Have you ever made yourself available to do something?
If you are a parent, maybe you’ve said, “Here I am,” when asked to help with a PTA project.
Maybe you said, “Here I am,” when volunteering at a nursing home or orphanage.
Maybe you said, “Here I am,” when joining the army—thank you for your service!
Maybe you offered to be the designated driver, and, because of that, lives were saved.
It’s an incredible feeling to know your actions helped save a life—but have you heard of the mission of saving souls? This is the greatest mission anyone can take on!
The prophet Isaiah understood this and responded to God’s call:
“Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying:
‘Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?’
Then I said, ‘Here am I! Send me.’”
(Isaiah 6:8)
Are you up for the challenge?
If your answer is “No,” that’s okay. Maybe you’re saying, “I need to be saved myself before I can help save anyone else.” I have good news for you: Don’t be discouraged. In order to save others, you must first be saved.
You are my special guest. Visit The Universal Church near you today. Speak with the pastor and let him know that you have a desire to save souls—and that you also want to take action to save your own.
This is a matter of faith. Do not doubt—believe!
I met a woman in prison recently, and when I asked her for a prayer request, she said her only request was to serve God. That sincere desire deeply touched me, and I believe God will honor it.
Many years ago, I said, “Here I am,” and I continue to say it—encouraging others to do the same and giving an opportunity to those who have not yet been saved.
Today is your day. No matter where you are, make the effort to visit The Universal Church near you. Please see the links below:
