The World Needs You

Matthew 28:18-20

And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying all authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. 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 all things that I have commanded you; and now I am with you always even to the end of the age. Amen.

Here is something that you probably never heard before. We know that we need God, but did you know God needs you? Sound crazy? Check this out.

Since man left the garden of Eden, sin has been a problem. Sin has grown much more, and much faster than man. Over the years, God has tried to wake people up to the fact that they were sinful. Even the great flood didn't change man.

Since God created all men as His children, He had, and still has, a parental desire that they all come back to Him. For that reason, He sent prophets to teach man His way. It didn't work.

God then made the ultimate sacrifice, His only Son Jesus. We know what Jesus did, and how some people were saved. After His death and resurrection, He would no longer be on this earth. As today's verse tells us, He expects us to do His work in His place. We even have the same Holy Spirit that He had.

So here we are, 2000 years later. The world has an enormous number of people, and even more sin. Fortunately there is a decent number of God's people to reflect Jesus light to the world. Many are left that will be saved if we do our part. We are like farmers. Remember the parable of the sower? The world is the ground, and we are the sowers. So what seeds should we plant? We find the answer in Galatians 5:22-23.

Galatians 5:22-23

The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness (patience ), gentleness, self-control, against such there is no law.

These are some of the seeds that we plant, by our works,  in order for the Holy Spirit to make them grow. The time of the harvest is coming soon. Probably a lot sooner than any of us realize.

So it all comes down to this. The world needs Jesus, and we must do our part in helping everyone find Him. God bless you and your family. 

Praise the Lord!

Remember Jesus Loves You
