Proclaiming the kingdom of God and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, unhindered. (Acts 28:31, RecVer)
The book of Acts still continues with the believers carrying out the proclaimation of the kingdom of God and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, unhindered. For over the past two thousands years, this proclamation has been continuing as the "continuing Acts of the believers" today. In this continuation, all the genuine believers who are one with Christ in His heavenly ministry are proactively participating in writing the divine history within the human history. As we live, we are writing our history. The question is, is the history that one writes a part of the divine history? To be a part of the divine history, the human history must be in sync with the Lord's move to carry out God’s divine purpose on the earth. For this, one's living must be Christ's living again on the earth, one's doing must be the Holy Spirit's act in him and through him, and the goal of such a living is the doing of the will of God on the earth unto the glory of God. Such a living is a living in the oneness of the Body of Christ and a move in the Body of Christ for the building up of the Body of Christ for the preparation of the Bride of Christ to usher in the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ!
For such a divine move, one must take action in time and not be passive any longer. There is no more time to waste. More than two thousand years have passed, and I believe, our brethren in the past had done their best. Now, the baton has been passed on to us, and believers of this generation must proactively take action by offering themselves up willingly for the Lord’s move today. The need of the hour is to take action.
Your people will offer themselves willingly in the day of Your warfare, In the splendor of their consecration. Your young men will be to You like the dew from the womb of the dawn. (Psalms 110:3, RecVer)
First, by consecration, consecrating our lives to the Lord. Only then, the Lord will have a free way to work Himself into and and work through us. Following this consecration, all the practical details of daily living, gospel move, shepherding, perfecting, and building will follow suit. Then, the churches will witness revival not only of the outward manifestation but also the inward reviving, enlightening, enlivening, and energizing and proactively continue the book of Acts, chapter by chapter, verse by verse; year by year, day by day; and continuing till the Lord’s coming again in carrying out the great commission.
Lord this, I have consecrated my life to the Lord, my family, and all that the Lord blessed me with, to continue the book Acts, proactively writing the divine history in my human history.
Go therefore and disciple all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,Teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you all the days until the consummation of the age. (Matthew 28:19-20, RecVer)
