God’s will is clearly stated throughout Scripture through His commandments. Back to redeeming our time. Matthew 28:19-20 says, “Go therefore and make disciples…teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you…”

Mark 16:15 says, “…Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.” Paul took the great commission seriously as God’s will. He suffered greatly to proclaim the gospel. In Colossians 1:23 he wrote about his calling, :…which was preached to every creature under heaven, of which I, Paul, became a minister.”

What did Jesus do? He raised up disciples to take His gospel to the world after He ascended. At salvation the Holy Spirit comes to dwell in us. He is our Leader. As we follow Him, He will set up divine encounters that enable us to share the gospel. 

Redeeming our time here is to be light bearers. We are called to make disciples, so they too can share the gospel through their lives. Ministry that bears fruit for His glory is to bear fruit of redeemed souls that will remain throughout eternity.
