God’s purpose for our lives is to be about the Mission. What is the mission that God has for every follower of Jesus to reach people who need Jesus as Lord and Savior? Are we living on mission today? Jesus was the first missionary and set the example for every follower of Jesus to be a missionary in our home, neighborhood, workplace, school, our city, and all around the world.
Romans 10:14-15; “But how can they call on Jesus to save them unless they believe in Him. And how can they believe in Him if they have never heard about Him? And how can they hear about Him unless someone tells them? And how will anyone go and tell them without being sent? That is why the Scriptures say, “How beautiful are the feet of the messengers who bring good news.”
We have a mission to reach people that Jesus brings into our lives. Every day we come into contact with people, and we need to tell them about Jesus!
Think about the last part of verse 15: “How beautiful are the feet of the messengers who bring good news of Jesus.” Every day, wherever we go, we should be messengers of the good news of Jesus! We need to see ourselves as missionaries here on Staten Island. We need to pray, study, and then go. Wherever we go, pray for opportunities to tell others about Jesus!
