The Master's Work

I have missed some of God’s greatest blessings most of my life.
This was because, I did not actively share my faith with others.

Now, I want to make a difference,

I want to do my part of The Master’s Work.

Today we could answer these two questions;

Will we make a difference?
Will we have a part in our Master’s work?

The two most important commands found in the Bible;

“The Great Commandment” and “The Great Commission”.

Matthew 22:37 (KJV) “The Great Commandment”

Jesus said unto him,
“Thou shalt love the Lord thy God
with all thy heart, and
with all thy soul, and
with all thy mind.”

Matthew 28:19 (KJV) “The Great Commission”

Jesus spake unto them,
” Go ye therefore, and teach all nations,
baptizing them in the name
of the Father, and
of the Son, and
of the Holy Ghost:”
 

Who should go?  We may have different abilities and callings, but

All Christians have a part in the calling of others to follow Christ.

Everyone can participate as a seed sower or as a seed provider.

“The Gospel of John” a true story. John witnessed the life, death
and resurrection of Jesus. An eyewitness account, that has stood
the test for thousands of years. This story has made the difference
to millions of lives around the world. It is a story that will help you
have a personal relationship with God.

I will explain how using the pocket gospel of John will help
you share your faith easily, effectively and with confidence.

This is a simple time proven method started over a hundred
years ago.

A shy teenage girl named Helen Cadbury found that when her
friends would read God’s Word, they would come to faith in
Jesus Christ. This started Helen bringing the big family Bible
to school, showing it to her friends, who read it, and many
came to faith. Her dad did not want Helen bringing the family
Bible to school every day. Their family Bible contained marriage
and birth certificates. So, Mr. Cadbury provided Helen with some
pocket sized testaments. Helen’s friends sewed pockets on their
dresses to carry the Gospels and they formed a League calling it

“The Pocket Testament League”.

To become a member, they agreed to;

Read some portion of the gospel every day,
Carry the gospel in their pocket, and
Share the gospel with someone.

Thus, the motto of "Read, Carry and Share".

The Pocket Testament League is helping people like
you too share their faith in an easy and pleasant way.

I realized for me to share my faith,

I needed to really know and love God.

John 15:10&11 (KJV)

“If ye keep my commandments,
ye shall abide in my love;
even as I have kept my Father's commandments,
and abide in his love.”

“These things have I spoken unto you,

that my joy might remain in you, and
that your joy might be full.”

We demonstrate our love for Jesus by obeying His commandments.

We cannot really love God if we do not know Him.

Reading His Word is a great way to really know and love Him.

I know that reading my Bible first thing in the morning,

gives my day a good start and I have a more joyful day.

This Gospel of John is a wonderful summary of the life of Christ. 

Just a little reading from this book every day will give you the

confidence to share our faith with someone you care about.

We may get an opportunity to share the entire plan of salvation.
 

Most of us probably came to know Jesus Christ when a friend

or someone we knew and respected shared their faith with us.

Let me share just a few of the many ways that people

who use these little Gospels are spreading God’s word:

1.  Begin sharing by doing some of your gospel reading
while you are waiting in line or while in a waiting room.
Then, offer your gospel book to someone else to read
while they are waiting.

2.  Traveling on Airplanes, Trains, Buses or Cruise Ships
will give you a great opportunity to share a Gospel Book to
the passenger next to you. This is a good opportunity to get
to know someone and do a one on one sharing of the gospel.

3.  If you take walks carry some of these Gospels in your
pocket, and let God provide you with opportunities to share
with others.

4.  A business owner got a small stand and filled it
with some free Gospels and put it in his checkout area.

5.  Elderly people unable to leave their home can mail
Gospels to pen pals or whoever comes to their front door
receives a free gospel.

I think the best sharing method is to carry a gospel in your

pocket and when God brings someone to you that needs the

Word of God, you’ve “got it” to give. 

If we are praying and carrying these Gospels daily then,

God will provide the opportunity for you to share His gospel.

The hardest part about this sharing method is remembering

to put a gospel in your pocket every day.

I suggest that you dedicate a pocket to the Lord.

IT can be a pocket in your clothing, or a purse.
By having a Gospel nearby you are ready and able to share.

When you share your faith your relationship with God grows.

Your life becomes more meaningful and you will experience
the joy of doing for others.

Now is the time for you to make a difference,

will you take your part of the Masters Work :
Read some portion of the gospel every day,
Carry the gospel in your pocket or purse, and
Share it with someone as God provides that
opportunity for you to make a difference.

When you give someone a Gospel, you give them the

opportunity to become saved. You have provided them

with a tool for their salvation. Our job is to invite everyone

and let God determine the keepers.

You may obtain gospels at;www.ptl.org/?sponsorcd=395591
if you want to be a seed sower and a donation

does not currently fit your budget, just ask to
be sponsored. The League does not let financial
issues keep anyone from sharing the Gospel.  
Other League members are seed providers and
will cheerfully sponsor those sowers sharing the
Gospel. Those of you that wish to help off-set the
costs of printing and shipping a small donation
will be appreciated when you order the Gospels
of your choice. All Christians have a part in the
calling of others to follow Christ and some of you
may rather be a seed provider and that is welcomed.

