Ministry

"Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen." Matthew 28:19-20

Those of us who have read the scriptures have no doubt seen the Great Commission. Go to the world and preach Christ's salvation to everyone. That is the ministry Christ left for His disciples. His disciples, I am sure, had their own people they were ministering to. If not, the message of Christ would have died with those men. God did not leave a hard to understand manual on how to do it, JUST DO IT! Believe it or not, those who are professed Christian and have truly accept Christ as savior have already accepted a call into ministry. You have accepted the call to be a preacher! God does not care how you spread the word of His son, Jesus, just that you get it out there.

Ephesians 4:11 says "
And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;" So you can be a pastor, evangelist, teacher, etc.

So are you fulfilling your call? When you accepted Christ did you begin sharing Jesus with the people around you? Are you being called now into something more? I have been praying the Lord show me what He wants from me. I don't know for the life of me why I am being used vocally through song. But I am going with it on faith. Thats how God works. Gives you something you don't think you can do and turns you towards that thing He uses the best. If you don't know where God wants you, PRAY. God will reveal it to you. If you have accepted Christ and are doing nothing, SHAME ON YOU for forfeiting a HUGE blessing. God did not call His people to just slide under the rug, He wants his people to live souled out for Him. That includes finding a ministry and jumping into it.

I urge all true Christians to seek out the ministry God has for you and GO!
