As you go, preach this message: “The kingdom of heaven is near.”
Matthew 10:7 NIV
The Good News of Jesus Christ should be shouted from the rooftops by believers the world over. But all too often, it is not. For a variety of reasons, many Christians keep their beliefs to themselves, and when they do, the world suffers because of their failure to speak up.
As believers, we are called to share the transforming message of Jesus with our families, with our neighbors, and with the world. Jesus commands us to become fishers of men. And, the time to go fishing is now. We must share the Good News of Jesus Christ today—tomorrow may indeed be too late.
God is not saving the world; it is done. Our business is to get men and women to realize it. - Oswald Chambers, 100 Days of Prayer
For every believer, the task, or mission, is to lead people to the truth of Jesus Christ. - Charles Stanley
Taking the gospel to people wherever they are—death row, the ghetto, or next door—is frontline evangelism, frontline love. It is our one hope for breaking down barriers and for restoring the sense of community, of caring for one another, that our decadent, impersonalized culture has sucked out of us. - Chuck Colson
Christianity spread rapidly during the first century because all Christians saw themselves as responsible for disseminating the gospel. - Erwin Lutzer
Today’s Prayer
Lord, even if I never leave home, make me a missionary for You. Let me share the Good News of Your Son, and let me tell of Your love and of Your grace. Make me a faithful servant for You, Father, now and forever. Amen
