Proclaimers of God's Word: Geoffrey Bull

Feed on His faithfulness.
Psalm 37:3

Recommended Reading
Psalm 37:1-5 ( http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%2037:1-5&version=NKJV )

The Book that missionaries proclaim is the Book that sustains them in the work of proclamation. Geoffrey Bull, a British missionary to Tibet, was imprisoned by Chinese Communists who seized his Bible and made him suffer terribly at their hands for three years. Bull was subjected to such mental and psychological torture that he feared he would go insane. But the missionary began to systematically go over the Scriptures in his mind. It took about six months to go all the way through the Bible mentally. He started at Genesis and recalled each Bible story as best he could, first concentrating on the content and then musing on certain points, seeking light in prayer. He reconstructed the books and chapters as best he could until he came to Revelation. Then he started over again. He later wrote, "The strength received through this meditation was, I believe, a vital factor in bringing me through, kept by the faith to the very end."

In all our labors and trials, the Book we proclaim is also the Book that restores our souls. It should be both our diet and our decree.

In the Bible God has given us thoughts of His power and His love, and He has given them to us that we may think about them and have food for our souls.

Let the Reader Understand

Therefore, when you see the "abomination of desolation," spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (whoever reads, let him understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
Matthew 24:15-16

Recommended Reading
Daniel 9:24-27 ( http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Daniel%209:24-27&version=NKJV )

Many Bible readers are troubled by this passage because Jesus warns us to understand His words, yet they are mysterious. He's referring to an event in the future, when an abominable image will be erected in the rebuilt temple in Jerusalem. It's called the abomination of desolation, and it's going to trigger the horrific three-and-a-half years of Great Tribulation.

The prophet Daniel mentions this disgusting image in chapters 9, 11, and 12 of his book; Paul makes reference to it in 2 Thessalonians, as does John in Revelation 13. One day in the future, the Antichrist will desecrate the rebuilt Jewish temple with a vile image, setting in motion the events of the Great Tribulation.

Satan isn't waiting until then, however, to lead multitudes of people into idolatry. An idol isn't necessarily a statue or image; it's anything that we love more than we love Jesus Christ. Both now and then, both sooner and later, Jesus Christ must be the unrivaled Lord of our hearts.

Let Him rule and reign without equal in the temple of your life today.

Let Jesus be first and uppermost in thought and life and let all other things trail on after.

Now!

"Come now, and let us reason together," says the LORD.
Isaiah 1:18a

Recommended Reading
Isaiah 55:6-7 ( http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Isaiah%2055:6-7&version=NKJV )

Leslie Flynn tells of a pastor who took a visiting evangelist to visit a farmer whose family had been converted during revival meetings. They hoped to witness to the man. But when they arrived, the farmer was offended. "I didn't ask you to bring anyone out here to preach to me," he said. "I know where the church is. Anytime I want to hear anybody preach, I'll go to church. I'm going to be saved sometime, but not till I'm good and ready."

The next Monday the phone rang with an urgent message to come to the farmer's house. In a freak accident, he had fallen from the hayloft and died instantly. He fell at the very spot where two days before he'd declared, "I'll get saved when I'm good and ready."1

We have no promise of tomorrow. Today is the day of salvation, and we must call upon the Lord while He is near. If you need Christ, don't wait another moment. Come to Him today, while there's still time. And don't delay in sharing God's grace with others who need to hear His plan of redemption.

The little word "now" is a very important word in God's vocabulary of salvation.
J. C. Macaulay

Zealous for Souls

This Gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.
Matthew 24:14

Recommended Reading
Proverbs 11:30 ( http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%2011:30&version=NKJV )

The Great Commission tells us to go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature. But the fulfilling of the Great Commission is not necessarily a sign of Christ's imminent return. When we compare the prophetic events of Matthew 24 with the Book of Revelation, we learn that after the rapture of the Church, the task of world evangelism will continue under the ministry of the 144,000 Messianic Jewish preachers, leading to the salvation of multitudes of people during the Great Tribulation.

Just imagine! Only twelve Jews (the disciples) turned the world upside down after the resurrection and ascension of Christ in the first century. Think of what 144,000 Jewish evangelists can do after the return of Christ to rapture the church!

But until then, we can do our part. We're to be proclaimers of the Word and preachers to the world. If we're followers of Christ, we're to be fishers of men. Think of the value of one soul into whose heart you were able to drop the seed of the Gospel. Be zealous for souls in all you do!

The example of the grace of God in our lives allows others to see Christ in us, and they can be saved from the wrath to come.

