Touching The World

Reading – Acts 16:9-10

And a vision appeared to Paul in the night. A man of Macedonia stood and pleaded with him, saying, “Come over to Macedonia and help us”. Now after he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go to Macedonia, concluding that the Lord had called us to preach the gospel to them

PREVIEW

~Just before the beginning of this text, Paul and his companions Silas and Timothy seem to be at a loss for where to go next with the gospel.
~They stumble around the region, running into one barrier after another set up by God. Barred by the Spirit from going south and west into Asia or from going north into Bythinia, Paul appears backed into a coastal corner at Troas by God’s strange and repeated “no.”

~The Macedonia Call was a call for Paul to touch lives. A call to help those in need in a God given vision to GO.
~The call from God may ask us to travel if not at the least respond.
~The Call asks us to help other believers in verse 4 we learn Paul and other believers were traveling “from town to town” strengthening existing churches. But you need to remember not to do nothing until you get a clear call from God.

~We are called to reach our world, our world is calling on us to reach them, our world is begging us to reach them.

~The world need the Gospel, they need good news
Romans 1:16For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile

~We are the careers of the of the Gospel.

Rom10:14 – How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? 15And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”

~To touch the world we must physically travel, Paul and his team travelled through Jerusalem and Asia that was hostile.
Matt 28:19 – Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

~To touch the world we must raise more Altars of church with the Word, to grow them and strengthen them.
Acts 6:7 – So the word of God spread. The number of disciples in Jerusalem increased rapidly, and a large number of priests became obedient to the faith.

CONCLUSION
~For all the questions and problems in the world, Jesus is the ANSWER.
Therefore, everybody ought to know who Jesus is
~We need to take God to all the world.