So Remember; place your church information label
on each Gospel to invite everyone to visit your church.

Let us pray;

Father God,
help us have a daily habit of reading Your Word.
We ask that you to work through us as we tell many
people about the joy of our Christian Fellowship.
We thank you for thank you for these tools of salvation
and ask for your protection as we serve you.
In Jesus' precious Name I ask these things. Amen

Your Part In His Work

Good Morning Church,
Thank You Lord Jesus Christ for giving us this day,
for this fellowship of believers, Thank you Jesus,
for providing us food and shelter, Thank you Jesus,

Who is Jesus ?

A Village Carpenter from Nazareth of Palestine. A Baptized
thirty year old man spending many days in the wilderness. A
homeless Galilaean teacher walking the roads between villages.
The human born sinless, the holiest man ever born.

John 1:11 (KJV)
He came unto his own, and his own received him not.

Matthew 8:20 (KJV)
And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes,

and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son
of man hath not where to lay his head.

Christ, proclaimed his own poverty, The very foxes and birds,

says he, have places of shelter, but the Son of man has no home,
and no pillow. He is a stranger in his own world; a wanderer
and an outcast from the dwellings of man.

Jesus came here to seek and save the poor, the lost, the sinner.

Christ tells us to come to Him, to believe in Him, and trust in Him,

and in Him only for our salvation. Doing this He will give us rest

from our sins; from the burden of our conscience, and from the

fear of eternal separation from all that is good.

Matthew 11:28-30 (KJV)
Jesus said, “Come unto me, all ye that labour

and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me;
for I am meek and lowly in heart:
and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”  

I am praying that my words will give you

hope and faith in our Lord Jesus.

My prayers are for you to hear what really matters and too know

that with all your hardships you do have a part in the Masters work. 

The two most important commands in the Bible are;

“The Great Commandment” and “The Great Commission”

“The Great Commandment” (Matthew 22:37 KJV)

Jesus said unto him,
Thou shalt love the Lord thy God
with all thy heart, and
with all thy soul, and
with all thy mind.

We demonstrate our love for Jesus by obeying His commands.

He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them,

he it is that loveth me:
and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father,
and I will love him,
and will manifest myself to him. (John 14:21 KJV)

We cannot really love God if we do not know Him. Reading

His Word is a great way for you to really know and love Him.

“The Gospel of John” a true story. John witnessed the life,

death and resurrection of Jesus. An eyewitness account,

that has been tested for two thousand years. This story has

made the difference to millions of lives around the world.

It is a story that, will help you know God and have a better life.

Pray for God’s help for a daily habit of reading His Word.

1 John 4:7 (KJV)
Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and

every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

God is love, we must feel love for our God and that helps

 us to love each other. The proof of our love for God is our
obedience to these commands of God.

“The Great Commission” (Matthew 28:19 KJV)

Jesus spake unto them;
Go ye therefore, and
teach all nations,
baptizing them in the name
of the Father, and
of the Son, and
of the Holy Ghost:
 
All Christians have a part in the telling others of the Good News.
Our job is to be His messengers and bring His truth to everyone.

When you share your faith your relationship with God grows

and your life becomes more meaningful. I think the best sharing
method is to Read some portion of the gospel every day, Carry a
gospel in your pocket, and when God brings someone to you that
needs the Word of God, you have good news to Share with them.

Remember this Bible verse;

John 3:16 (KJV)
For God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish,
but have everlasting life.
John 3:16 (KJV)

This verse is God’s word telling you; That God so loved you

that he gave up His only begotten son, that if you believe in Him,

you will not die, but have everlasting life.

Are you going to Heaven because someone cared enough to share Jesus.

Who have you cared enough to tell? Who are you taking to Heaven with you?

Do you think you could share Jesus with somebody that you care about ?

Scripture "The More of  Him"

The more, you will read of  Him,
The more, you will know of  Him,

The more, you will appreciate of  Him,

The more, you will love of  Him,

The more, you will worship of  Him,

The more, you will hear of  Him,

The more, you will see of  Him.

(Contentment comes as you have more of  Him)

What Matthew 18:18 means to me;
The goal of knowing the bible is knowing God.

Obedience is the way you love God with all your soul.

Your life is your translation of the bible.

The version you take with you is the one you have lived.

Are we missing some of God's greatest blessings ?

Most of my life I have missed some of God's greatest blessings,
because I was not fulfilling His commission to share my faith.

Matthew 28:19 KJV; Go ye therefore, and teach all nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son,
and of the Holy Gost.

Who should go ? All of us have a part in the calling of
others to follow Christ.

We may have different roles and abilities, but by sharing
our faith we are submitting to the authority of Christ.

If you knew how to share your faith without fear,
would you share your faith ?

The church grows as people share their faith.

Sharing your Christian faith will grow your church
and change your life plus the lives of others.

I realized my first step in sharing my faith is to really
love God.

One of the ways we can demonstrate our love for
Jesus Christ in our life is by obeying His Commands.

We cannot love God if we do not know Him.

Reading His Word is a great first step to know and love Him.

I know that by reading my bible first thing in the morning,
 gives my day a good start and I always feel better.
