The Wisdom In Discovering Your Own Portion Of Assignment In The Great Commission


Every man/woman is on an assignment
Jeremiah 5:10 – See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.

Every Family Is On An Assignment
Deuteronomy10:8 - At that time the LORD separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of the LORD, to stand before the LORD to minister unto him, and to bless in his name, unto this day.

Every Generation Has A unique Assignment
examples
·Moses generation left Egypt the land of Captivity
·Joshua generation entered Canaan the Promised Land

We enjoy electricity, tarmac roads, TVs etc because of the generations that have gone ahead of us.

We enjoy the gospel because of – Disciples, John Wesley (1703 – 1791), Martin Luther etc

We enjoy THIS HALL because of the people who went ahead of us.

TEAM WORK
Your unique assignment is connected to the assignment of others
There is No Joshua without Moses
There is No Saul without Samuel

Football players play in a team. If you get foot ball stars out of their team, they will not count much.

The Mission Of The Church
The major mission of the Church = Restoration, Reformation And Transformation.

Isaiah 61: 1 – 4
1 - The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
2 - To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
3 - To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.

4 - And they shall BUILD THE OLD WASTES, they shall RAISE UP THE FORMER DESOLATIONS, and they shall REPAIR THE WASTE CITIES, the desolations of many generations.

Cities = Education Systems, Family Units, Religious Organizations etc

Every Christian has their portion in this huge church mission!

What Are You Doing With Your Portion?
Matthew 5:16 - Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
