Daniel 12:3 ‘And they that be wise shall be shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.’

DAILY READING; Mark 7:14-37; Samuel 18; Daniel 11:21-45

John Wesley, founder of the Methodist Church, was one of England’s greatest spiritual leaders. He played a major role in the 18th-century revival in England.
Though he was small in physical size, Wesley was a spiritual giant who burned with the zeal to bring multitudes into God’s kingdom.
He traveled the length and breadth of England, preaching, during an age when roads were often only muddy ruts.
Some of the times, preaching was not easy as he often met crowds that were hostile. Once a bull was let loose in an audience he was addressing.
Yet none of the hostilities and oppositions could stop Wesley from pressing forward in his call. He was determined to declare the whole counsel of God, warning men of the dreadful consequences of sin and leading them to salvation..
He dealt with the hindrances to his ministry through prayers. Wesley was known for his lifestyle of fasting and prayers. He would rise up at 4 am every day to seek God for the first four hours of the day.
As he persevered spiritually, soon the power of God that manifested through his ministry, silenced the naysers.
The manifestations of healings, signs and wonders drew people to the Gospel and brought many to repentance..
Wesley marched through cities, preaching, teaching, pleading, and warning men to make peace with God while there was still time.
In all, it is estimated he traveled 226,000 miles in his ministry and preached 46,000 times.
A man of extraordinarily health, he remained active to the end of his life, preaching his final sermon at an open-air meeting just 4 months before his death on March 2, 1791, in London.
Today, tens of millions of people are part of the Christian faith because of the work of Wesley.

With recent escalation of hostilities in Eastern Europe, the world seems poised for a third world war.
We should not be surprised because the Bible has already predicted that towards the time of the end there would be wars and rumours of wars.
The truth is that things are gradually coming to a climax on earth. And for every believer, it can no longer be Christianity as usual, we must do whatever is required to reach the world for Christ while there is still time..
All over the world we can see end-time predictions of the Bible being fulfilled before our very eyes.
In these last days, it is God’s plan that we position ourselves to be used to usher as many souls as possible into His kingdom..
We just have a narrow window of opportunity to fulfill the great commission before every door, finally shuts permanently. Let us not therefore squander the grace available to us at this hour.
Let us do all we should, while we still can, to preach the Word of life to a dying world.

In Mark 16, Jesus commanded us to go into the world and preach the Gospel to every creature. It is not an option, it is a commandment. It means we are mandated to preach to every one we can while we can.
To this end, there is a need for us to grow spiritually because we can’t give what we don’t have. We must be revived before we can revive others. We must be on fire before we can ignite the world.
Let us therefore today, receive the grace for renewed fire on our prayer altar, diligent study of God’s Word and unbroken fellowship with the Holy Spirit.
Whatever we do, wherever we go, let us keep burning with the fire and fervency of the Gospel. Let us keep shinning the light of Christ into the world to draw men into God’s kingdom. As we do this, God promises to establish us as stars that will shine forever. (Daniel 12:3)

PRAYER; Lord, Please enable me to obey the great commission and preach the Gospel with boldness. Please grant me renewed appetite for Your Word, so that I will always burn with the fervency and zeal to spread the Gospel wherever I go in Jesus Name.
