FOOD FOR TEENS (MAKE FULL PROOF OF YOUR MINISTRY) DIVINE TRUTH 2016
FOOD FOR TEENSMAKE FULL
PROOF OF YOUR MINISTRY
Hello my beloved saints, welcome to the month of June.
I know you are waxing stronger in the grace of our Lord and Saviour Jesus
Christ.
In
the episode of the Divine truth I will like to admonish you to make full proof
of ministry. Do you know that every believer has a ministry. Do you know that
as Christians we all have a common goal and purpose in Christ Jesus. Our ways
and methods of administering out goals may be different but yet our ministries
are the same. There is one thing we must focus on as Christians, that is our
ministry just like the Apostle Paul told Timothy in II Timothy 4:5 thus,“But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do
the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry”
So am
telling you children of God; make full proof of your ministry, make sure you
fulfill and finish your ministry. You may ask, what ministry are you talking
about? Beloved am taking about the ministry of reconciliation II Corinthians
5:18.
“And
all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself Jesus Christ, and hath
given to us the ministry of reconciliation”.
To
reconcile means to create a friendly relationship. God through the death,
burial and resurrection of Christ Jesus has created a friendly relationship
between us and Himself. God is no longer angry with us. In Psalms 7:11
scripture says that “God is angry with the wicked every day”. But not now because
the auctioning sacrifices of the body and blood of Jesus Christ has made us one
with God. We’ve been reconciled or rather we’ve been made on with God.
But
it didn’t stop there. The scripture above also says that God has given to us
His children the ministry of reconciliation. That is to say as believer in
Christ Jesus, we have the mandate to make people who doesn’t know Christ to
become one with God. How do we do that? II Corinthians 5:19, “To
wit, that God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing
their trespasses unto them; hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation”.
According to the scripture above, the whole humanity,
saved and unsaved has been reconciled to God but not everyone has heard and
received the reconciliation massage. Therefore, God has committed or given us a
responsibility a ministry as believers to preach the word of reconciliation to
the unsaved. We are to tell them that God is no longer impute or count their
sins against them. We are to tell them that if they will repent and believe
that Jesus already paid for their sins and errors and hence forth leave their
lives trusting in Jesus they will be saved and God’s wrath and judgment will
not be against them.
God is no longer angry at sinners, instead He wants
them to come to Him as their Saviour and Lord. He want them to leave their lives
depending on Him as their succour and provider, He wants them to leave their
lives in faith trusting in Him and nothing else. Romans 10:13-16.
“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord
shall be saved”
“How then shall they call on him in whom they have not
believed? And how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard?”
And how shall they preach, except they be sent? As it
is written, how beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace,
and being glad today’s of good things!
But, they have not all obeyed …
Will you obey today and preach the gospel to somebody,
will you obey and fulfill your mandate as one of those that brought peephole
out of darkness to light through the preaching of the gospel of faith. The
choice and decision is yours.
Jesus says in Revelation 2:10 thus, ”be
thou faithful unto death and I will I give thee a crown of life”
Don’t live am empty life, go for gold, go for the crow
of life. Be faithful.
