Ministering Across the Street and Around the World requires a close daily walk with God, and the On The Go Daily Devotions wants to help Christians with their walk with God. These daily devotions help Christians gain greater understanding of God's call to ministry and His desire for everyone to serve Him. Insight will be gleaned from international evangelist and author Keith Cook, Joan Cook and the entire On The Go Ministries team.

Let's
Let's by Keith Cook
"Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest." John 4:35
Today is the time for radical faith. Gone is the convenience of being lukewarm and not actively engaging in reaching our culture. Today's culture is rapidly invading the church and even individuals Christians world-wide.
If we are going to win people to Christ and turn back the tide of the evil and hedonistic humanism that is engulfing our world, we need to do three simple things.
1. Stop - We need to stop what we are doing and take time to make new friends for Jesus Christ's sake. We really need to become friends with more people and let more people into our world. Most of us live in a really small world. We need to venture out and see real people with real needs.
2. Look - We need to look for open doors to share our faith and dependence on Jesus Christ. God will provide all who ask Him with open doors and natural and easy transition opportunities to share about Jesus. Take the time to look for ways to share and follow God's path when He reveals it.
3. Listen - We need to yield to the Spirit and listen to those we are sharing with! God will direct your steps if you give Him your life each day. While salvation is a once in a lifetime experience, following Jesus is moment by moment. Making Jesus Lord and being filled with the Spirit is something that takes daily dying to self and a moment by moment trusting is God's resources and directions.
Let's do what God is directing us to do today, while we have time and opportunity.
Pray: Pray that God will enable you to Stop, Look, and Listen in a greater way than ever before.
