God’s Mission Manifesto - ministry from Annual Mission Day 2023 (Jim Sayers)

Jim Sayers (formerly Communications Director with GBM and now church planting pastor at Grace Church Didcot) closes AMD 2023 with ministry from Malachi 1:11, '"My name will be great among the nations; from where the sun rises to where it sets, in every place incense and pure offerings will be brought to me, because my name will be great among the nations" says the Lord Almighty.'

 

1. The motivation for mission is the glory of God. 

‘My name will be great.’ 

 

2. The direction of mission is to every nation. 

‘My name will be great among the nations.’

 

3. The task of mission is the proclamation of Christ. 

‘from where the sun rises to where it sets.’

 

4. The goal of mission is the worship of God. 

     ‘In every place incense and pure offerings will be brought to me.’ 

 

5. The zeal of God will achieve this. ‘because my name will be great among the nations,’ says the Lord Almighty.’
