Christ’s Sacri fi ce Is the Fuel of the Missionary Movement

White-hot faith is the fuel that missionary movements run on. Nothing happens without a deep dependence on God. Nothing leads us into a healthy dependence on the power of God more than to come face to face with our desperate need of him. Jesus is the Apostle and Pioneer of our faith. He led the way for us in surrender to the will of God and the power of the Holy Spirit. ~ Steve Addison

B. B REAK IT DOWN ! We cannot follow God’s plan without making the sacrifice that the plan requires. No sacrifice, no plan!

1. It’s a hard sacrifice. 2 Cor. 4.7-12 – But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us. [8] We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; [9] persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; [10] always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our bodies. [11] For we who live are always being given over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh. [12] So death is at work in us, but life in you.
