God’s Mission

 Scripture:

“And how will anyone go and tell them without being sent? That is why the Scriptures say, “How beautiful are the feet of messengers who bring good news!”” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭10‬:‭15‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Observation:

Paul is telling the Romans here that salvation is for everyone and needs to get to everyone. The only way to get the Gospel to the ends of the earth is to send people. People can’t hear unless someone tells them. People can’t respond if they never hear. People can’t come to Jesus unless someone sends them. Without the sender, none of the mission can be accomplished. 

Application:

I need to live my life on God’s mission in the earth. There is a missio dei. There is a mission of God. God has a mission on this earth and we as God’s people are to help fulfill that mission. As believers, our mission should be to get on God’s mission on the earth and help bring it to pass. We are either prayers, goers, or senders. I personally want to be all three. I want to give my life to God’s global mission, whether it is here, there, or elsewhere.

Prayer:

Father, as I come home from Turkey, Ghana, and Togo, on Your mission, I am more ready than ever to give myself fully to Your mission. I want to help fulfill Your mission on the earth and will walk through whatever doors You open for me to do it. Give me strength as I get older and give me resources to bring the mission to pass. Open the windows of heaven financially so we can do more for Your kingdom.

Forever Yours,

Jeff
