Love was the bedrock of Jesus' life, the very reason He came to seek and save the lost.

Rediscover the real meaning of the Great Commission. Beginning in our own prayer and devotional lives, we must begin to feel the compassion of the Lord for a lost and dying world. As we have already seen, the Great Commission is not something that was given to a tiny group of specially trained and educated envoys. It was given to all Christians—to the whole Church. It is something that we are all to be engaged in naturally every day.

The secret of following God's will, I discovered, usually is wrapped up in rejecting the good for God's best.

Maybe it doesn't seem like anyone ever watches or appreciates you. Maybe no one on earth understands you. But your King is always watching you. Do it all for Him.

When our service for the Lord becomes so busy that we forget the Lord Himself, it is time to stop everything and seek Him.

My plea to the Body of Christ is while we must do all we can to meet the needs of the suffering and dying millions, we must not see these activities as a substitute for evangelism and establishing churches among the unreached.

It is a lifelong choice to deliberately and habitually bring ourselves under God’s authority.
