BE FULLY COMMITTED TO THIS COURSE
“But I put no value on my life, if only at the end of it I may see the work complete which was given to me by the Lord Jesus, to be a witness of the good news of the grace of God”.
Acts 20:24 (BBE)
There is so much I have shared with you on this platform, don’t hesitate to share your thoughts and how you have been blessed in the comment section.
You can also send an email to me via apostlebennie@
Today I want you to patiently think about these:
Are you committed to the course of Christ? And if yes, why?
Are you pushing beyond your comfort and self-interest, just to see lives saved and transformed, no matter the cost involved?
Do you think going all out for the Lord is a waste of time?
Certainly Not!!!
Do you think it is unnecessary to give financially into kingdom assignment?
Do you think those who give bountifully don’t have anything else to use the money for?
What more is worth your money than the Lord’s assignment?
What more is worth your time than the Lord’s mandate?
What more is worth your skill, intelligence, and resources?
“With all this going for us, my dear, dear friends, stand your ground. And don’t hold back. Throw yourselves into the work of the Master, confident that nothing you do for him is a waste of time or effort” 1 Corinthians 15:57 (The Message)
Beloved, this kingdom business has been God’s business all this while. (2 Corinthians 5:19)
He desires that all men will be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth (1 Timothy 2:4).
Our Lord first made a great sacrifice:
“Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: [And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.” Philippians 2:6-8 (Amplified Bible).
Jesus being fully God, He lowered Himself to become man and humbled Himself to suffer the death of the cross.
It wasn’t for nothing!!
He sacrificed all He is and all that He’s got just to die this death of shame for mankind. There must be something more important about His death for Him to leave all that glory to become man and to die for man.
It is this same thing that moved Jesus to the cross, which is moving us to do all we have to do according to the grace given us.
The adversary’s strategy is to sow seeds of doubt in your heart to distract you.
Don’t give space for the adversary to corrupt your desire for the Lord and His work.
There is a cry in the soul of this generation and beyond for hope and salvation.
How beautiful it is that in this crooked and dark generation, you become the light to many.
In a generation where people are departing from the faith, becoming lovers of self and money; you have chosen to stand up for the course of Christ.
Don’t make excuses. Don’t be part of those who seek their own gain.
Decide to stand out and shine forth.
“Get out of bed, Jerusalem! Wake up. Put your face in the sunlight. God’s bright glory has risen for you. The whole earth is wrapped in darkness, all people sunk in deep darkness, But God rises on you, his sunrise glory breaks over you. Nations will come to your light, kings to your sunburst brightness”
Isaiah 60:1-3 (MSG)
Jesus said, as long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. (John 9:5)
This same ministry of God in Christ Jesus is your ministry today. (2 Corinthians 5:17-18)
Every single contribution is important and needful unto satisfying God’s dream.
Leave no stone unturned. Take advantage of the Holy Spirit inspired and directed ability within you to turn on the divine course in many.
Certain people wouldn’t be reached out to until you step out to reach them. The Lord will demand their blood from you. (Ezekiel 3:18; Acts 20:26)
Don’t sit to watch a generation destroyed.
Until YOU get involved, a particular soul will not be reached.
They can only hear to receive the Lord, only when you go to preach.
“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?” (Romans 10:13-14)
Many more are depending on your sacrifices, bold steps, relentless decisions, uncompromising choices, and unconditional Love of Christ.
Be compelled by the Love of Christ.
Don’t only preach, put your money into GOD’S AGENDA. God’s AGENDA will be financed through GOD’S OWN PEOPLE.
Be a faithful steward of God and partner with spreading the gospel of our Lord Jesus.
Pray also for the salvation of souls in your community, in your city, in your town, in your school, in your workplace, in your family, in your country, your continent and the whole world.
Don’t go on your knees in prayer only for your personal needs. You are a royal priest in Christ. Fulfill that priestly mandate.
Decide to be a CONDUIT FOR THE SPREAD OF THE GOSPEL BY TAKING PRACTICAL STEPS.
Hallelujah!!!
DIG DEEPER
(Matthew 4:16; Isaiah 9:6; Philippians 2:30; 1 Corinthians 16:10; Galatians 6:17; Acts 20:24; 2 Corinthians 12:15)
WE PRAY
That our hearts shall not grow weary in doing good. And we shall see many come into the light as we shine the light of the glory of God in our generation to see many transformed in all wisdom and power.

What more is worth your money than the Lord’s assignment?
What more is worth your time than the Lord’s mandate?
“With all this going for us, my dear, dear friends, stand your ground. And don’t hold back. Throw yourselves into the work of the Master, confident that nothing you do for him is a waste of time or effort” 1 Corinthians 15:57 (The Message).
Wow! There’s nothing I do for the Lord which is a waste of time or effort.
