I don’t want to neglect other missions in this so I want to make it clear that God is using many organizations and means - not just Every Home Crusade, but I guess having worked there for around 8 years (I’ve sort of lost count), I not only love what Christ is doing through it but believe that it is an integral part of His plan to reach the lost and make disciples.

To finish with; There’s another reason that I believe This mission that we’ve been invited on cannot fail.
Turn with me to Revelation 5:9 The Apostle John is seeing the future here and he wrote this so that we could see Christ’s victory! And here in Chapter 5 as He sees the throne room of God he says of those who are gathered there; Verse 9 & 10
"And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.”
So as we get this sort of sneak preview of the future, we see that in song it is declared that Christ has redeemed, or for us now that He will redeem some from EVERY kindred, tongue, people and nation!
So as we see this event in the future it is evident that World Missions will succeed and one day we ill gather with many others to sing that song!
But lets come back to the present; In declaring the success of missions and the unfailing great commission we are by no means given excuse to kick back, sit down or retire from this task.God in His sovereignty has declared that “it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe”., He says “How shall they hear without a preacher”And Jesus when He spoke the great commission said “GO”.
God is using and is going to use people who commit to reaching the lost, He has raised and will raise up people who are passionate about spreading His fame and renown throughout the entire world.
For us here it is a privilege to have the opportunity to be a part of this and to, God willing continue to be a part of this unfailing goal of missions!
And may we commit to earnestly pray, not just for EHC, but for all missions, all outreach and the continuing task of reaching the lost, may we commit to serving, to supporting, to fervently seeking to glorify Christ and reach the unbelieving and those who’ve never heard with this Gospel that they may know Jesus Christ and Him Crucified!
And to thank God that even though we may face persecution, illness, mocking, failure in other areas of life and even death, we are invited by Him to be a part of this great task that will not and cannot fail!
Amen
