Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone. – Mark 16:15(NLT)
KINGDOM BUSINESS
A poem and essay by ILMA
What is your purpose in life?
Are you here to get what you want or be a light?
How do you spread the Good News to everyone?
Are you living in a material world instead of seeking the Son?
All believers are expected to do kingdom business
It is spreading the Good News and not being consumed by “busy”ness
God wants us all to partake of his kingdom
What do you need to give up to enjoy God’s freedom?
There are so many things that keep people busy. Careers, relationships, accruing wealth, chasing dreams, wanting fame and power, finding romantic love, etc keep people distracted from the business of God’s kingdom. There are some individuals who even reach the end of their lives and not know why they are here on earth. It is sad to see people going in circles making the same mistakes over and over again without realizing their purpose.
The bible tells us our purpose in life. It is to go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone. We need not be preachers, evangelists or bible scholars to fulfill this purpose. We need to tell them that God loves them and gave his Son to pay our debts.
PRAYER
Lord, use me to further your Kingdom.
REFLECTION
What have you done to spread the gospel to everyone?
