The Next Step! - By Keith Cook

"Since we have gifts that differ according to the grace given us let each exercise them accordingly." Romans 12:6

Have you ever been on a mission project for God or been a part of a unique outreach event? Do you remember the, "What do I do now?" feeling, after the event was over?

I want to ask you to think about what God may be calling you to do long term as a result of your past mission projects or similar services for God.

What has God shown you about yourself as you have ministered?

What has God shown you about your ministry skills and calling?

Where is God leading you to minister next?

Let me offer a few suggestions.

1. God wants you to minister to your family by sharing with them all that you can remember about your ministry experiences. Begin to think of stories and fun things that God did or people you met that impressed you. You can also minister to them by showing them your life and example of how much God has focused you and how He has worked in your life.

2. God wants you to minister to your home church. You owe it to your friends and fellow Christians back home to come back fired up and full of new ideas and commitment for the work of God. Help start a fire in your local church. At least two people should catch your fire and pass on your legacy of service for God.

3. God wants you to minister for life. Once you have caught the mission and evangelism bug you can never be cured. You will always know that your life can make a difference if you are "on the go!"

As you go out for God remember these three things and God will take you to the next step for you in Christian service.

Daily Prayer Focus: Pray that God would tell you where to go and minister next. Plan early. Start saving now. So many people never get to go for God because they plan too late.

On The Go Prayer Focus: Crusade USA. God has placed a United States effort on the heart and mind of the On The Go Team. Three Key Objectives for Crusade USA are sharing, praying and training. This week, Keith and the team will be leading a Crusade at Botsford Baptist Church in Georgia. Pray for Keith as he preaches the Word that God will give him discernment, sensitivity, power, and boldness to preach the Gospel.

Thank you for taking the time to pray for this important division of On The Go Ministries. For more information on any our ministries here at On The Go, you may send your questions to info@onthego.org.
