A-B-C

It is always easier to stay inside an institution, in the churches or to stay in an outreach Centre. And…. expect the people to come in to us.

Good we have true fellowship in there, but Jesus went also out to the people. He also sent His disciples out to the people. The Bible is full or “sendings”.

One truth we see in Ubon-Pakse is that when we go out to the people we understand that the people have already been praying and crying out for help like in Exodus 3: 7-17
Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel has come to Me, and I have also seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them. 10 Come now, therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring My people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.”

And when Moses obeyed, God worked miracles. So the Biblical principle is visible.

a) People cry out in their need for God for help.
b) God sends people to them
c) God can then act and take people into the promise land.
       
                                                                                                           

God help us to be strengthen in´side in the fellowship, but also dare to go out to all crying for help.
