Motivation For The Great CommissionSample
Day 4: Abide in the Presence of Jesus
The motivation and strength to accomplish the Great Commission is only available when we abide in the presence of Jesus. He is with us, and it is Christ’s power in His people that fulfills His plan.
This is less of a delegation and more of an intimate partnership, a vital union. Our task to partner with Jesus toward the fulfillment of the Great Commission—Lord willing, may that be soon!—is infused with His authority and promised presence.
