WE ARE COMFORTABLY LAZY TO PREACH THE GOSPEL.
THE CALLED AND EMPOWERED:
TO SIT BACK ON OUR ANOINTMENT AND FOLD OUR ARMS AT THE COMFORT OF OUR CUSHION CHAIRS; PRETENDING ALL IS WELL WITHOUT LIVING UP TO THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF OUR INDIVIDUAL ANOINTMENT IS EQUIVALENT OF BEING A FIG-TREE IN THE VINEYARD.
LET US WAKE UP FROM OUR SLUMBERS, AND GET OUT OF OUR COMFORT ZONES AND START PREACHING THE KINGDOM OF GOD TO ALL THAT WANTS SALVATION.
AS IT WAS GIVEN TO THE DISCIPLES OF OLD; SO ALSO IT HAS BEEN GIVEN UNTO YOU CHRIST CHOSEN AND ANOINTED.
ISAIAH 61:-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 BROKEN HEARTED, TO PROCLAIM LIBERTY TO THE CAPTIVES AND THE OPENING OF THE PRISON TO THEM THAT ARE BOUND.”
SITTING COMFORTABLY AT THE FOUR CORNER WALLS OF OUR PLACES OF WORSHIP, PREACHING TO SAME PEOPLE OVER AND OVER AND OVER IS NOT HOW TO WIN NEW SOULS.
TAKE THE JEHOVAH WITNESS FOR EXAMPLE, THEY ARE ALWAYS ON THE STREET, KNOCKING ON DOORS, NEVER CARE OF BEING INSULTED. PREACHING THE KINGDOM OF GOD TO EVERYONE THAT CARES.
BUT WE ARE COMFORTABLY LAZY. WE LIKE TO PREACH WHERE THERE IS AIR-CONDITION, MICROPHONE, AND LOTS OF CROWD TO APPLAUD.
MARK 16:-15-16 “AND HE SAID UNTO THEM, “GO YE INTO ALL THE WORLD, AND PREACH THE GOSPEL TO EVERY CREATURE; HE THAT BELIEVETH AND BAPTIZED SHALL BE SAVED; BUT HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT SHALL BE DAMNED.”
THIS IS NOT INTENDED ONLY TO THE PASTORS OR THE SHEPHERDS, IT IS ALSO TO THOSE THAT ARE ABLE AND WILLING.
AS THE ARK OF NOAH IS THE ONLY WAY OUT OF BEEN FLOODED IN THE DAYS OF NOAH, SO ALSO CHRIST IS THE ONLY WAY TO ETERNAL SALVATION.
CHRIST IS NOT TO BE IGNORED, OR BRUSH ASIDE BY THOSE THAT DESIRED SALVATION.
GOD HAS GIVEN US THE SPIRIT OF COURAGE AND BOLDNESS TO PREACH HIS GOSPEL. (2 TIMOTHY 1:-7)
MAY THE LORD COUNT US WORTHY OF HIS KINGDOM THAT WE LABOR NOT IN VAIN.