Ready for Anything

Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming....
Luke 12:40a

Recommended Reading
Luke 12:40-44 ( http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke%2012:40-44&version=NKJV )

Mike Yardley had just left his network's studios when his city collapsed around him. As the ground convulsed, a cloud of dust rose on all sides. Yardley noticed in horror that the city center of Christchurch, New Zealand, was raining down on the sidewalks. Looking back at his news building, he saw nothing but dust. Only later he realized that the dust was, in fact, the building he had just exited. It collapsed in the February 22 earthquake, killing seventeen of his colleagues. "My heart has been torn by the unwieldy weight of grief," he said, "as I reflect on 17 much-loved workmates who I will never share a TV studio with again."1

Jesus warned of famines, pestilences, and earthquakes as we grow closer to His return. We see all these things today and marvel at the disasters that are increasing as time draws shorter. But we shouldn't fear. We should take these things as reminders to be watching, waiting, and praying. We should be ready!

The world is in trouble, but Jesus came to rescue us from its final consequences.
Erwin Lutzer

When Things Look Darkest

False christs and false prophets will rise and show signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. But take heed; see, I have told you all things beforehand.
Mark 13:22-23

Recommended Reading
Mark 13:21-27 ( http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Mark%2013:21-27&version=NKJV )

The recent turmoil among the Arab states in the Middle East is a reminder that the nation of Israel and its neighbors dominate the agenda of history. We don't know the reverberations of every conflict or the consequences of every shift of power. It may be that the youth movements among Arab states will provide new openness for the Gospel. On the other hand, the shifting political structures may lead to increased radicalism, setting the stage for the Antichrist.

It's not wise to be overly dogmatic as we try to interpret current events, and we've got to be careful about false prophets who claim they are either Christ or Antichrist. The twists and turns of history are under God's providential control, and it's best to watch prayerfully so we can take advantage of open doors for evangelism while awaiting our Lord's return.

We can't be dogmatic about specific events in the headlines, but we can be fully assured that history is His-story, and that the stage is being set for His soon return. We can live every day with confidence and excitement that no matter how disturbing the news reports, our sovereign Lord is in control.

When things look darkest to the world, they look brightest to the Christian. Our King is coming back!

Proclaimers of God's Word: Hudson Taylor

Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself... neither can you, unless you abide in Me.
John 15:4

Recommended Reading
John 15:1-5 ( http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John%2015:1-5&version=NKJV )

Missionary pioneer Hudson Taylor worked so hard in China that his health nearly broke. One day a letter came from a friend who wrote about the joy of abiding in Christ. The letter said, "Abiding, not striving nor struggling; looking off unto Him; trusting Him for present power...this is not new, and yet �tis new to me."

Reading this at his mission station at Chin-kiang on September 4, 1869, Taylor's eyes were opened. "As I read," he recalled, "I saw it all. I looked to Jesus; and when I saw, oh how the joy flowed!" Writing to his sister, he said: "As to work, mine was never so plentiful, so responsible, or so difficult; but the weight and strain are all gone. The last month or more has been perhaps the happiest of my life; and I long to tell you a little of what the Lord has done for my soul."

This became known as "Hudson Taylor's Spiritual Secret." Proclaiming the Word is not something we do for Christ but something He does through us as we abide in Him. Are you abiding in Him today?

The branch...rests in union and communion with the vine; and at the right time, and in the right way, is the right fruit found on it.
Hudson Taylor

Looking Forward

...looking forward to these things...
2 Peter 3:14

Recommended Reading
Titus 2:11-14 ( http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Titus%202:11-14&version=NKJV )

Whatever problems you're facing, news you're dreading, or burdens you're bearing--all will be resolved within two seconds of Christ's return. This world brings tribulations, yet we can be of good cheer for He has overcome the world (John 16:33). When He comes, He will give rest to the troubled, and an eternal weight of glory for those facing, "light momentary affliction" (1 Thessalonians 1:6; 2 Corinthians 4:17). The sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed (Romans 8:18).

One day soon our sighs will become songs, our heartaches hallelujahs, and our worldly woes will be swallowed up in everlasting joy. There will be no heavy hearts in our heavenly homes. That's why the Bible tells us to seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.

Let's set our minds on things above (Colossians 3:1-2). Great joy comes to those who look forward to the Lord's return. Learn to visualize it, meditate on it, speak of it, study it, and pray, "Even so, come, Lord Jesus!" (Revelation 22:20)

Beyond the bounds of time and space, look forward to that happy place!
Charles Wesley

Save This Date!

Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming.
Matthew 24:42

Recommended Reading
Acts 1:4-8 ( http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts%201:4-8&version=NKJV )

"Save this date!" That's the slogan of those proffering specific dates for the return of Jesus Christ to earth.

The fourth-century Christian writer, Lactantius, determined Jesus would return in AD 520. Many believed Jesus would come in the year 1000, causing adherents to stay up all night on New Year's Eve of 999, awaiting the great event. Some among the Anabaptists believed Christ would come in 1533--exactly 1500 years after His death by their reckoning. Archbishop Ussher believed our Lord would come on a particular day in 1644. George Rapp, a religious teacher in Pennsylvania, predicted Christ's return on September 15, 1829. William Miller caused widespread panic through America by announcing October 22, 1844, as the date of Christ's return. In the 1980s, a popular booklet gave 88 reasons why the rapture would occur in 1988.

But Jesus told us to be ready anytime. Not even the angels know the exact day, but we're to "Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is" (Mark 13:33).

It might be today! Are you ready?

To be ever looking for the Lord's appearing is one of the best helps to a close walk with God.
J. C. Ryle, nineteenth-century Christian writer

Battlefield Communication

...Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints--and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly....
Ephesians 6:18-19

Recommended Reading
Ephesians 6:18-24 ( http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians%206:18-24&version=NKJV )

In Ephesians 6:18-19, we have one of history's first missionary prayer requests. The apostle Paul, having written about the armor of the believer and the urgency of prayer, asked the Ephesians to pray that God would give him the ability to share the Gospel boldly at every opportunity.

Notice the alls in this passage. We're to pray always--at all times. We're to offer all prayer and supplication in the Spirit. We're to pray with all perseverance. And we're to remember all the saints.

In his book on prayer, Samuel D. Gordon wrote that this world is God's prodigal son, and that God has devised a plan for winning His prodigal back. He wants to use us in the process; and our greatest agency is prayer, which, Gordon says, is communication between God and His allies in the enemy's country. We're behind enemy lines, but prayer is our connection with the Commander.

Let's take prayer seriously and always offer all prayer in the Spirit with all perseverance for all the saints.

Communion is the basis of all prayer. It is the essential breath of the true Christian life.
S. D. Gordon

Making Ready for Battle

. . . praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints--
Ephesians 6:18

Recommended Reading
Philippians 4:6-7 ( http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Philippians%204:6-7&version=NKJV )

Two soldiers, identically dressed and equipped with the finest battlefield armor and weapons, are sent into battle. One is given awards for bravery, while the other lives with the shame of having deserted his post. Such a rudimentary illustration points out a profound truth: There is more to victory in battle than armor and weapons.

In military warfare terms, call it conviction, attitude, or readiness--the mental preparation that steels one against what might come. In spiritual warfare terms, call it prayer. Paul concluded his description of the Christian's spiritual armor by exhorting the Ephesians to pray "always . . . in the Spirit" and to be "watchful . . . for all the saints." Prayer is that spiritual connection with the One Who is our armor, Jesus Christ Himself. Prayer keeps us in a state of warfare readiness--"sober [and] vigilant" (1 Peter 5:8)--ever alert for the enemy who is walking about seeking someone to devour.

Be committed to wearing your spiritual armor today. But don't go into battle without the readiness that comes from prayer.

It is in the closet that the battle is lost or won.

Power of the Sword

For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
Hebrews 4:12

Recommended Reading
Acts 7:38 ( http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts%207:38&version=NKJV )

In his book The Lost Art of Disciple Making (Zondervan, 1978), Leroy Eims describes his personal battle with anger and a temper. It was not until he made a covenant with God, which included memorizing and meditating on Colossians 3:8 ("But now you yourselves are to put off all these: anger, wrath . . . ."), that anger loosened its grip on his emotions. He reviewed the verse daily and asked the Lord to bring it to mind whenever he was tempted to lose his temper. The Word of God became a sword with which he was able to win his spiritual battle.

Jesus used Scripture in a similar way. When He was tempted for 40 days and nights in the wilderness by Satan, Jesus rebuffed every temptation by quoting an appropriate verse from Deuteronomy (Matthew 4:1-11). If you are in a spiritual battle, your sword is to be the Word of God--the swordA of the Spirit (Ephesians 6:17b). If there is a persistent spiritual battle you fight, memorize a portion of God's living and active Word to gain the victory.

The Bible is alive, it speaks to me; it has feet, it runs after me; it has hands, it lays hold on me.

