Oracle
Jesus was absolutely confident that the Great Commission would be achieved. He said in Matthew 24:14: "And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come." I wonder how soon that wil be?
The Lord also calls us to be absolutely confident He will help us as we carry out the mission. He promised in Matthew 28:20, "And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." He promises that His authority and power will be with us as we carry out this Great Commission. I suppose that means He will show up as we share the good news of Christ! Do you have a story of how the Lord was with you as you shared the good news?
Lord, I pray that you will send out workers into your harvest. Check out this song by one of my heroes back in the day or video of the need in Africa. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHjdRDBS25k
