He
came not to be ministered unto, but to minister and to give His life a ransom for
the world.
You
get the bent of Jesus’ life in this. It is the law that runs absolutely
contrary to everything that man has learned in a life where self-preservation
is a foremost law. Jesus came not to get; He came to give.
I
used to think He came to find a crown, and then I learned that He found that
crown on the cross. It wasn’t the kind of crown that you or I would accept or
desire, but it was the crown of thorns that the world gave Him.
They
didn’t want Him, but that did not thwart His purpose. He came to bring life and
liberty and love to the hearts of men. He never gave up until He had accomplished
His purpose.
In
that is the challenge to your heart and mind. You have a mission; I have a mission.
Shall
we allow the unbelief and the selfishness of men to thwart our call and rob the
world of the thing that we have? We can’t do it. We that live, (and we do live),
should no longer live unto ourselves but live unto Him. That means that we are
to live to carry Him to the world, to give Him to the world. It is not
religion, it is not ethics, it is the living Christ that the world needs. It is
not telling men how to give up sin; it is telling men how to receive Life, and
to allow that Life in all its fullness to gain the supremacy in our spirits.
When
that Life gains the supremacy, we have arrived. We have found the thing for
which we came into being. We have contacted Him. His life now flows into our life. His fullness
meets our impoverished condition, and we become rich with His riches.
There
is the actual participation of God’s very being as He participates in our very
being. He became sin with our sin in order that we might become righteous with
His righteousness. Our sin drove Him to hell: His righteousness bears us to
heaven.
Now
look at it practically. He came to our level and met us and lifted us by His
love and His grace to His level. His level is sonship, and that is where we end
. . . as children of God.
Now
then, we have a mission. It is to go to the other man and tell him the story
and shear His love with them. You will have no happiness. You will have no
freedom. You will have no conscious thrill that comes from intimacy with Him
until you have told it to someone.
So
much is going to depend upon your testimony. If you refuse to share with that
man the thing that God has imparted to you, you will lose the joy of possession.
The joy of possession comes by your sharing it with another. You go and carry
His love life to that disconsolate, broken home. You go and let them see what
God has done for you. You go tell the story and see its reactions in their
life.
You
know what He has done in your life. You have no right to withhold it. This is
the biggest thing, the richest thing, the world ever knew.
You
are not carrying it to the masses, you are carrying it to individuals, and they
carry it to another individual. The entire thing is sharing. He shared it with you,
now you are sharing it with another. He gave it to you; now give it to someone
else. You become their burden bearer until they learn to shift it on the Lord.
You’re
their teacher until they learn to enjoy the fullness of their privileges and
become teachers themselves. Your ministry is to give the world what has been
given to you.
Here at Edward Freedom Ministry Int'l (EFMI) there are many activities. We are
continuously looking for new innovative ways to reach the lost—to reach the
unreachable. We are planning a special

who believes in being a part of Gods Work.

At this
mission, we will be ministering the Word of His Salvation, Deliverance, Healing
and Restoration to the suffering people of the community and its environs. We
will also minister to the poor, the widows and the impoverished fatherless
children in the community.
This
outreach represents an enormous financial budget, but we trust God to accomplish
it.
We believe
God for the provision of food items and sanitary materials and educational
materials. These items will be
distributed to the widows that are widows indeed, the impoverished homes and
children. We must show the world that we care. We must share our love with
those who will not and cannot return it.
This is me and you teaming up with Christ Jesus to bless the World
around us.
Where
your feet cannot reach your prayer and finance can reach. Stand with the Lord
and let us accomplish this great work together.
Call
us today to sow a seed that you will surely reap till eternity.
Our
lines are open: 2348028821311, +2348075211164
Your
financial seed will go a long way. Let your finance equip the feet of the
gospel bearers. God himself will cause His showers of blessing to come upon you
and your entire household in Jesus Name. Amen!
Yours
Sincerely
