Day 6 - The Great Commission

“Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely, I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” - Matthew 28:19-20

To effectively fulfil the Great Commission, you must first know who you are and whose you are.

You are not an orphan but have a Father in Heaven that knows you by name (John 14:8).

He has filled you with the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:4).

The Holy Spirit is an encourager, strengthener, and present friend whose presence activates everyone to be an effective witness.

A witness testifies of something they have seen, known and experienced.

The moment you encounter God, you can testify of Him.

A witness has a message - in your case your message is the Good News Gospel! 

You are called to make disciples where you are, you don’t go in your strength but in the strength of the one who commanded you - Jesus. 

Shortly before Jesus ascended into Heaven, He gave this command as an instruction, not a suggestion. Jesus clearly outlined His expectations!

Whenever you’re looking for a word from Him, remember He has told you to “Go”, so go forth and make disciples of ALL nations! 

Task:

·       Pray for the lost, unchurched and those who don’t yet know Jesus and ask that they will come to know Him. Then go!

·       Speak to at least one person about the Good News that changed your life!

Prayer:

·   Lord, give me the strength to say yes to You every day! 

In Psalms 25:4, the Psalmist David cries out to God and says, “Show me your ways, O Lord teach me Your paths”.

So, Lord, I cry out to You in a similar manner, and say “God I want to be used by You, show me Your heart and teach me how I can show others your heart in Jesus Name!”

 

·  Lord Your word, in 2 Timothy 1:7 says “You have not given me the spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind.”

  May I walk in the reality of Your power, love, and sound mind. God release unto me a fresh boldness to share the Gospel to all those I encounter in Jesus Name!
