A recap on the homecoming service at Mt Horeb Baptsit Church that morning.
I shared with our Briggs Chapel family about my morning ride, the joys of being with our first church and some of the ministries that were started there. The globe,the shovel and the grandmother who thought "they picking up my grandkids that I can bring..."
The story of redemption is God sending servants — His messengers — to feed, lead and meet the greatest needs of those who trusted the messengers and the message and ministry He sent. Prefigures of a coming Christ, like Noah, Joseph, Moses — they were sent before them to keep them alive. We are proclaimers not prefigures — witnesses that have been sent to testify that He came to feed, lead and meet the greatest needs of His sheep. We bear witness to our Good Shepherd, Great Shepherd and Chief Shepherd. Who, as our good shepherd, came for His sheep, who, as our great shepherd, is committed to His sheep and who, as our chief, shepherd is coming for His sheep. For what? To feed, lead and meet our every need.
Next time some mentions they were born to do this or that… go ahead and acknowledge, appreciate and affirm their God given abilities or insight and then ask them what they've been reborn to do.
Their natural abilities are obvious… they were born to do it – but what have they been reborn for?
Ask them if they want to take what they've born to do to another level… tell them what you've been reborn to do…
