The Great Commission people refer to in the context of evangelism. "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations," Jesus said. To make a disciple one must be a disciple. Jesus' command was not to make converts to Christianity. It is to make disciples. The second part of the Great Commission is to "be his witnesses." This means you must have a testamony to share. It is this testimony that opens the door to interest in Jesus Christ, but the converting and transforming work is work of the Holy Spirit. We could accomplish much more by way of discipleship and witnessing if we ourselves could know Jesus better.
Daily Prayer: Lord Jesus, our prayer is that we come to know you better. It is our desire to learn to know your word and your ways. Soften our hearts to be less concerned with our self and more concerned about you. In Your Holy Name I pray Amen.
