MULTIPLYING HARVESTERS MATTHEW 10:5-10 FAITH TO SEE THE KINGDOM
2
MATTHEW 10 5 THESE TWELVE JESUS SENT OUT WITH THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS: ‘DO NOT GO AMONG THE GENTILES OR ENTER ANY TOWN OF THE SAMARITANS. 6 GO RATHER TO THE LOST SHEEP OF ISRAEL.
3
MATTHEW 10 7 AS YOU GO, PROCLAIM THIS MESSAGE: “THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN HAS COME NEAR.” 8 HEAL THOSE WHO ARE ILL, RAISE THE DEAD, CLEANSE THOSE WHO HAVE LEPROSY, DRIVE OUT DEMONS. FREELY YOU HAVE RECEIVED; FREELY GIVE.
4
MATTHEW 10 9 ‘DO NOT GET ANY GOLD OR SILVER OR COPPER TO TAKE WITH YOU IN YOUR BELTS – 10 NO BAG FOR THE JOURNEY OR EXTRA SHIRT OR SANDALS OR A STAFF, FOR THE WORKER IS WORTH HIS KEEP…
5
THE MESSAGE YOU HAVE BEEN TREATED GENEROUSLY, SO LIVE GENEROUSLY. DON’T THINK YOU HAVE TO PUT ON A FUND- RAISING CAMPAIGN BEFORE YOU START. YOU DON’T NEED A LOT OF EQUIPMENT. YOU ARE THE EQUIPMENT, AND ALL YOU NEED TO KEEP THAT GOING IS THREE MEALS A DAY. TRAVEL LIGHT.
6
FAITH TO REPRODUCE JESUS COMMISSIONS THEM TO: PREACH THE SAME MESSAGE DO THE SAME MINISTRY HE DID LIVE BY THE SAME GRACE LIVE FROM THE SAME SOURCE
7
ANNOUNCING THIS KINGDOM IS PART OF MAKING IT COME JESUS SAID…, ‘LET THE DEAD BURY THEIR OWN DEAD, BUT YOU GO AND PROCLAIM THE KINGDOM OF GOD.’LUKE 9:60 OLD FASHIONED “HERALD” THE DECLARATION BRINGS INTO FORCE A NEW LAW OR RULE
8
GRACE HAS BEEN MADE AVAILABLE “FREELY YOU HAVE RECEIVED, FREELY GIVE.” THE CENTRE AND THE TOTALITY OF THE KINGDOM IS A GIFT CALLED GRACE.
9
A MAGNIFICENT BANQUET PREPARED BY A KING. WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO IS DECIDE WHETHER YOU WILL ACCEPT THE INVITATION OR NOT.
10
DISCIPLES ARE ONLY MADE THE WAY JESUS MADE THEM 24 ‘THE STUDENT IS NOT ABOVE THE TEACHER, NOR A SERVANT ABOVE HIS MASTER. 25 IT IS ENOUGH FOR STUDENTS TO BE LIKE THEIR TEACHERS, AND SERVANTS LIKE THEIR MASTERS.
11
THE PROCESS OF JESUS IN REAL, ACCOUNTABLE COMMUNITY LEARNING THE HABITS AND PATTERNS OF JESUS MINISTERING THROUGH THE GIFTS PRODUCING THE FRUIT/LOVE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT TAKING REAL RISKS WITH REAL REWARDS
12
“YOU ARE THE EQUIPMENT!” UNTIL YOU HAVE LEARNT TO MINISTER WITHOUT EARTHLY RESOURCES YOU WILL NEVER SAFELY KNOW HOW TO PROPERLY MINISTER WITH THEM. WHAT YOU HAVE RECEIVED AND CARRY CAN NEVER BE BOUGHT – IT IS PRICELESS. THIS KINGDOM IS CONTAGIOUS!
13
CHURCH IF WE ONLY DO THIS… WHO WILL WE NEVER REACH?
14
COMMUNITY AM I GOING TO ENTER REAL, MESSY COMMUNITY? AM I GOING TO TRUST THAT GOD’S LOVE CAN DO FOR THEM WHAT I SO DESPERATELY NEED HIM TO DO IN ME?
15
PERSONAL WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE WHEN THE POWER OF GOD’S LOVE POURS INTO THE CENTRE OF YOUR BEING? WILL I POSITION MYSELF TO RECEIVE IT? WILL I EMBRACE THE LIFESTYLE HABITS OF JESUS SO THAT I CAN RECEIVE THE GRACE THAT IS TRULY FREE? WHAT CAN I DO TO GIVE IT AWAY?
