Are You A Part Of The Pull?

Are you doing your part to pull in those that need rescuing into the house of God?

Often times there are people that say "I love Jesus"...

I love Jesus too and I'm glad you do, but ARE YOU DOING YOUR PART WITH THE PULL? You're part of making a difference in the lives of those that need rescuing and in the church itself as Jesus would have us to all do.

And then people say "Bless God, I've been in the church since 1960-whatever" and praise God I rejoice with you! But I simply want to ask you a question: ARE YOU A PART OF THE PULL?!

Are you helping in the pull?

Some people are great talkers but not they're not doers.

Some people say "Are you questioning my relationship with God?" And no, that is not what I'm doing at all, I just need to ask you a question regardless..

ARE YOU STILL A PART OF THE PULL?!

Some people say "I like to sing certain songs to the Lord because it makes me feel good" And I am so happy for you but I still have a question for you...

ARE YOU A PART OF THE PULL?!

Some people say with tears of joy "I'm so grateful that I'm saved!" And I'm happy for you and I'll cry a good cry with you, but I just gotta ask you...

ARE YOU A PART OF THE PULL?!

It's biblical and scriptural for you and I to be part of the pull! For example the bible in Ephesians 4:16 reads "from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love."

Now, if I were to change that up a little bit it to help you understand, it would go like this: "Joined together, every part does it's pull..." It's PULL!

Your PULL makes the difference!

Get your "AS" in gear!

Jesus said "GO therefore and make disciples of all nations" (Matthew 28:19), he didn't say "yo" he said "GO"! In the original language it means "AS you are going." So this is what Jesus was really saying "Get your AS in gear!" That's what he was really saying...very biblical;-)

AS you are going...

AS you're with your family

AS you are living your life

AS you're at work

AS you're at the golf course

AS you're playing tennis

AS you're playing basketball

AS you're shopping

AS you're doing whatever, wherever, however, with whomever...SHARE JESUS WITH OTHERS...AS you are going! Get your AS in gear!

When you try to use that statement, diction is VERY important, don't slur your words! I don't know why, but I feel that is very important for me to tell you;-)

See, you have been placed where you are and planted where you are to share your story. So get to it and get your AS in gear today!

SPEAK UP!

Jeremiah 1:5-7 (New Living Translation)
5 “I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb.
Before you were born I set you apart
and appointed you as my prophet to the nations.”
6 “O Sovereign Lord,” I said, “I can’t speak for you! I’m too young!”
7 The Lord replied, “Don’t say, ‘I’m too young,’ for you must go wherever I send you and say whatever I tell you.

Don't underestimate yourself. God will give you the words. All we need to do is open our mouth.

HIS MASTERPIECE

Ephesians 2:10 (New Living Translation)
10 For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.

God has a plan for us. He created us with purpose in mind. We are His Masterpiece, His Artwork, His design. He wants us to reach the dream that he has for us!

JUST STEP

James 1:22 (New Living Translation)
22 But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves.

"You are chosen for your abilities & your potential, not your experience. There is a NEW thing that God needs us to step into!" -Calvena Moe

Let's decide to Step into that NEW thing that God has for us! Let's change our ways from just 'hearing' what God is saying to 'doing' what it is He is saying.

Don't Be a Dead-Sea Christian

This bears repeating: "MY HAND IS GODS HAND"

Pastor Joe Onosai ministered again about our hands being Gods hands.

Let us NOT be like the Dead Sea. Let us NOT sit in church week after week, service after service taking it all in, soaking up the Word... and then going home and forgetting all about it - Never applying it. The Dead Sea is called the Dead Sea because it is so salty that nothing can live in it. Everything runs into the Dead Sea, but nothing goes out. It becomes stagnant. If we continue to sit in church and never Reach Out, never Share the Word with someone else, then we become stagnant - Dead.

Proverbs 3:27 (The Message)
^27-29 Never walk away from someone who deserves help;
your hand is God's hand for that person.
Don't tell your neighbor "Maybe some other time"
or "Try me tomorrow"
when the money's right there in your pocket.
Don't figure ways of taking advantage of your neighbor
when he's sitting there trusting and unsuspecting.

HIS HANDS ARE OUR HANDS

"Gods hand is your hand. God uses people to touch people. Look at your hand and say: ‘Hand, you are Gods hand'." -Pastor Joe Onosai

Proverbs 3:27 (The Message)^27-29 Never walk away from someone who deserves help; your hand is God's hand for that person. Don't tell your neighbor "Maybe some other time" or "Try me tomorrow" when the money's right there in your pocket. Don't figure ways of taking advantage of your neighbor when he's sitting there trusting and unsuspecting.

God cannot do anything unless it is through us. Allow God to use you today. Allow him to bring breakthrough and miracles to others THROUGH you.

FOR LOVE OR FOR MONEY

2Corinthians 5:14 (New International Version)

¹⁴For Christ's love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died.

"It should be the Love of Christ that Compels us, not our personal gain." -Wally Matanza [2 Corinth 5:14]

How many people would you share Jesus with if you were given $100 per person? Why is it that we are more motivated by Money and not because of the Love of Christ all by itself?

"GIVE UP" IS NOT AN OPTION

"Make 'Quit' no longer an option in your life" -Dr. Jerry Savelle.

Galatians 6:9 (tmb)
So let's not allow ourselves to get fatigued doing good. At the right time we will harvest a good crop if we don't give up, or quit. Right now, therefore, every time we get the chance, let us work for the benefit of all, starting with the people closest to us in the community of faith.

When things get tough, that's when you know that your breakthrough is near - that is when you know that your miracle is about to manifest, so stand your ground! Don't give up! remind yourself of Gods promises to you and your family.

Ask yourself: "What motivates me when tough situations arise?"

We should all settle in our hearts that 'Giving up' is NOT an option anymore!
