Life On Mission

30天中的第30天

The disciples behaved with courage and boldness and Peter takes the opportunity after the Holy Spirit is released to them to declare the truth about Jesus (Acts 3:12-4:21). It wasn’t just a lesson he taught but there was a demonstration of the power of God. This behavior gets Peter thrown into jail with a stern rebuke to stop talking about Jesus. These weren’t hollow threats. These were the same leaders that led the charge against Jesus and successfully had Him crucified.

At this point many of us would be very tempted to tame down the message, go into hiding or let someone else be bold for a moment. However, Peter, was not that type of guy. With their reputations on the line, they meet and pray.

Only courage can make you respond like that. It’s going to take people with courage like that to reach people far from God. This is the posturing that a people of influence need to have. We have been rescued to rescue. The boldness and courage that it took others to introduce us to Jesus needs to be embodied afresh in our lives.

Your mission is to live in the reality of your transformed life from here on out. Embody what you have learned. You are released to extend the love of God with passion, boldness and courage.

Life On Mission

Welcome to the Life on Mission devotional. We can often get overwhelmed with the demands of life and chaos of our world. We quickly forget that God has a mission for us while on earth. There are amazing things for you to see, do and accomplish and God empowers you to do all of them. This devotional is meant to get your life out of a rut and onto God’s mission for your life. Every third day there will be a “mission” for you to apply to your life. We’re God’s people, on a mission, to reflect his goodness to the entire world. Let’s do this!
