“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” (Acts 1:8 ESV)
Whether it is the Fast Food ‘drive thru’ employee passing you your burgers or the entire world (7.6+ Billion souls), Jesus’ passion is for the lost. If you do not yet have an aching burden to see lost souls reached, saved, and discipled by the Spirit of Jesus, then please get alone with God and beg Him for lost souls.
Ask Him to well up within you an overflowing passion for the hearts of men, women, and children. Seek and ask Him to burn into you a relentless burden to see none perish in the endless fires of Hell. (2Peter 3:9)
Luke 19:10 says, “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” (ESV) Now Jesus came here for many reasons (Read Psalm 146), but one is paramount. If the multitudes are warmed, sheltered, medicated, and fed and redemption through Christ’s shed blood on the Cross is not shared and achieved, how will this increase Heaven?
Great ministries help with these noble causes. Their work is vital. Yet, as important as these are, the work of salvation and spiritual growth must be centered in their operational DNA.
If someone cuts me, I want passion for lost souls to flow out. Just like it did and still does for Jesus.
Let’s pray this for each other today.
“19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:19-20 ESV)
