THE SECRET TO MOVING FORWARD IN GOD’S MINISTRY

Nowadays many of us face difficulties in moving forward in our respective Church ministries. Some people say that they can’t move forward in God’s ministry because they don’t have enough time or are too busy with their household, office and many other responsibilities.  There are actually many other reasons, which are commonly used to excuse themselves from getting involved in God’s ministry. Do you believe that all these excuses can be solved? How? If these problems can be solved, what are the solutions?

I will quote a few passages from the Bible to help us to move in God’s ministry. I believe through quoting these verses we will become more confident in our ministry. It’s not only to provide a conviction of our faith but it’s also to restore our strength in serving God after facing several failures. All of these verses will become our platform to keep us moving forward in God’s ministry, whether directly or indirectly. In other words to become “our secret” as to why we keep moving forward in God’s ministry without any doubts:

Jesus gave us very good examples about the mission which his father had given to him. Right at the beginning of His ministry, we knew that Jesus is sent by His father for a special task. We can see in John 4 : 32-34 “but he said to them, "I have food to eat that you know nothing about." Then his disciples said to each other, "Could someone have brought him food?”My food," said Jesus, "is to do the will of him who sent me and to finish his work”.  Jesus knew why he was in this world. I believe each one of us can do well in our mission if we really know why we are in this world. By knowing our purpose of life in this world will make us more serious with our time, profession and ministry. At the end of the day, we can say “Praise God I have done my best”.
