On Mission

19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,
20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Matthew 28:19-20 The Great Commission

Jesus said this to His disciples before He ascended into Heaven, to be seated at the right-hand of the throne of God the Father.

A brother in the LORD shared with me one time the following thought - "This is not the 'Great Suggestion' it is the 'Great Commission'"

He was right.

When Jesus spoke these words to His disciples, He was not exclusively addressing them, Jesus was addressing us, His Bride, His Church.

So...

My youngest son Dominic and I will be heading down to Hatteras, North Carolina for the weekend, to help our fellow brothers and sisters in the LORD, construct a skatepark and lifecenter.

What a great way to reach out to the multitudes with the Gospel of Jesus Christ!!!

During the summer, you can see license plates from literally every state in the union and also plates from Canada.

We can see God's guiding hand in this and know that it will reap a harvest. The fields are more than ripe (white) for the harvest. By having this skatepark and lifecenter, it will provide many people of different age groups to come to a place that is safe, non-threatening and hear the word of the LORD being proclaimed through service.

We are instructed to put the lamp on the lampstand. I give thanks to the LORD that I am able to share this mission opportunity with my youngest son. What a blessing unto the LORD.

Prayer,

LORD JESUS, I marvel at Your Cross. You paid my sin debt in full at Calvary. You made me clean, whiter than snow. You forgot my sins as far as the east is from the west. You poured my sins out onto the ocean floor, where they will never be seen or heard from again.

You are my KING. I adore YOU and want to serve YOU JESUS.

Please LORD, I pray that YOU and HOLY SPIRIT will bless that place in Hatteas. Please place Your Hedge of Protection around it. Let not the enemy come into tear down what YOU are building up.

Most of all LORD, I pray that in everything that is said and done this weekend, that YOU BE GLORIFIED!!!

I LOVE YOU LORD :)

God Bless You All. May the Peace that exceeds all understanding be upon you always.
