My Commitment To God's Great Commission

Here I am ready to obey You, God, The Supreme Commander Who gave His marching order… This mandate He imperatively expressed in Matthew 28:18-20 Of the Holy Scriptures: “All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, Baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, And of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, Even unto the end of the world. Amen.” Here am I committed to live for You, my Lord by Your grace To give my utmost part and best in fulfilling the Great Commission May I do so with earnestness… Forbid me to make a mere show of sincerity In the guise of holiness, yet deceiving… Forgive my guilty conscience, afflicted with shame’s pangs As I seek Your kingdom first Investing in Your business of righteousness. Here is my heart, devoted to involve in Your work, my Master Help me with Your Holy Ghost’s influence… Please restrain me in exhibiting arrogant progress In the power of my flesh… Enable me to hide in Your might and surrender to Your leading Conquering pride’s insolence I need you so I can perform with faith Sharing Your Gospel of salvation-security. Here is my all, grateful to You, my Creator for Your granted privilege To labour for Your Great Commission’s endeavor… I accept Your assignment willingly, assured by Your compassion’s fire To win souls, teach biblically, minister to others thru Your mercy While walking with You, praying in the Spirit Toward Your granted triumph with joy and peace… Keep me in Your care, since without You, I am nothing And that I can do all things thru You, my Strength*!
*Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. December 14, 2018
