[2 Corinthians 5:13-21 KJV] “For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for your cause. [14] For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: [15] And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. [16] Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more. [17] Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. [18] And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; [19] To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. [20] Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. [21] For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him”.
The Bible tells us that one died for all that all will live for the one who died for them. We are called to live for Christ and not for ourselves. Every member of the body of Christ is called to be a missionary to the world around us. We have been given the ministry and the word of reconciliation. We are called to serve Christ in missions.
To serve well in missions;
- Believe on he whom the Father has sent
- Worship the Lord in Spirit and in truth
- Come into His presence with singing to every appointed meeting
- Go into the world and preach the gospel, baptise converts, and teach the church
- Reach out to the fatherless, widows and the less privileged.
These are my simple tips to serve in missions or as a missionary in everyday life. May the Lord help us to simplify our lives and serve the Lord in everyday life.
It is important to;
- Dress well
- Put away childish things
- Work with your hands
- Pursue somthing:
- what can I do, how do I do it, what do I need, how do I get it, and I must run with might.
- Be open to all possibilities: hope for the best, plan for the worst, and in all things give thanks.
There is wisdom that will guide you through the season.
Believe on the son of the living God (John 1:12)
- Desire and relax in the presence of the living God (Psalm 84:2)
- Obeserve all church protocols (1 Timothy 3:15)
- Take heed, lest an evil heart forms in you (Hebrews 3:12)
- Even when riches increase, trust in the Lord who gives us all things to enjoy freely, and not in uncertain riches (1 Timothy 4:10)
Remember, there are four things that will enable you to rule indeed: 1 Samuel 16:18
- Right upbringing
- The Anointing
- Right attitude
- Right company (1 Chronicles 12:1ff)
You shall serve the Lord to our full potential and serve Him wholeheartedly. Be blessed;
I love you!
