Boot Camp 101(Pack Up & Ship Out Your Civies- Put On Your Uniform!) 06/01/14
$1 per day - $30 per month will give very basic support to a national missionary in Asia. • $4 to $12 per day - $120 to $360 per month will fully support a national missionary in Asia. • Matthew 25:35, 36, 40 (NKJV) For I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’ And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’ • Why do you think God has allowed us to be born in/live in America rather than among the poor of Africa & Asia & to be blessed with such material & spiritual abundance? • In light of the superabundance we enjoy here, what do you think is your minimal responsibility to the untold millions of lost & suffering in the Two-Thirds World?
Matthew 8:20 (NKJV) And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.” • 1 John 3:14, 17, 18 (NKJV) We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love his brother abides in death. But whoever has this world’s goods, and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him, how does the love of God abide in him? My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth. • If churches in America would give 10% of their income to missions, in the year 2000 this would have been nearly $10 billion to be used for missions! • 4,845 of the world’s 6,912 languages are still without a single portion of the Bible printed in their own language.
James 2:14-17 (NKJV) What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. Why did the Lord destroy Sodom? Because of pride! Ezekiel 16:49-50 (NKJV) Look, this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: She and her daughter had pride, fullness of food, and abundance of idleness; neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. And they were haughty and committed abomination before Me; therefore I took them away as I saw fit.
Ephesians 6:18 Principles Regarding Prayer – Prayer is the responsibility of every Royal Soldier. We need both individual & collective prayer.Prayer is the exploitation of opportunities offered us by God’s Grace. The effectiveness of the believer’s intercessory prayer is based on their being attired in the full armor from God.The sooner you grow to maturity (Super Grace), the greater your prayer life will be & the more productive your priestly function. In the field of prayer, every Christian Warrior is on Red Alert.When God opens a door, that door can be held open by prayer.
Ephesians 6:18 (Cont’d)A volunteer force of ALERT prayer warriors lays down the barrage of prayer - & prepared men & women move through that door to accomplish God’s purpose for their lives. Persistence; perseverance in prayer is one of the greatest ministries for any believer; any member of the Royal Family of God. MOST IMPORTANT – the true motivation for prayer has to be the Word of God resident in the soul of the believer. Prayer is your secret weapon – there is no excuse for spiritual retreat – HOLD YOUR GROUND! CONQUER!
