Mission Possible

Introduction: Are you fulfilling your Mission? Really our Lord’s purpose! Jesus completed His task on earth. His unfinished intercessory work is proceeding onward in heaven. After examining His life, death, resurrection and promise to return, we too should be focused on our mission here on earth.
1. Jesus said, “For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me” (John 6:38).
Clearly, Jesus declares His purpose for being born. It was simply to obey His Father’s Will. Are you determined to do the same? How about your Mission?
2. Jesus said, “I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work” (John 9:4).
It is daytime right now. But soon it will be night. The Sun is sinking low. Time is running out. What we do thru the power of the Holy Spirit we need to do now. Are you focused? Do you need to make any changes in your life that may be hindering you from fulfilling your mission?
3. Jesus said, “I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do” (John 17:4).
When life is over, will you be able to say, “I have finished my work?” Mission accomplished.
Conclusion: After being crucified on a cross for our sins, and after being raised from the dead, Jesus promised to come again! “Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. 2 In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also” (John 14:1-3).
