LET GO AND LET GOD

Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, so that you obey its desires. And do not offer any parts of it to sin as weapons for unrighteousness. But as those who are alive from the dead, offer yourselves to God, and all the parts of yourselves to God as weapons for righteousness.  -- Romans 6:12-13 (CSB)

We are controlled by many things every day.  It could be our ego or concern about what others think or expect from us.  For some of us it is baggage from the past which leads to guilt, resentment, or bitterness being in control.  Today, as we face the unknown territory and uncertainties of a global pandemic we may be tempted to give fear control. Some allow a substance or habit to have control.
Real freedom comes when we choose what we will allow to control us.  Real freedom comes when we choose to allow Jesus to have control, allowing Him to truly be Lord and Master.  If God is not number one in your life, something else is.  Whatever you give that number one spot to will control you.  When Jesus is in control of your life, he always moves you in the right direction and "He can do more with it than you can."

“Do whatever he tells you,” his mother told the servants. -- John 2:5 (CSB)
Maybe God would have you and your ministry team join us for a week of Team Ministry in Acuña, Mexico.  Have you asked Him about it?  Set aside your own fears of the unknown.  Allow God to make the decision and then "do whatever He tells you."

Now is the time to begin planning.

YOU WILL BE MY WITNESSES


You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come on you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. -- Acts 1:8

When we read these words of Jesus, our minds often go straight to thinking about GOING and TELLING everyone about the Good News of Jesus.  Certainly, as a cross-cultural missions ministry, we firmly believe we need to get out and preach Jesus and the Hope found in His Gospel.  However, it is interesting to note that Jesus said, "you will be my witnesses" -- in other words, how you live out the Gospel in your own life, as much or more than the words you speak, is witness to the world around you about Jesus.

So, what about you?  How do others see you?  What kind of WITNESS are you?  What kind of WITNESS do you want to be?  Does the WITNESS of what you say line up with the WITNESS of how you live?


You and your ministry team can also BE A WITNESS and DECLARE HIS GLORY AMONG THE NATIONS by joining us for a week of Team Ministry in Acuña, Mexico

Now is the time to begin planning.

DECLARE HIS GLORY


Part of worship is to declare God's glory; to God, to yourself, and to those around you. Worship is more than the outward expression of singing and songs.  Worship is more than prayer and silence. Worship is the sound of our lives as a living sacrifice and the response of our hearts to the love and grace of God's.
Jesus says, in John 14:15, "If you love me, you will keep my commands.” In Mark 12 He says that the greatest commandments are to “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: Love your neighbor as yourself.
If you love God, keep loving. That is the command. The highest form of DECLARING HIS GLORY and wonder among the nations and among ALL people is to LOVE. 
Your team can DECLARE HIS GLORY AMONG THE NATIONS by joining us for a week of Team Ministry in Acuña, Mexico

Now is the time to begin planning.

THE NATIONS


Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance
and the ends of the earth your possession. -- Psalms 2:8

Psalm 2 looks forward to the day when Jesus returns, crowned as King of all the earth to  set up His reign over the nations. On that day He will rule the nations, as God promised.  

Oh hallelujah, He is the triumphant Messiah of Israel. 
He is the eternal Son of the most high God.

After the sacrifice Jesus made on the cross, God raised Him up to the highest place of honor by making the nations His inheritance and the ends of the earth His possession.  The Psalmist proclaims Christ’s eternal authority over ALL the nations in the midst of their boasting and planning to ignore His Lordship.


Your team can honor the Great Commission in obedience and with a global perspective by joining us for a week of Team Ministry in Mexico

Now is the time to begin planning.

GLOBAL CHRISTIANS


“We must be global Christians with a global vision because our God is a global God.”
― John R.W. Stott

The Great Commission is the command of the resurrected Jesus the Messiah to His disciples to spread His teachings to all the nations of the world.  

Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you.  -- Matthew 28:19-20

This command from Jesus is significant because it is a personal instruction for Christians to have a profound faith in Jesus Christ.  Jesus calls every Jesus follower to step out in faith and spread the Gospel message. It is faith in action!  Those who obey this command of Jesus find their spiritual lives changed forever!  It could be sharing Jesus with a neighbor, taking a short-term mission trip, or even could even mean moving to another country to reach the people there.  It could be sharing the Hope found in Jesus with less fortunate children down the street or in a town two hours away.  Wherever we are GOING, as Christians, we are commanded to share the Gospel with a global perspective (make disciples of all nations).  

Wherever we GO, every Christian is commanded to share the Gospel with a global perspective.  

As a faithful follower of Jesus, can you answer these questions?  
  1. Where has He called you to go? 
  2. Who has God put on your heart to share the gift of salvation? 
  3. What steps, big or small, can you take, with the knowledge that Jesus will be by your side, "to make disciples of all the nations"?


Did you know you and your team can honor the Great Commission in obedience and with a global perspective by joining us for a week of Team Ministry in Mexico?

Now is the time to begin planning.
