Sharing in the mission

Every disciple must share Jesus’s mission of multiplication – disciples commissioned to make disciples. Jesus commissioned and sent His disciples out on a mission to reach others for God. When they were filled with the Holy Spirit they became powerful witnesses for Jesus, and they resolutely obeyed His command to make disciples for Him.  Many contemporary disciples are still obeying this command. So should we.

Rejoicing in the Lord

Various people share testimonies about a specific instance where they were able to obey the command to rejoice in the Lord.

Repentance is key to continuing to experience the joy of salvation.

David was described as a man after God’s heart (Acts 13:22).  David was committed to obedience to God even when it put his life in danger and he suffered a lot when Saul was chasing him with an army, to kill him. When David gave in to idleness, and physical comfort and desires he sinned grievously. Sin was and always is a dangerous “joy robber”. Genuine repentance is key to continuing to experience joyfulness.  If we try to cover up or justify our sin, our experience of mental, emotional well-being will be affected negatively.  Let us learn how to have a contrite and repentant hearts.  Those who do so will continue to experience the benefits of the joy of salvation.
