Vision Without Boundaries by yommyuk: 8:17am On Jun 28, 2014
I am persuaded that many of our goals and dreams fail simply because we place limitations upon ourselves. This is true for the church as well—Christ’s command to share the gospel is an example.
Jesus gave us the vision to tell all nations about His salvation, and as His followers, we should make this our aim. Many Christians, however, are not working to fulfill this “Great Commission”—at least not fervently and purposefully. Often, what holds us back are the boundaries we place upon ourselves.

FEAR
Fear is one of the biggest self-erected barriers to success. For instance, if evangelizing means traveling overseas, lack of safety might worry us. We may also feel concern about how family and friends will react to our decision and whether people will react negatively to our message.

CONDITIONAL OBEDIENCE
Another hindrance might be conditional obedience—that is, a willingness to serve as long as God keeps us in a particular location or has us minister in a country where we don’t have to learn a new language. And some people make the inconvenience of spending money, time, or effort into an obstacle that prevents service to the Lord.
There are many barriers that can keep us from sharing the gospel. But when we’re willing to tear those down, we’ll be amazed at what God can accomplish through us.
Are you passionately sharing the gospel? If not, identify the obstruction that stands in your way, and pray for forgiveness. Refocus by reading the Word and remembering the mission that Jesus gave you. God’s love covers the whole world, and He therefore intends that everyone hear the good news.

Mark 16:15
And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.

Exodus 4:10-12
But Moses said to the Lord, “Oh, my Lord, I am not eloquent, either in the past or since you have spoken to your servant, but I am slow of speech and of tongue.” Then the Lord said to him, “Who has made man's mouth? Who makes him mute, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Is it not I, the Lord? Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall speak.”


Amos 3:7
“For the Lord God does nothing without revealing his secret to his servants the prophets.

Acts 18:9
And the Lord said to Paul one night in a vision, “Do not be afraid, but go on speaking and do not be silent

It is well. God bless wink
