DEFINING AND UNDERSTANDING OUR TASK TO GOD ~ NCCF International Ministries Inc.

• Define-means to state precisely the meaning of

- Example:

eyes – see
feet – to walk
mouth – to speak
heart – pumping
• understanding- the sum of the mental powers by which knowledge is acquired, retained, and extended

- means deeper meaning of things why it exist

- Example:

eyes- to see God’s wonder
feet – to move and do His work
mouth – to praise and share His Word
heart – where God dwells

• we heard our parents saying like:

we go to school
enroll –nursery and learned the basic ABC’s to get ready for prep - to read, learned mathematics
to elem, to high school and college
and have work and perhaps get married
when you’re now working, you have your own money and think you can now buy “HAPPINESS”
AND somehow along the way, you feel something missing inside
God leaves a vacuum inside that only Him can fill in
As Ray ann Fuentes said – to receive His full blessings, be in His presence
And thank God angels are real- God uses them to know Him more
then,we fellowship
So what then now?

• Nehemiah 3:1-27 – Builders of the Walls (Jerusalem wall)

The walls were built with people
People with different skills and gifts
And people work together

• 1 TIMOTHY 4:11-16
• It’s time to define our responsibility as Christian

• It’s time to ask ourselves :

what I can do?
what can I give?
If yes, am I giving my all?

• A manager can’t stand alone in the company
• A president can’t stand alone
• leaders can’t do well without the member’s support in the ministry
• Even God though He can do everything, still needs us as His mouthpiece where He can display His power and be made known
• Until we still have the breath, we can do something, do more for God
• Until we have the breath, we still have the hope
• The scarcity in life is not proportion to what u can do into His kingdom because what God wants us to do is what is only in our hands/required right now, it’s not what you don’t have but what you have that matters
• Don’t wait until we aren’t able to, until we retire, until we are full
• Don’t wait for everything to be perfect before you decide to enjoy your life. –Joyce Myer
• Because the right time to do our service to God is NOW

• (don’t tell yourself u don’t know what to do)

It has been laid to us through His spirit the moment we received Jesus as our Lord and Savior
• The moment we are born again in Spirit is also the moment God poured out His will and plans in our lives
• It was evidently given to us
• He open our spiritual eyes to see His very will
• We need just to read and meditate His WORD and hear His audible voice AND INSTRUCTION
• TO DO GREAT THINGS FOR GOD is to dwell in His presence

• Story of Moses - Then they said to Moses, “You speak with us, and we will hear; but let not God speak with us, lest we die.” (Exodus 20:19)

Their fear of God is the exact same fear that many Christians still have today.
The Bible tells us that God wants to establish this individual personal relationship with each one of us, but we are too afraid to approach God to establish this kind of intimate personal relationship with Him.
This is what God really wants, and if you would be willing enter in without any type of fear like Moses did; this will then be the beginning of a new and adventurous life for you with the Lord.

CONCLUSION:
Have you ever experienced the frustration of putting together a puzzle, only to discover in the end that a piece was missing? Even though that piece is just a tiny portion of the puzzle, its absence leaves a very noticeable flaw in the whole picture.
The same is true in God's Kingdom. 1 Peter 2:5 tells us, "You also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house" (NIV). In a physical building, a missing brick leaves a hole in the wall. While God doesn't need us like a wall needs a brick, He does want to see us connected with other Christians to make a dynamic whole - which brings us joy and God glory.

1. Every Christian Has a Job to Do

• When you belong to Christ, you are part of His body. He is the head. He leads the body, and He orchestrates its movements.
• And you are connected not only to Him, but also to every other part of the body as well. As we read in Scripture, "God has arranged the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be" (1 Corinthians 12:18, NIV).
As a believer, you have an important job to do. You have a major role to play in the Church of Jesus Christ. And it's the job of every believer to rightly discern his or her role in the plan of God and to serve with enthusiasm - no matter what job God asks you to do.

2. No Job Is Insignificant

• Therefore, before you say that your job isn't important because it isn't a visible one like preaching, consider the many behind-the-scenes people - people you've probably never heard of - that God has used to change the course of history.

3. The Importance of Working Together

Here is an important truth:
• The body works best when all its parts work together.
• As believers, we are all different. We have different gifts and abilities, and we have different jobs to do. But we all belong to the same body. "Just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others" (Romans12:4-5, NIV).
• So a believer functions best when connected to other believers.
• Get involve, we need you here
• Use the gifts and the abilities that God has given you - and bring Him glory.

So never underestimate your significance to the Body of Christ. You have an important job to do. God gifted you uniquely, and He has a plan and a purpose for your life. You are a vital and valued part of God's Kingdom!
