How did I get a desire? I grew closer to God, and soon saw that we are all called to be disciples. And my understanding of disciple is that “a disciple makes more disciples” God cares about numbers, he even named a book of the Bible after it. The more people who have an honest look at God, his character, and his promises the better. The more disciples God can call, grow, and place into ministry...the better. We need to ACT as if God was coming by the end of 2008. We need to run to and fro and increase in knowledge, but OUR purpose in that is to be better equipped to make disciples of all the nations, teaching them to follow Jesus, and baptizing them in ALL THREE parts of the Godhead.
When I learned this I realized that we too shall be called patriarchs and prophets. Walking on water, healing, casting out demons, converting thousands, does not have to be the privilege of the the people in the Bible only. A life on the edge, a life working beside HIM, has got to be exciting and fulfilling. None of this motivation is as paramount as knowing that the ONE who imagined you and caused your birth, also loves every one else and has requested that we who know him, help others to also know him.
