Bible

“God is doing a new thing” Isaiah 43 = We learn from the past, but present to what He is doing

History of moves of God:

  1. Moravian Prayer Movement = Missions Movement to unreached
  2. Azusa Street Revival = Pentecostal Missions Movement

As we steward what God is doing in the house, He is calling us to live “Commissioned” into the world

Disciples = obedient to the commands of Christ
*Makings disciples (Matthew 28:16-20, Mark 16:14-20)
*Leading someone on that journey = Must be commissioned

How to live Commissioned?

  1. Power (Acts 1:8)
    1. “A church of power, not just wisdom” – Ps. Jacob
  2. Servanthood (John 2:1-11)
  3. Holiness (John 4) (James 1:27, Phil. 2:12-18)
  4. Be a Witness (John 5)
  5. Love (Matthew 22:34-40, Mark 12:28-31)

Commissioned into practical steps:

Basic – become informed on ways to serve locally and through our missions program

Baseline – go serve one time (community organization, evangelism Life Group, Trip)

Build – consistently pray for and give towards outreaches and missions
