Because we possess the Gospel, we will surely be successful if we acquire just a little bit of the basics. Those who truly realized this were the 7 Remnants of the Bible. We must place this in our hearts and use our free time effectively. This is the time that Satan actively uses to attack us. Works will arise if we simply use our marginal time valuably. We must also efficiently make use of our time in the morning and evening. Just doing this well will place us 30% ahead of others. We must first make important resolutions in the areas that are difficult for us personally.
1. We must restore personal prayer
The majority of people complain that prayer does not really take place. Not being able to pray is the equivalent to not being able to utilize your personal time efficiently. Time spent with others is important but personal time spent alone is even more important. If we can pray on our own, unimaginable works will arise. Prayer does not take place with a desolate soul and heart. If we begin praying with a sound heart, we will gain amazing results. We will also gain the power of prayer once we know what kind of works take place when we pray. Moreover, we must find our own personal method of prayer before God. We are not only the missionaries to save the world; we were also called as the evangelists of the field. We must not waver as we remember this fact.
2. Ones entrusted with God’s mystery
Numerous Christians live with no sense of specialty. However, if we enjoy 24 hour prayer with spiritual strength, we will undoubtedly attain a 300% sense of specialty. There are extremely important internships hidden in the circumstances around us. If we do a good job of uncovering them, we will receive the answer of a sense of specialty. Likewise, Christians are unable to do the disciple movement in a practical way. Without a doubt there are those who have been planned for salvation and disciples prepared around us. We need only to discover those disciples, for which we must keep a few things in mind. First, we must possess a separate mystery that we receive from God. That is the Gospel of Christ. Second, we must have a different strength, which is the filling of the Holy Spirit. Third, we must possess the eyes to see disciples. We must carry out the commission of reinterpreting, recreating and reapplying all things through the Gospel. In addition, as evangelists to save the field, we must live the lives of evangelists. We must always seek out today’s Word, prayer and evangelism. Only then can we see the future and the age properly. We need only to undergo reformation according to our time schedule, acquire a few of the basics and be just a little ahead of others. Do not belittle or fear the world. Do not forget that God has called us as the missionaries to save the field.
