Diving Deep with DL

We serve a God that is TOTALLY FAITHFUL! He’s the only One, that’s TOTALLY FAITHFUL in every circumstance, every event, and every time, on every day and every year from eternity past and forever! God’s real acts of faithfulness are ALL throughout His word!

Matthew 28:20 is a promise that all of Jesus' disciples believe God is TOTALLY FAITHFUL, and that's "and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Do you BELIEVE God is TOTALLY FAITHFUL? 

What happens next, God’s word renews your mind. As you continue to focus on His words, the more visible He becomes to you. Can you see Him, or are you just peering at His words?

And when you see Him, God through His Spirit changes your perspective of Him forever! Now, how would you answer Jesus' question in Luke 6:46? So, I'll ask you, do you love Him? 

Do you think you could justify that His eternal word only applied then, and it does not apply to you today? Can it be that you, does apply to YOU regardless of where you stand on the linear line of time? God’s propose for discipleship is to be The Way of life for His disciples, not like a trinket you add to your wardrobe! If discipleship requires work, what’s the work? The WORK is making disciples, are you a disciple maker? 

God the Father delivered you from His eternal wrath and He transferred you into the kingdom of God the Son. And at that moment, God the Holy Spirit began His work. You were born again, and your old ways of life were made new. God's work continues from the day of salvation and forever! So, when you baptize in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, that’s why!

When God commands to make disciples of ALL the nations, you don’t get to choose where you draw the line to include or exclude anyone, because God desires for His gospel to go to the ENTIRE PLACE! NO exceptions!  God’s command includes all people, from all walks of life, and from all places to hear the Good News about eternal life in His presence, and Jesus wants that for YOU! Are you ready to make disciples?

Do you see your calling and life change as preparation for accomplishing the common purpose of disciple making? Have you been preparing and growing so you can produce them? God commands in Matthew 28:19 to "Go therefore and make disciples..." Are you responding in obedience to God's calling on your life? If not, maybe TODAY is the time for you to MOVE! 

Our lives as a disciple of Jesus must represent more than being an acquaintance. God empowers His disciples to sharpen each other. Proverbs 27:17 is a powerful passage to remind us that we have work to do. Are you living out this truth of God? When God assigns you discipling tasks, you are accountable to Him to carry them out! Do you need to be sharpened? I can tell you there's a disciple within your reach. 
Just reach out, and see God at work!    

Did you know you are CALLED into life as a disciple of Jesus? Today you will hear the significance of God's CALLING on your life! And how God's CALLING brings you out of the domain of darkness and spiritual death, into His marvelous Light and spiritual life!
I pray you are encouraged to continue on this journey of being and making disciples, amen?
