Dec 6, 2017 · God’s calling is powerful and influential. It was so influential that I decided to take a step in faith and quit my job in order to serve the One greater than I. “ Now listen, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money.”.

The first caution is this: I think it is invalid to persuade yourself to leave a job and enter a new ministry if the argument that you use to persuade yourself necessarily puts other obedient people in the category of disobedient.

Second caution: Joshua is clearly concerned that he not come to the end of his life and have to admit, “I didn’t truly do everything, use every ounce of strength, give every fiber of my being to the kingdom of God.” Well, that’s a worthy aspiration. Here’s the caution: it is possible to be a missionary living in an extremely risky place and be kill...
Here’s the third caution: keep in mind that aiming to be a martyr is turning a God-decided result of faithfulness into a self-decided definition of faithfulness. You shouldn’t do that.
