they went up into an upper room, where abode both Peter, and James, and John,
and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of
Alphaeus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James.
[14]These all continued with one
accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of
Jesus, and with his brethren.
[15]And in those days Peter stood
up in the midst of the disciples, and said, (the number of names together were
about an hundred and twenty,)
6. THE GODLY MEN AND WEMEN IN THE CHURCH MOTIVATE US TO
DO GREAT WORK IN THE MINISTRY OF THE LORD.
( Acts 6: 5-7 ) [5]And the saying pleased the
whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy
Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and
Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch:
[6]Whom they set before the
apostles: and when they had prayed, they laid their hands on them.
[7]And the word of God increased;
and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great
company of the priests were obedient to the faith.

( Matthew 9:35-38 ) [35]And Jesus went about all the
cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of

were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.

appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into
every city and place, whither he himself would come.
[2]Therefore said he unto them,
The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the
Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.
[3]Go your ways: behold, I send
you forth as lambs among wolves.

LOST PEOPLE TO GO TO HELL MOTIVATES US TO DO GREAT WORK IN THE MINISTRY OF THE
LORD.
( II Timothy 4:2-5 )
[2]Preach
the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all
longsuffering and doctrine.
[3]For the time will come when
they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap
to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
[4]And they shall turn away their
ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
[5]But watch thou in all things,
endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy
ministry.
10. THE SOON COMING OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST MOTIVATE TO
DO GREAT WORK IN THE MINISTRY OF THE LORD.

your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now;
[6]Being confident of this very
thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the
day of Jesus Christ:
( Matthew 24:45-47 )
[45]Who
then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his
household, to give them meat in due season?
[46]Blessed is that servant, whom
his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
[47]Verily I say unto you, That he
shall make him ruler over all his goods.
* God bless you all always *