Places of Greatness: Riverside Retreat

And on the Sabbath day we went out of the city to the riverside, where prayer was customarily made; and we sat down and spoke to the women who met there.
Acts 16:13

Recommended Reading
Acts 16:11-15 ( http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts%2016:11-15&version=NKJV )

Battle Creek, Michigan, is called "Cereal City" because it's the world headquarters for America's great cereal companies. But the town got its actual name from the river that flows through it, originally called the Waupakisco River. In 1824, a violent conflict arose there between surveyors and Native Americans. After the fracas, people started calling the place Battle Creek.

In Acts 16, Paul was at "battle creek," fighting for the souls of those who had gathered on the riverside. Lydia and her family were converted, and then others were saved. But the battle for souls turned ugly when Paul was arrested and beaten. Yet even that led to other conversions and to the planting of a church in the city of Philippi.

It's always a battle when we share Christ with others. A spiritual conflict rages in heavenly places as we seek to win souls. But Jesus told us that as we trust Him, rivers of living water would flow from within us. Don't be afraid of the warfare. Seek the lost at any cost and bear your witness boldly for Christ today.

Personal witnessing is hand-to-hand spiritual conflict; therefore, we must use spiritual weapons.

Well Armed

Take...the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
Ephesians 6:17

Recommended Reading
Psalm 119:161-168 ( http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%20119:161-168&version=NKJV )

When the apostle Paul described the Word of God as the sword of the Spirit, he used an interesting Greek term for "word." He didn't employ the common word logos , but the word rhema . The meaning of rhema tends to emphasize the many sayings of God rather than the unified whole. All of the Bible is God's inspired and infallible Word; but often in our hand-to-hand combat in daily life, it's the specific verses and sayings of Scripture that we need.

Think of the Bible itself as the armory where the individual swords and daggers are stored. Paul's point isn't that we should always carry around a large black Bible for thumping and beating the devil, but that we have individual verses and statements from Scripture unsheathed in our minds and ready to use at a moment's notice.

When we memorize the many truths of the Bible and are prepared to use them, we've got a set of weapons to plunge into Satan as he tries to fill us with doubt, pride, and selfishness.

Are you working on a memory verse today?

The Bible is the Word of God. Period. But in this Word of God, we find those particular sayings that God gives us each day for the battles of life.

Salty Language

Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one.
Colossians 4:6

Recommended Reading
Colossians 4:2-6 ( http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Colossians%204:2-6&version=NKJV )

There's an old saying: "What's down in the well comes up in the bucket." That's another way of making our Lord's point in Matthew 12:34: "For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks."

When we have the Scriptures wrapped around our brains like a helmet--especially through Scripture memory and meditation--our minds become filled with God's Word. It saturates our thoughts. As we fall asleep thinking on His promises and wake up with Him on our minds, it changes the patterns of our brains. We discover that we often have a word of encouragement for someone else. If we continually fill our minds with the knowledge of Christ, He will bring the needed words to mind in every situation.

Every good cook knows that salt enhances the flavor of foods. It's not just a matter of giving your meals a salty taste. There's something about salt, used in proper amounts, that brings out the taste of other ingredients and makes them more flavorful.

May God help us salt our conversations today with the flavor of His Word.

Broadly speaking, the short words are the best, and the old words best of all.
Winston Churchill

Helmets and Cauliflowers

And take the helmet of salvation....
Ephesians 6:17a

Recommended Reading
Romans 8:5-9 ( http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans%208:5-9&version=NKJV )

Each of us owns a jewel more valuable than any displayed at Cartier's or Tiffany's. It's a three-pound blob of gray pulp resembling a rotting cauliflower. This jewel is the most incredible creation in God's universe, a fabulous, living supercomputer with unfathomable circuitry and unimaginable complexity. It's the human brain--a collection of billions of neurons, each as complex as a small computer. Yet the brain is only as useful as the material it feeds on. Our thoughts should be fixed on Christ and filled with His Word.

The Bible tells us to set our minds on things above, not on the things of earth (Colossians 3:2). Wearing the helmet of salvation means our minds are protected by the saving truth of Christ. We're transformed by the renewing of our minds (Romans 12:1-2), for those who live according to the Spirit set their mind on what the Spirit desires (Romans 8:5).

Psalm 37:3 tells us, "Feed on His faithfulness." Be careful what goes into your mind today. Remember that it's the battleground of the soul--and Christ has won the victory.

Our defeat or victory begins with what we think; and if we guard our thoughts, we shall not have much trouble anywhere else along the line.

