experience with others. If the Lord’s still small voice is
calling you, say yes and see what amazing, life-changing work He can do through
you.
The Missionary Call
Mission work can occur near or far. You could serve: at home
by writing to prisoners; down the street by dishing out meals at a shelter;
across the nation by providing flood relief; or in a foreign land by
translating the gospel. In short, a missionary calling is whatever God tells
you to do.
The Missionary Question
I challenge you to ask the Lord, “Am I open to going anywhere
You send me?” Our roots in a community should be sunk only as deep as God
wills. If you aren’t called to go, then choose to be a sender. Offer your
prayers, your money, and anything else that will help to put others on the
mission field.
Walking Wisely
The Lord wants us to walk wisely so that we can enjoy all the
marvelous benefits that He’s promised in His Word and longs to give us. Wasted
opportunities and time misspent can never be reclaimed. Let’s commit to make
our lives count for Christ instead of merely living for ourselves.
