Life-Staking Devotion for The Gospel
(Ph. 2:6-11)

Introduction: We must know one thing. How have we come to the position of the Christian? There are so many people who are living a walk of faith without listening to the Gospel, and they evangelize without the love of souls. However, one day, God grabbed hold of us and placed us in the flow of world evangelization. This is the grace of God. If we didn’t receive the Gospel, we would be still enslaved by Satan.

1. The grace of salvation and life staking devotion for the Gospel.
(1) Curses that non-believers suffer from (slavery under Satan, idol worship, physical problems, mental problems, and afterlife problems)
(2) Blessings of the saved
1) They are children of God
2) They receive the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
3) God answers to their prayer
4) The heavenly army of angels is mobilized to protect them.
5) Satan is bound when they pray
6) They have the citizenship of heaven
7) They enjoy the blessing of world evangelization.
(3) Those who enjoy the grace of salvation and the Gospel stake their lives on the Gospel.

2. We have come to the place of world evangelization by the grace of God.
(1) God works (the sovereign)
1) Do not forget the core of the Gospel; Gen3:15, Is7:14,
especially,Mt16:16.
2) If you wait in the present place, God will give you the work to do.
3) God makes us do missions and healing. Not by our own will.
(2) Be the prestigious church of the world.
(The model church of the world evangelism assembly).
1) The church that sends the most missionaries.
2) The church that raises the most pastors.
3) The church that raises women elders and goes ahead of others.

Conclusion: Stake your life on the Gospel.
