Scripture: Isaiah 66:1-6
“You did not choose me, but I chose you an appointed you to go
And bear fruit – fruit that will last”
John 15:16 (NIV)
Recently, I read an interesting statistical process which is similar to the progression, showing we are in the master plan program. In it the writer said the reason the kingdom is not growing in population as it should, contrary to the rapidly increasing world population is because we are adding souls to the kingdom instead of multiplying.
For example, if you were to lead one person to Christ daily for the next thirty-two years, by the end of that period, there would be 11,680 people in God’s Kingdom. If, however you lead one person to Christ and train him or her to be a disciple, by the end of the first year, there will be two of you. By the second year, there would be four of you. If this process continued with no broken link in the chain at the end of the same thirty-two years, there would be 4,294,967,296 (four billion, two hundred and ninety-four million, nine hundred and sixty-seven thousand, two hundred and ninety-six) of you.
You may not have great organizational skills, the oracle of words to speak before a crowd to convince them or possess world- class leadership ability; the key is to humble yourself and join the plan that the Lord has given for getting the job done. One soul at a time. It is the master’s plan to reach mankind.
REMEMBER TO ATTEND: MAP Meeting (Home Fellowship) tomorrow.
PRAYER: Lord help me to humble myself enough to obey your instruction to make disciples and not speak personal exaltation.
FAITH BYTE: I shall humble myself and run with the Lords plan for making disciples,
I receive grace to be committed to it.
