The Mission of God

“All peoples on earth will be blessed through you—Gen 12:3


The Bible says that all believers are to go into the whole world and preach the gospel to every creature. That doesn’t just mean a certain ethnic group has to go or Christians have to go from a certain country. It means that all believers have to obey and follow him. Wherever that is, whether it’s London, Japan or Siberia. It depends where God sends you. If you go where He is not sending you – you won’t be very effective. The bigger problem is that believers need to follow Christ and hear His voice. In Isaiah 30:21 it says ‘Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it” It is about you following Jesus with all your heart and are you doing what He told you to do.

Each Christian has to go where God is telling them to go. You see it with the Apostle Paul in Acts. He didn’t just make his own schedule; the Holy Spirit directed him. Conversely, it doesn’t mean we just sit in our home waiting for some great spiritual revelation to drop on you. There was an Australian Christian who always made hints that he wanted to be involved in missions, but he never went anywhere. One day he went in his bedroom, locked the door and prayed and said ‘God if you want me to be a missionary overseas then turn the light on and then I will know it’s a sign’. Nothing happened and he was much happier because he didn’t have to go anywhere! Does your life belong to you or does it belong to God? Is He the boss or are you the boss? Unfortunately most Christians, if the truth be told, are the boss of their own lives. We have our own desires, plans and money-making schemes – and God is a secondary part of that. Lots of people pray ‘these are my plans, please bless them’ instead of ‘show me your will and I’m willing to go anywhere and do anything’. If we pray that prayer then God knows if we really mean it or not. 

If He sees you do, then look out, you’ll be going somewhere soon and usually amazing things happen. Go, and God will show you where to go and what to do. It’s an imperative command. Not a request or an idea – it’s a command. So every person, including everyone who reads this article, will be judged on whether we obeyed the command or not.

Our passion is for the unreached peoples of Asia, these are the front lines of today. Although we are not sending westerners to the frontiers in Asia, we do work alongside national Christians who endeavor to evangelize the unreached people groups and plant the church where there is no church.

I am so encouraged by the work this brilliant organisation is doing. I would love to get more involved, i was involved in a non-evangelical charity trip to india in 2010 which was a brilliant experience but I feel that unless the gospel is proclaimed human efforts mean nothing. We really need to send more missionaries even to our own countries and abroad there are many lost who need the Lord.
Could I please get some info on your missions trips etc- again keep up the good work. God Bless. xx
