Making Disciples

Okay, I wrote this post on Facebook on the 23rd of May while we were in Mozambique on an outreach.

I felt that I should share it again, but this time here on the blog.

The more I look at God's Word and the more I study it, the more I am convinced that if we do not make disciples at all or even try to share God's Word with the lost, that we don't really know the heart of the Lord at all. 

Consider Ephesians 4:11-12, we are supposed to be equipped for the work of the Ministry. It is not just the work of the Pastors, prophets, evangelists, teachers and apostles to do God's work. We as God's church is supposed to reach out to the lost by all means possible. Will you allow someone to burn to death in a building if you know you can help and save them? 

We do not have an excuse, we have Bibles. Friends, I beg you to take God's Word and to study it and to apply what you read to your life. The time for Chri
stians to be bottle-fed with milk has to stop. Start reading the meaty stuff and do what the Bible tells you to do. Please consider James 1:22-24: "But be doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. Because if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man looking at his own face in a mirror. For he looks at himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was." (HCSB). 

Do not be concerned with what the World is doing and their sins, but look at your own heart and strive to live a life giving to God alone. We will only make an impact if we live God's Word. 

Also go and read Matt. 28:18-20. Jesus's call for us to make disciples is something no Christian can deny. The one who has been given all authority is sending us. 

May the Lord Bless you and help you to make disciples for His name's sake.