Crossroads of Faith

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.
Proverbs 3:5-6

Recommended Reading
Hebrews 11:17-19 ( http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Hebrews%2011:17-19&version=NKJV )

When God makes a promise, we assume it is for keeps and plan accordingly. But what if God then gives instructions that, if carried out, would invalidate the planned-for results of the prior promise He made? What does faith require? We could argue with God about the new instructions: "What about Your original promise?" Or we could try to reconcile how two contradictory actions could result in a promise kept in a new way.

Abraham faced that crossroads. God told Abraham he would be the father of a great nation and gave he and Sarah a son as proof--a son from whom a nation would grow. Then God asked Abraham to offer up the son, Isaac, as a sacrifice--kill the son and the vision he represented. How could a nation grow from Abraham's seed if the seed is killed? Abraham concluded, by faith, that God intended to raise Isaac from the dead in order to fulfill His promise of a nation (Hebrews 11:17-19). Abraham passed God's trust-test and was allowed to sacrifice a ram instead of his son.

That's what faith does--trusts God even when God's ways go far beyond our own in understanding. Faith then goes out with joy and peace and anticipation (Isaiah 55:8-9, 11).

To fear and not be afraid--that is the paradox of faith.

The Shield of Faith

Above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.
Ephesians 6:16

Recommended Reading
Hebrews 11:1-2
http://www.turningpointonline.org/site/R?i=s8yZLaNUjwV_PtTgkCLkVA..

Ancient and medieval soldiers went into battle with shields the size and shape of small doors, large enough to hide behind. A phalanx of soldiers could interlock their shields in front of them or over their heads to form a wall of protection against incoming missiles. 

The "shield of faith" is the Christian's most important defensive weapon for this reason: If faith is defined as confidence in God and His Word, then it is faith that will defeat Satan's twisting, counterfeiting, and denial of who God is and what God has said. If a lie of Satan is like a fiery arrow coming directly at the Christian, then faith becomes the shield that keeps the arrow from finding its mark. Faith is how we walk daily (2 Corinthians 5:7). Faith is how we please God (Hebrews 11:6). And faith in Jesus Christ is the basis for "the life [we] now live in the flesh" (Galatians 2:20). But faith is more than belief--it is belief put into practice as the basis for a life of confidence in God.

When thoughts of doubt or despair come, raise your shield of faith--faith in God and the promises of His Word.

The beginning of anxiety is the end of faith, and the beginning of true faith is the end of anxiety.

Places of Greatness: Council Chambers

And all who sat in the counsel, looking steadfastly at him, saw his face as the face of an angel.
Acts 6:15

Recommended Reading
Acts 7:54-60
http://www.turningpointonline.org/site/R?i=cruwSyYbsN8SJBsTEmVhEA..

When Stephen was dragged before the Jewish Ruling Council for his faith in Christ, the charges flew like daggers. But he never lost his poise, simplicity of faith, or glowing countenance. His words that day were memorable, but his love for Jesus was his greatest testimony.

In his book, The Changed Life, Henry Drummond told of a woman of sterling character and radiant attitude who wore a locket around her neck. Her friends were curious about whose picture it contained, but the woman never opened it or revealed its contents. Only later did a friend, with permission, look inside the locket and learn the secret of her friend's moral radiance. Written within were the words, "Whom having not seen, I love." That was the secret of her beautiful life.1

Amid all life's conflicts, our greatest secret is our devotion to Him whom having not seen we love. The world has no answer to Christ in us. It's the hope of glory; it's our ultimate weapon.

O, how I love Jesus; O, how I love Jesus, because He first loved me!
Frederick Whitfield

A tire shop in Milwaukee advertised: "Invite us to your next blowout." An optometrist said, "If you don't see what you're looking for, you've come to the right place." And a California landscaper boasted: "We're Easy to Get a Lawn With." But when it comes to clever slogans, maybe the podiatrist had the best one when he said: "Put Your Feet in Our Hands!"

Most of us have learned that if our feet hurt, we hurt all over--and our feet hurt when we're wearing the wrong shoes. (Another podiatrist said: "Time Wounds All Heels," but that's enough slogans for now!) The point is that when we slip our feet into gospel shoes, we feel good all over. When we are shod with the Gospel of Peace, we needn't be anxious as we walk through life. We can cast all our cares on Him who said, "Do not worry about your life" (Matthew 6:25). The psalmist said, "Do not fret" (Psalm 37:1). And the apostle Paul said, "Be anxious for nothing" (Philippians 4:6).

God's shoes are easy on our souls!

If you are at peace with God through Jesus, then you are shod with peace... His Presence is an abiding reality in your experience.
