Wherever He Leads, I'll Go (1247)
We, as Christians, have been sent on a mission to share the Gospel anywhere and everywhere God calls us to go. Where is anywhere and everywhere for you? Have you ever said in your heart, "Wherever He leads, I'll go"? We should be able to say this and mean it, without fear or hesitation.
God has a plan for us and God will use us if we will let Him. How can we know where God wants us to go?
First, we must perceive the call of God. God has many ways to speak to us, through prayer, the Holy Spirit, angels and others. We must get rid of our selfishness, our pride, our ambitions, and be ready to be filled by God. And what God fills, He uses.
We must preach the Gospel, simply and clearly, as according to Jesus Christ. Adrian Rogers says, “The Gospel is simply glorious and gloriously simple.” The Gospel, simply put, is three statements:
“I am a sinner.”
“Christ died for my sins.”
“I am saved by grace, through faith.”
Finally, we must practice the commands of God. The Great Commission in Matthew 28:19-20 says, "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 always, even unto the end of the world.”
Baptism is our way of showing our salvation. A true baptism follows a true salvation. Adrian Rogers says, “If we are real missionaries, we're going to receive the call of God, preach the Christ of God and practice the commands of God.”
Apply it to your life
Are you willing to say to God, “Wherever you lead, I’ll go”? If there was ever a time we ought to say it, it is now.
An Eight-Week Bible Study on Honoring God's Perfect Arrangement
Author: from the messages of Adrian Rogers
Marriage, as God intended it to be, is unraveling. Half of all children grow up in single-parent homes. Divorce impacts families inside and outside the Church. Our culture also wants to say that homosexual marriage is the same as true marriage, which was instituted by God and was designed to be between one man and one woman.
If you are not married yet, this study can help you understand God’s perfect plan. If you are in a good marriage, this study will help you keep playing the score as God wrote it. If you are in a bad marriage, you have a decision to make. Marriages are not generally healed overnight, but you can decide to work together to change the direction of your marriage.
When we come together and learn how God wrote the music of marriage, we can have homes that sing of God’s love to the world.
Each study follows Pastor Rogers’ guide to studying the Bible: Pray Over It. Ponder It. Put It in Writing. Practice It. Proclaim It.
