God's Global Purpose (Class #2)

This quote from the inside of a hut in Africa:
I AM A PART OF THE FELLOWSHIP COMMITTED TO DOING WHATEVER IT TAKES.
  • I have the Holy Spirt's power; the dye has already been cast. I've stepped over the line.
  • I'm out of the comfort zone.
  • The decision has been made. I am a disciple of Jesus Christ.
  • I won't look back, let up, slow down, or back away.
  • My past is redeemed, my present makes sense and my future is secure.
  • I'm finished and done with low living and sight walking and small planning and smooth knees and colorless dreams and tame visions and mundane talking and chintzy giving and dwarfed goals.

I AM A PART OF THE FELLOWSHIP COMMITTED TO DOING WHATEVER IT TAKES.

  • I no longer need popularity.
  • I don't have to be right.
  • I don't have to be first.
  • I don't have to be tops.
  • I don't have to be recognized, praised, regarded or rewarded.
  • I now live in His presence.
  • I live by faith.
  • I live by patience.
  • I live by prayer and I labor in power.

I AM A PART OF THE FELLOWSHIP COMMITTED TO DOING WHATEVER IT TAKES.

  • My face is set. My gaze is fast My goal is heaven.
  • My road is narrow. My way is rough. My companions are few. But my Guide is reliable and my mission is clear.
  • I cannot be bought or compromised or detoured or lured away.
  • I cannot be turned back or diluted.
  • I will not be delayed.
  • I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice, or hesitate in the presence of the adversary, or negotiate at the table of my enemy.

I AM A PART OF THE FELLOWSHIP COMMITTED TO DOING WHATEVER IT TAKES.

  • I will not ponder at the pool of popularity of meander in the maze called mediocrity.
  • I won't give up,
  • Or shut up,
  • Or let up,
  • Or burn up,
  • Until I've preached up,
  • Prayed up,
  • Paid up,
  • Stored up,
  • And stayed for the cause of Christ.

I AM A PART OF THE FELLOWSHIP COMMITTED TO DOING WHATEVER IT TAKES.

  • I am a disciple of Jesus Christ.
  • I must go until He comes, give until I drop.
  • I must preach until all know and work until God stops.

And when He comes to get His own, He will have no problem recognizing me because I'VE DEDICATED MY LIFE TO BEING A PART OF THE FELLOWSHIP COMMITTED TO DOING WHATEVER IT TAKES.
