“As we therefore have opportunity. Let’s us do good unto all men, especially unto those

Who are of the household of faith.”

I Peter 5:8 The devil’s job is to roam and attack as a roaring Lion, all Christians.

You are here to provide: comfort, simply sometimes to listen, encourage, maybe to

properly administer (“iron sharpened iron” Prov. 27:17 ), compassion with sympathy

and empathy

Acts 20:25 Support one another- you do not know when someone else may be hurting

“It is more blessed to give than receive.”

Romans 15:22-33 Chara and Suna

“That I may come unto you with joy by the will of God, and may with you be refreshed.”

Joy- “Chara” be the one to bring life, vigor, energy, enthusiasm..

Refreshment- “Suna”

Synthesize- make beautiful music and harmony

Unity- develop and unity (teamwork), battle together

Give Rest-or even take on someone else’s burden (Gal. )

“Ana”- keep in touch with each other

Be the Epaphras- labor fervently

Be the Onesiphorus – bring profit

Memory Verse: Galatians 6:10

“As we therefore have opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto those who are of the household of faith.”

New Years’ Service - Vision Casting 2026

Proverbs 29:18

“Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.”

VISION - What are we going to do?

The Great Commission

Matthew 28:18-20

“And Jesus came and spake unto them saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”

Preach (share the gospel, make disciples)
Baptize (testimony of obedience of their faith)
Teach (to look like Jesus; progressive sanctification-hagios)

** Promise that Jesus will always be with us.

We are here to glorify God and for His pleasure

Revelation 4:11

“Thou are worthy, O Lord, to received glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.”

The Great Commission - Part 2

Acts 1:8

“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.”

Power (dunamis-dynamite) of Jesus
Holy Ghost - dwelling in every believer
Witnesses (martyr-give of your life to)

Jerusalem - Household

Judea – neighbors, co-workers, friends

Samaria - those that may be considered the outcasts

Uttermost part - everywhere and until the end of mankind

MISSION - How are we going to do it?

Acts 2:42

“And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.”

Devoting ourselves to:

Apostles’ doctrine - Bible
Fellowship - Koinonia
Breaking of Bread (BOB) - Lord’s supper and discipleship (3 people)
Worship - Proseuche

Where: Acts 1:8

“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.”

Receive Power (dunamis) - God’s dynamite power

Witnesses - to present the good news of the Gospel to the end of being a willing martyr

Jerusalem - home and surrounding neighbors

Judea – neighbors, co-workers, friends

Samaria - outcasts or those who may be “unlovely”

Uttermost part of the earth - wherever you may travel both domestic or foreign

2026 Challenge:

Personal Vision Casting:

Home:

Ministry:

Church:

Sharing the gospel and/or your testimony

Jerusalem: Home (family), neighbors

Judea: Neighbors, work/school, etc.

Samaria: Someone you may be “uncomfortable” with (safety first)

Uttermost: When you are out and about (shopping, meal, etc.)
