Mobile Ministry Is Directional Too
Kinda prompted by a few articles that I have read recently (one in PDA Essentials and the other at this post at Palm Addict), I do realize that sometimes mobility means nothing without a little bit of direction. Simply speaking, knowing where you are going is a vital part of any type of ministry pursuit.
Recall the scripture where Phillip was led by the Holy Spirit into the the South and led a person into knowing who it was that Scripture spoke about. Phillip could not do this without being led by the Holy Spirit, and in the same wise without knowing the tool at hand (in this case the book of Isaiah), he would not have been able to direct that person to meeting Christ so that Jesus could be shared with a slice of the world that did not know that He had come, died and rose.
I feel that in this time where I am without work that I have to spend more time than I had before in the presence of God to know where He will be directing me. Yes, finances are just about nill right now (there is enough in my account to put a few bucks in my tank to go to the next interview when that is), but that does not mean that He cannot use me where I am to be directed into places where either by PDA or paper, word or just quiet action, that He uses me to show someone who Christ is.
And that is my prayer today for you as well, that you encounter the Holy Spirit and the He leads you to a place to share Christ. That you would be encouraged by the Spirit to go, and further more to trust that where you are going, He has a plan for you to change the lives of a few, or a lot, of people.
