What's Your Mission?
John the Baptist's mission was clear. And his mission is the foundation of the mission we have.
What’s your mission?
Zechariah and Elizabeth’s kid would have his mission spelled out for him.
I’ve never experienced this.
What I do know is our mission has the same threads as John the Baptist’s…
Turn people to the Lord their God.
Turn the hearts of fathers to the children.
Turn the disobedient to the wisdom of the just.
Make people ready for the Lord…a people prepared.
Your mission is not to make Christians comfortable. In fact, part of John’s mission was to make the religious realize they were disobedient alongside the non-religious.
Your mission is to prepare the way for the Lord to come into people’s lives. So they can see his mercy and grace. So the religious can see the judgement coming to them. So those far from God realize he is close to them.
