July Topic: Mission - The Call Of God |
This month I want to remind us What ON EARTH We should be doing! And What is our FATHER'S heartbeat? What is His greatest desire? |
1 Timothy 2:4
GOD WANTS ALL MEN TO BE SAVED AND COME TO A KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH
This is the fundamental desire of God.
Some say, "What is the meaning of life?" I say, "this is it!" Everything else that happens on earth is secondary to this. This is the great 'plan' of God. This is the whole reason for Calvary, for Bethlehem, for Moriah, for putting the angel to guard the way to the Tree of Life. There is no "greater plan!" - there is no other "Grand design" - this is it! Plan A - there is no Plan B!
Until we, like the Apostle Paul, grasp this truth we shall, forever, be "looking in the wrong place" and trying to achieve something which is at best only secondary to the real plan, purpose and heart's desire of God.
Why is it God's No. 1 plan? Because He loves His Son so much He planned to have millions upon millions more of "them". He sees every new baby with the potential of being "like Jesus" - not only in heaven but on earth too. God looks at you and expects you to be like Jesus - someone He loves to talk with, walk with and be with. He sees phenomenal potential in you. Isn't that terrific? Doesn't that thrill your heart and soul?
Well, He sees your neighbours in exactly the same "light", in just the same way. God wants all men to be saved and come to a knowledge of the truth. He will do all He can to make sure that happens - and that is one reason you are living next door to and opposite your neighbours. That's why you have the job you have and mix with the people you mix with at work and at sport. You are part of that plan of God's that they should be saved. We either run with the plan or thwart the Will of God.
People only end up in Hell because they make a deliberate, conscious decision to do so.
How do I know? Because God wants all men to be saved and come to a knowledge of the truth!
