Simple reads: Missions

{AN URGENT MISSION}

Surely this God warrants more than our raising a hand and

praying a prayer. Surely this God warrants more than nominal

adherence, church attendance, or casual acceptance. This God

warrants complete abandonment of our plans, our possessions,

our hopes, our dreams, and our lives. We lay everything we have

on the table before this God, and we say, “Use me—my life, my

family, my church, everything I have and everything I am—for

the spread of your glory and this gospel to the ends of the earth.”

Indeed, the only logical response to this glorious God of grace is,

“Here am I. Send me.”

{THE GREAT COMMISION}

You or I can bail, but the mission is still going to go forward.

So it’s not God throwing a blueprint in our laps and saying, “Go

do it.” It’s God saying, “This is what I’m doing. I don’t know what

you’re doing, but this is what I’m doing. It’s spectacular, and you’re

invited to come along and be a part of what I’m doing.” He’s invit-

ing us. He’s not pushing us out the door and saying, “Go do that.”

He’s saying, “This is what I’m doing. This is where I’m going. This

is what’s on my heart. Join me.”

{HIS PEOPLE}

There are an estimated seventeen thousand people groups on the

planet, and God deserves praise from every single one of them.

Yet thousands of these people groups have yet to be reached with

the gospel. Hundreds of millions of men and women who have

rebelled against the sovereign glory of God have never heard

about the saving grace of God.

{THE MISSION}

Missions is about the worship of Jesus and the joy of all peoples.

And as surely as Jesus is Lord of the universe, the mission will

finish. He will build his church. He will be worshiped among

every people. And in him will his redeemed people, from all the people.

These are all excerpts from a book I am reading called Finish The Mission

Not too late to sign up for the September Disciplship Training School because GOING is necessary for discipling.
