| "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” --- MATTHEW 28:19, 20 NIV |
Matthew 28 (the go and make disciples) passage was and is a FAVORITE memory verse for me.
But it was just lately that this MEMORY verse became a MANDATE to really do!
I'm not referring to the MAKE DISCIPLES line, but to the OF ALL NATIONS line.
The "OF ALL NATIONS" line seems to be so big!
So ambitious for a Philippine PROVINCIAL Church group to really pursue!
BUT I NOW REALIZE, "I am wrong!"
WHY?
- many are leaving our little PROVINCE now. (the brain drain thing)
- as they leave, they go ABROAD! (the greener pastures idea)
- as they are found there abroad ... they are incorporated immediately IN GREAT CHURCHES!
- NOTHING WRONG with being PART OF GROWING CHRISTIAN GROUP abroad ...
- BUT
- Why not? Fulfill a Higher Call? (read below)
THIS TIME, I am asking myself, "What if WE PREPARE THEM not just for PROSPERITY"
(to be natural TITHERS and GIVERS back home) ...
WHY not prepare them to be "PROPHETIC FULFILLMENT as EVANGELISTS to the NATIONS of the WORLD?!" Isn't this the CALLING of Christian Filipinos after all? Especially in these LAST DAYS SCENARIO?
The Filipinos are now NOT just WORKERS and SERVANTS to the WORLD but also
HOPE-BEARERS AND "Christophers" out there! HALLELUJAH!
I am so glad TODAY to see the results of yesterday's EQUIPPING!
YOU KNOW ... we are serious in DISCIPLE-MAKING for the glory of Jesus at His Life.We carefully disciple our Youth, Young Professionals, and Adults together with our growing Kids population.
NOW IS THE MOMENT to EMPOWER THEM! TO UNLEASH THEM. TO LET THEM ...
- Launch a LifeGroup!
- Start a Home Church!
- Begin a Worship Celebration or a Worship Experience on Foreign Soil.
Too much Equipping without Empowering IS A SIN! I believe so!
So now ... AFTER Equpping is PUSHING! Like Parent Eagles with the Eaglets.
As of this MOMENT we have the following being COACHED and MENTORED to really do the LSB Move**: Lets DO PRAY FOR THEM.
- NEW new new UPDATE (as of August 2013) Laumer Millan for His Life Qatar [UNWIND]. Laumer is together with Jacquie and Che2x in the prosperous land of Qatar. Laumer has invited people to meet with them in one of the finest hotels in Qatar [HOLIDAY VILLA] to begin a LIFEGROUP! Their TITHES may be used to Evangelize and Disciple people in this beautiful land. I referred Laumer to this article i wrote in the past ... CLICK HERE and READ #3d -- it addressed the TITHE suggestion (ARTICLE on the LSB MOVEMENT).
- Jacky Sanicas for His Life Qatar. She is already discipling other nationalities using the famous One2One booklet of our brothers and sisters from Victory Church. We will soon have our own Discipleship Booklet called "CROSSOVER". Jacky has completed her 12 in Bacolod and has already built her 144 Level before she left for Qatar. PRAY for supernatural wisdom, love and determination for Jacky and her 12 in Qatar.
- Ericka Gallespen for His Life Albany, Australia. She is one of our Youth Pastors here back home (in Bacolod), has launched LifeGroups; completed her 12 and built her 144 Level; and walking with an anointing like no other. A mighty lady for the Lord, due to God's indescribable grace! PRAY for prophetic eyes and a passion for the lost to be discipled in the Lord's way through Ericka and her 12 in Australia soon.
- John Eric Elevado for His Life Perth, Australia. John together with his wife will definitely launch a group that would behold the glory and goodness of God in due season. John Eric is an Intercessor; has trained young people upon young people through his contagious commitment to the simplicity of the Word of God. He has built up a 12 before leaving for Israel, then for Singapore years ago. Lets lift him AND wife (Giani) in prayer as they listen to the Lord for Perth Australia, building their 12 in God's kairos moment.
- Jhun Marby Orola for His Life Missisippi. Jhun has started discipling an AMERICAN co-worker and a PERUVIAN too. Let's Pray for the 1st Crossover Retreat soon :-) CLICK to see the PICTURE of Jhun here with a disciple of Jesus.
- THE LEGASPI'S for His Life Canada. Soon! Both Jun-Jun and Karleen are seasoned PASTORS of His Life Ministries! -They counsel, teach, preach, disciple, visit, follow-up, write manuals for series, organize workshops and seminars and etc. What do you think can they accomplish as they continue to move in the Vision God has all given us years back?
STAND IN THE GAP WITH THEM ... USING THIS GUIDE:
- PRAY that they will be in LOVE WITH GOD and with the NEW NATION God has placed them in to make a difference.
- PRAY that they will LOVE PEOPLE into the Kingdom of God, by being AGGRESSIVE to meet felt needs; be SENSITIVE to culture and on how to introduce JESUS the best way ever.
- PRAY that they will BUILD UP THEIR 12 within a span of 12 months.
- PRAY for them to OPEN a LIFEGROUP in a nearby diner, coffee shop or apartment weekly.
- PRAY that they will be like the Apostle PAUL who declared in Romans Chapter 1: "I am obligated"; "I am eager" and "I am not ashamed of the Gospel". These are the 3 qualities of POWERFUL MISSIONARIES!
- PRAY that their HARVEST will be so great, just like in the Book of Acts (from non-believers to believers to disciples to churches to the multitudes).
