GOD'S PERFECT AND WONDROUS WORK TO A
MISSION-MINDED CHURCH IN TIMES OF THEIR DEEP NEEDS.
( Hebrews 4:16 ) Let us therefore come boldly unto
the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time
of need.
* INTRODUCTION:
a. The good and blessed promises of God to faithful Christians are very
clear in the Word of God and this is a big encouragement to all Christian to
choose to be faithful before God.
* ( Proverbs 28:20 )
A faithful
man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not
be innocent.
b. So if you are new Christian and already baptized this is big
challenge to you that you goal to be faithful to God. Because God is always
with you even in good time or in bad time. Like what happened in the life of
Job. That in the time of deep trials God support him and Job do not feel that
he is alone even though his wife does not support him but instead he was
rejected and asked him not to continue to trust God.
( Job 2:9-10 ) 9 Then said his wife unto him,
Dost thou still retain thine integrity? curse God, and die.
10 But he said unto her, Thou
speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at
the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin
with his lips.
* Even all the close friends of Job unfriend him instead to support him
in time of his trials and trouble. His friends rebuked him and put him to shame
( Job 4:1-5 ) 1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite
answered and said,
2 If we assay to commune with
thee, wilt thou be grieved? but who can withhold himself from speaking?
3 Behold, thou hast instructed
many, and thou hast strengthened the weak hands.
4 Thy words have upholden him that
was falling, and thou hast strengthened the feeble knees.
5 But now it is come upon thee,
and thou faintest; it toucheth thee, and thou art troubled.
5 GREAT GOD'S WONDROUS AND PERFECT SUPPPORT TO A MISSION-MINDED
CHURCH IN TIMES OF THEIR DEEP NEEDS.
1.GOD ANSWERS THE PRAYERS OF THE MISSION-MINDED CHURCH IN
TIMES OF THEIR DEEP NEEDS.
( Hebrews 4:16 ) Let us therefore come boldly unto
the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time
of need.
a. Take note the promise of this bible verse to the faithful Christians.
" That we may obtain mercy, and find grace in time need "
b. I remember king David that he was positive to receive help from God
in times of his needs.
( Psalms 121:1-8 ) 1 I will lift up mine eyes unto
the hills, from whence cometh my help.
2 My help cometh from the LORD,
which made heaven and earth.
3 He will not suffer thy foot to
be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel
shall neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD
is thy shade upon thy right hand.
6 The sun shall not smite thee by
day, nor the moon by night.
7 The LORD shall preserve thee
from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.
8 The LORD shall preserve thy
going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.
c. Paul believed that the faithful Christians shall supply all their
needs
( Philippians 4:19 )
19 But my
God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ
Jesus.
d. Church or Christians God is always excited and interested to answer
the prayers of the faithful Christians
* Remember the prayer of Jabez?
( I Chronicles 4:10
) And Jabez
called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and
enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest
keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he
requested.
2.GOD DIRECT THE STEP OF THE MISSION-MINDED CHURCH TO
FULFILL THEIR DEEP NEEDS.
( Psalms 37:23 ) The steps of a good man are
ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.
a. God knows our enemy the Devil will always hinder us not to walk a
righteous. But God promise the faithful Christians to direct our path in a
daily basis.
( Psalms 119:11 ) 11 Thy word have I hid in mine
heart, that I might not sin against thee.
( Psalms 119:105 ) 105 Thy word is a lamp unto my
feet, and a light unto my path.
c. Christian we need to ask God direct our daily walk and the Word of
God is our perfect guidance in our daily walk.
( Psalms 1:1-3 ) 1 Blessed is the man that walketh
not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor
sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2 But his delight is in the law of
the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
3 And he shall be like a tree
planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season;
his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
e. We have the guidance of the Holy Spirit in our daily walk.
( John 16:13 ) Howbeit when he, the Spirit of
truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of
himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew
you things to come.
f. Paul believe that the perfect walk of the Christian is to walk by
faith and not by sight.
( II Corinthian 5:7
) (For we
walk by faith, not by sight:)
g. Our great men and women in the Old Testament walk by faith and they
were Victorious in their generation.
( Hebrews 11: 32-33
) 32 And
what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of
Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the
prophets:
33 Who through faith subdued
kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of
lions,
* God always direct the step of the faithful Christians.
( Psamls 37:23 ) The steps of a good man are
ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.
3. GOD TRUST THE MISSION-MINDED CHURCH OF MANY PRECIOUS
SOULS TO BE SAVED IN MISSION WORK.
( II Timothy 2:1-2 )
1 Thou
therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
2 And the things that thou hast
heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who
shall be able to teach others also.
a. Paul gave serious advice to Timothy to choose faithful Christians for
the Soulwinners of Christ.
b. Paul believed that the faithful Christians deserve to be the
Soulwinners of Christ. Because soulwinners called the Ambassadors of Christ.
( II Corinthians 5:
19-20 ) 18 And all
things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath
given to us the ministry of reconciliation;
* Ambassadors of Christ are acting or doing the most important job that
only faithful Christians are the one deserve to do it. To reconcile the lost
sinners to Christ the Redeemer and the only Savior Jesus Christ.
c. Paul is our good model for being an Ambassador of Christ to lost
people.
( I Corinthians
9:19-22 ) 19 For
though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I
might gain the more.
20 And unto the Jews I became as a
Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the
law, that I might gain them that are under the law;
21 To them that are without law,
as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,)
that I might gain them that are without law.
22 To the weak became I as weak,
that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by
all means save some.
4. GOD PROTECTS THE MISSION-MINDED CHURCH FROM ALL KINDS
OF HINDRANCES IN PLANTING MORE MISSIONS.
( Psalms 91:10 ) There shall no evil befall thee,
neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
a. King David feel safe the perfect protection of God to him. V 2 ' I will say of the Lord Ge is my refuge
"
( Psalms 91:1-2 ) 1 He that dwelleth in the secret
place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say of the LORD, He is my
refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

flieth by day.
( Psalms 91:5-6) 5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the
terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
6 Nor for the pestilence that
walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
e. The Lord send His legions of Angels to protect from those evil spirit

5. GOD PROMOTE THE MISSION-MINDED CHURCH MORE THAN THEY
EXPECT BECAUSE OF THEIR FAITHFULLNESS BEFORE GOD.

feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways.
