RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL YOUR MISSION IN LIFE - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME PHD WEDNESDAY, MAY 4TH 2016.
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned (Mark 16:15-16).
As Christians, we're on a mission in the earth, and the clarity of our mission is so important. Many people live without purpose, focus and direction; but when you give your heart to Christ, He gives you a clear mission, a definite purpose for living. In our opening scripture, the Lord Jesus was unequivocal about our mission; it's for us to go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature. Therefore, let your life count for the Gospel.
No matter who you are, where you are, what you do, and where you do what you do, your primary assignment and purpose for living is to Minister God's Word to those in your world. Your mission is to reach and win the lost to Jesus. Christianity is about soul winning. Therefore, keep talking to others about Jesus, and let your lifestyle be inspiring enough to cause sinners around you to desire to know Jesus.
Let everything about your life culminate in turning men and women to righteousness. Be focused, purposeful and resolute about your mission, which is soul-winning. Jesus said in John 4:34, "...My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work." Then, in John 20:21, He said, "...Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you." You've been sent to reach all men with the Gospel of life; let your whole life be in pursuit of this purpose! Be passionate about the expansion of God's Kingdom, and the spread of the message of Christ's salvation to the ends of the earth.
CONFESSION
I'm a man on a mission, entrusted with the divine responsibility of reaching those in my world with the Gospel of light. My zeal, passion, and commitment to the expansion of God's Kingdom is rekindled today. The light of the glorious Gospel of Christ shines brightly in the hearts of men today, taking away darkness, pain, and misery, and bringing them righteousness, light, and glory, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
