Our Holiest Example

"I have set the LORD always before me: because He is at my right hand, I shall
not be moved" (Psalm 16:8).

This is the way to live. With God always before us, we shall have the noblest
companionship, the holiest example, the sweetest consolation, and the mightiest
influence. This must be a resolute act of the mind. "I have set," and it must
be maintained as a set and settled thing. Always to have an eye to the LORD's
eye and an ear for the LORD's voice--this is the right state for the godly man.
His God is near him, filling the horizon of his vision, leading the way of his
life, and furnishing the theme of his meditation. What vanities we should
avoid, what sins we should overcome, what virtues we should exhibit, what joys
we should experience if we did indeed set the LORD always before us! Why not?

This is the way to be safe. The LORD being ever in our minds, we come to feel
safety and certainty because of His being so near. He is at our right hand to
guide and aid us; and hence we are not moved by fear, nor force, nor fraud, nor
fickleness. When God stands at a man's right hand, that man is himself sure to
stand. Come on, then, ye foemen of the truth! Rush against me like a furious
tempest, if ye will. God upholds me. God abides with me. Whom shall I fear?

YOU CAN PUT A   MISSIONARY ON THE FIELD


All Christians are concerned about missions and desire to support the
missionaries who have given their lives for the sake of the Gospel. However,
most Christians never become personally involved in any international mission
endeavor. Many are discouraged because the closest they come to the mission
field is putting money in an envelope or an offering plate. Most never imagine
that they could support a full-time missionary on their own and become
personally involved in their ministry. Through the HeartCry Missionary Society,
you can support an indigenous missionary to work full-time in the ministry for
as little as $150 a month. You can support
a missionary as a family project, involving your children, or you and your
friends can support a missionary together to share the blessing and the cost.
You can also support a missionary through your church family. Contact us and we
can prayerfully workout all the details. We know of countless qualified
indigenous missionaries who are worthy of support. God can use you to be a
blessing in their lives and to bless you in return. Though you may not be
called to go, you can be an instrument of sending a missionary and interceding
for them in prayer.
Each individual, group, or church who chooses to sponsor a specific indigenous
missionary will receive: ù A photograph of the missionary and his or her
family. ù Their personal testimony of conversion and calling. ù Quarterly
updates and prayer requests. ù Personal correspondence.
ù Depending on the country selected, the supporter may visit the missionary on
the field.
We look forward to hearing from you and count it a privilege to help you
participate in the greatest of all endeavors - the preaching of the Gospel of
Jesus Christ to the very ends of the earth.

WHAT PART OF .GO. DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND? WE ARE EITHER CALLED TO GO DOWN INTO
THE WELL OR TO HOLD THE ROPE FOR THOSE WHO HAVE GONE DOWN. EITHER WAY, THE
SCARS ON OUR HANDS WILL BE THE EVIDENCE OF OUR OBEDIENCE. WHERE ARE OUR SCARS?
HAVE WE SURRENDERED OUR LIFE TO GO OR TO SUPPORT THOSE WHO GO? WHAT HAS THE
GREAT COMMISSION COST US?
