Fulfilling the Great Commission

Join This HeartCry Prayer- Every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday 11.30am-1.30pm (UK Time)

Living only for Jesus Christ is the first conviction to have and to sustain in order to please God and fulfill the Great Commission.

Luke 1:74-75 
To grant us that we, being delivered from the hand of our enemies, might serve Him without fear, in holiness and righteousness before Him all the days of our life.

What is your understanding of the reason you were born and now born-again?
Is your life according to pattern stated by this Scripture?

Prayers:
  • Settle it in my heart now that I was rescued from the hand of my enemies in order to be released to serve JESUS without fear; with ALL my life and without restrain.
  • Open my understanding to know and walk in the fullness of YOUR will for my life, which is to serve Christ in holiness and righteousness all the days of my life.
  • Help me to see that continuing to live unrighteously is to deny what Christ did for me at Calvary and to ignore the provision of such a FULL salvation.

2 Corinthians 5:14-15 
"For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again."

What compels/controls and moves You? Your decisions? Your passion? Your time? What interest you?
Paul declared: “We are convinced….” Are you also convinced?

Prayers:
  • Lord, let Your Gospel work thoroughly in and through me; leaving behind an evacuated and de-cluttered life that is ONLY controlled and compelled by Christ’s love.
  • Luke 1:4  - Grant me grace to be rooted, certain, convinced, grounded and established on ALL the segments of the Gospel.
  • We allow the Gospel, having worked in us, to sever us from the lower nature's desire to continue to live for SELF. I will live for JESUS who died and was raised again for me.
  • Only JESUS and His love for humanity will control and compel me.

Philippians 1:20-21
"According to my earnest expectation and hope that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death. For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain."

Are you ashamed of the Gospel?
Are you always bold to declare Christ and Him crucified?
Are you resolved whether by life or death to live for Christ?

Revelation 4:11 
Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.

Prayers:
  • Please, Lord! Be magnified in my body whether by life or by death.
  • May You continually drink out of my life till You are satisfied and let my life bring You much pleasure.
  • Let it be also that our living is to and for Christ and dying gain.

Witnesses in Kingdom Labour (2)

Join this HeartCry Prayer- Every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday 11.30am-1.30pm (UK time)

John 1: 1 – 8 (KJV)
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made.
In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light that all men through him might believe.
He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.

**As witnesses of the work of God, who also are in the work of God (Kingdom Labour): we must ensure that God's Mind for His WORK is perfectly represented in our day-to-day lives through the light of His WORD– which is THE GOSPEL!

John 1:6 - There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

The Gospel remains God's but as His witness, I am expected to carry both THE MESSAGE and THE MISSION with Divine credentials.

Prayer:
  • Lord, help me to be fully attentive to both Your WORD and Your WORK in my life.
  • Let my life and labour REVIVE THE INTERESTS OF YOUR KINGDOM in my generation.
  • Let my sole aim in labouring for You be towards the revival of Your LIFE and Your LIGHT in the lives of others.
John 1:7 - The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.

I am a LEADING-WITNESS and a TESTIMONY of The Light of The Gospel.
The Testimony of Christ must be confirmed in my labour (1 Cor 1:4-8)
I am a witness that is expected to keep THE GOSPEL up (Acts 14:16 -17) by calling the attention of others to The Light of the True Gospel.

Prayer:
  • Lord, please align my life with the reality of this divine partnership. Let me not break the connection of Heaven with my life for the sake of others.
  • Let my life break the silence between the sinful humanity and their CREATOR.
  • Lord, use my life to open the eyes of men, women and children to the GRACE that is embedded in their redemption from the beginning.

LET NOT MY LIFE BE SHUT TO THE MYSTERY OF THE GOSPEL.

John 1:8 - He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.

As a witness, I MUST NOT be mistaken about the PERSON that I am witnessing – the focus must not be on me or on my labour at any given time, or in whatever capacity.
Let me always remember that the Kingdom Labour is not mine, I am only a witness of it.

MY GOSPEL IS A BORROWED GOSPEL..THE GOSPEL THROUGH ME IS SHINING THROUGH A BORROWED LIGHT!!!

Prayer:
  • Lord, please unite both my closet life and my public life; make both one in CHRIST so that my labour as a witness will achieve the interests of the Complete Gospel.
  • Help me to constantly remember that whatever You allow to shine through my labour is shinning through The Borrowed Light of the Gospel.
LET THE NATIONS AND PEOPLE RECEIVE ME AS YOUR WITNESS. LET THEM ALSO SEE THE GREATNESS OF YOUR WITNESS THROUGH THE MYSTERY OF THE GOSPEL (1 John 5:9).

  • My witnessing must bear the qualification for my kingdom labour.
Prayer:
  • Lord, please fasten me to my position in Your Kingdom, and let me both be acquainted with my position and be active in my position as a witness to Your Work.
  • Lord, build me up quickly in Your Kingdom through the Gospel (Heb. 3:4), I do not want to be the one holding You and Your Work in ransom...Have Your choice in me, O Lord!
  • Open my life to the everlasting knowledge of my position as a witness, help me to work in the reality of it and do not allow my flesh to add to this knowledge.

John 1:4 - In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

  • So also the Light shining through my labour in Christ for God MUST make great lights of other lives.
