God's Economy - Door to Door Christianity

Jesus never knocked on doors to spread the Gospel.

I know I just got cut off from a lot of church folks but that's ok.

The Bible does tell us to go tell the Gospel (Mark 16:15). I don't dispute that for a second.

The thing is that Jesus effectively spread the Gospel and didn't knock on a single door. 

Doing this always terrified me as a child because I didn't feel comfortable walking up to complete strangers and because I hated when people did it to me. 9 time out of 10 I always left those situations feeling harassed.

Jesus didn't harass people with the Gospel. Instead He did these three things.

  1. His Reputation Preceded Him
    If you are a kind, loving person who is living right people will tell other people about you and the God you serve. Your life is your testimony. The way you live your life is a much greater witness then anything you say,
  2. He Had Organic Conversations that Led to Kingdom Conversations
    I never outright tell people about Christ. Mostly because, as a kid, I disliked those people. However, if you get to know me you will know I rock with God the long way and what He means to me.
  3. Where He Walked He Brought the Gospel with Him
    Jesus walked. A lot. And where He went He brought the Gospel. When you walk out your door the Gospel is going with you because it is in you. If you are ever asked about your faith you should be ready to share it as Jesus was.
Even I don't open the door to those who walk door to door. Our life is our strongest testament of the Good News. We don't have a telling quota, you just have to be willing to share Jesus where you are.

Praise Break: Hymn of Breakthough

 I have been in a time of Worship and Praise since early this morning and for the last 3 hours I've been listening to Israel Houghton's Feels Like Home. It has been blessing me. But the very last song was the Hymn of Breakthough. There has been such a shift in my mindset, in my expectancy of God in the last almost 20 days. I'm expecting a breakthough or even breakthrough. The lyrics say, I hear the sound of breakthough, my breakthrough is here. Everything that I need You supply. Every promise of Heaven is mine. But the words that spoke to my spirit, I am healed, I am free God has spoken I agree My breakthrough is here God has spoken, I agree. God has spoken, I agree. God has spoken, I agree. God has spoken, I agree. Let the words follow over you, let in seep to you Soul so that you know, God has a breakthrough for. No matter what you are going through, no matter the sitution. God said, God said your breakthrough is here. Stand i...

Praise Break - Ghost Town (Freedom)

The earth was new, a great frontier The perfect place to spread his fear So satan set up shop to draw them in Bright lights to display all his wares "Come on in, forget your cares" That devil knew just how to package sin People came from far and wide Not a guilty soul denied But before they knew they'd been deceived They'd step inside and never leave They said his eyes were black as coal His voice a shudder to the soul He preyed upon the broken and the proud He told them they were lost for good No one loved them and who would Before too long he owned that fallen town And from inside the gates they'd wail: Who can save us from this hell? And as their hopes turned into tears He laughed and all his demons stood and cheered Then down a dirt road from the east Came one, they said, could slay the beast But did not fight with bullets or a sword They called him Mercy and at his side A thousand angels chose to ride And a...

2021 is the Year of Birth

 In the same way I will not cause pain     without allowing something new to be born,” says the Lord. “If I cause you the pain,     I will not stop you from giving birth to your new nation,” says your God. Isaiah 66:9 We have experienced so much this year but I'm believing that out of the pain of 2020 God will birth a great nation in all of us who continue to push to it birth. Remember, inspite of it all YOU ARE LOVED . The Unlikely Missionary DHW
