“We will never ever do what God wants for us until we understand what He’s done for us.”
-Perry Noble
It’s impossible to fully grasp the importance of the call of God on your life until you fully understand the sacrifice God has made for you. Each day I believe I feel this more and more. I feel a sense of urgency to do what God has called me to do. Jesus didn’t die for us to just be complacent christians. He died for us to be the salt and light. He died so that we might have life. Now it’s our turn to take that same transforming power that God has worked in our lives and bring it to those who are in such desperate need.
Church, we have been rescued! We have to got to have a sense of urgency. We live in a world where we are surrounded by deeply hurting people who are need of rescue too. Without Jesus they are going to die and go to hell. That is the reality of the world in which we live.
When Jesus heard it, He said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”
Mark 2:17
Let’s fire up the ambulance, turn on the lights and sirens, and roll. Our urgency has got to be at that kind of level.
