(Discipling the Nations)
TO THE BIBLE: John 4:34
“Jesus said to them, ‘My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish His work’”
LET’S TALK
‘’David, do you think sharing Rhapsody with our classmates really makes a difference?” Maya asked.
David smiled. “Of course it does. One message can change someone’s whole life. That’s how the mission keeps going.”
Maya nodded. “Then let’s not stop. Let’s keep reaching people.”
Doing the Father’s will and finishing His work was the Lord’s primary focus and utmost desire; it was His satisfaction and fulfilment.
That same Spirit and conviction drove us to complete the full preaching of the Gospel to every nation by the end of 2025. But the mission of the Gospel continues. This means that even as young people, we still have an important part to play.
We must keep preaching and teaching the nations how to live as the Lord instructs in Matthew 28:19-20, “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 whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”
This is the Father’s will, and it should be your vision and shape your life’s priorities. It should guide the choices you make in school, online, and with your friends.
Habakkuk 2:14 declares, “For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.” Let your life be driven by this vision.
Every soul you win, every copy of Rhapsody of Realities you distribute, every seed you sow in faith into the spread of the Gospel, all contribute to the fulfilment of the great vision of Habakkuk 2:14. Even small actions, like inviting someone to church or sending a message about Jesus, matter.
Therefore, refuse to be distracted. Live for the joy of unveiling to others the Christ-life, educating them on the transcendence and supreme dominion of the righteousness we possess in Him.
Don’t let social media, peer pressure, or distractions pull you away from God’s purpose for your life. Be committed to discipling the nations, teaching them and establishing them in the truth of the Gospel.

Pray:
Dear Father, thank you for counting me faithful to be a part of your end-time work. I live for the fulfilment of your divine mandate to teach all nations and impact people around the world with the knowledge of your living Word. Help me to shine for you in my school, home, and community. I’m strengthened, stirred and empowered by the Holy Spirit for this great task, for my life is for your glory and the advancement of your Kingdom, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
