Make disciples!


Jesus commanded His disciples to go forth and make disciples of men, baptizing them in the name of the FATHER and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

What does that mean for you and I?

Well quite simply it means that each one of us who knows that Jesus Christ is our Lord and our Saviour, is charged with a duty to tell others the good news and to spread the news about the way to eternal life with GOD our FATHER in Heaven.

Not all of us are missionaries and not all of us are gifted with the will to go out and become full time Christian ministers or pastors or teachers. 

However, in our own small way we can spread the news.  The internet is a wonderful tool if we are shy or not particularly eloquent.  We can post the good news online.

Or we can give people something to think about when we close our conversations by simply saying things like "GOD bless you and keep you".  It is still spreading the good news that GOD loves each and every one of us.  We can join Church groups or find Christian prayer groups and this helps us to spread the good news.

The more we do it, the more we will want to do and the more opportunities GOD will give us to do so.  

Prayer:  Heavenly FATHER GOD, please help me to make more disciples on this earth.  Give me opportunities to tell people about YOUR enormous grace and the sacrifice that YOU made when YOU sent YOUR Son to die for my sins.  Please FATHER show me how I can teach others about YOUR salvation.  I pray this in the name of my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay wondrously GOD blessed today!
