February 2009 Oklahoma Outlook 2

AAmmeerriiccaa iiss iinn tthhee mmiiddsstt ooffttrraannssiittiioonn.. The inauguration of PresidentObama has captured the attention of notonly the nation but the entire world hasbeen focused on the future of The UnitedStates of America.

What does the future hold? Whatcan America expect to see and experiencein the days ahead? Will the approvalrating continue to swell as anticipationfills the hearts of millions?

This is not only an hour for actionfrom politicians, but a mandate for theChurch to respond. BBeelliieevveerrss sshhoouulldd bbeeffiilllleedd wwiitthh hhooppee aass vvooiicceess aarree lliifftteedd iinnpprraayyeerr ffoorr oouurr PPrreessiiddeenntt aanndd oouurr eelleecctteeddooffffiicciiaallss.. The Church is not called to anhour of criticism but instead to a lifestyleof intercessory prayer.

In the midst of political changes,economic uncertainty, and challenges athome as well as abroad, there is muchbeing said about accountability, openness,responsibility, and effectiveness.

It is easy to expect such requirementsfrom others while forgetting to examineour own lives and actions. We often sayin one manner or another that tthheerree iiss nnoohhiigghheerr ccaalllliinngg iinn tthhee wwoorrlldd tthhaann tthhaattccoommmmiitttteedd ttoo aa mmiinniisstteerr ooff tthhee GGoossppeell..We must remember that to whom much isgiven – much is required.

In order to be effective, anindividual’s life must be constantly underreview. Those who have said YYEESS to thecall of God would do well to take note ofthe following:

AA mmiinniisstteerr hhaass nnoo ggrreeaatteerr oobblliiggaattiioonnffoorr aaccccoouunnttaabbiilliittyy tthhaann tthhaatt dduuee ttoo GGoodd..Too often the pressures of life, both fromsituations and people, dictate direction;

however, our chief focus must be toremember that it is God who demandsour allegiance. At the end of the day, Heis the One to whom we answer.

TThhee WWoorrdd ooff GGoodd mmuusstt bbee oouurr sswwoorrddaanndd sshhiieelldd.. A minister must be astudent, knowledgeable of current events,well-read in contemporary matters, andcapable of communicating with a 21stcentury society. However, the primaryBook must be His Book. His Word mustbe the resource from which our speechproceeds.

AA lliiffee ooff pprraayyeerr mmuusstt bbee mmooddeelleedd,,pprraaccttiicceedd,, aanndd eevviiddeenntt.. There should beno one more at ease in talking with Godthan the minister of the Gospel. Godmust be a personal friend and the primaryaccountability partner. This relationshiponly develops through a lifestyle based onprayer.

TThhee mmiinniisstteerr mmuusstt rreemmeemmbbeerr ““tthheeccaallll”” aanndd tthhee ccoommmmiittmmeenntt ttoo ccoommpplleetteetthhee ttaasskk.. Regrettably, not all who acceptHis call are able to step across the finishline. Nothing in life – people, pressuresor positions – should be able to separateus from the goal of hearing Him say,“Well done!”

TThhee ffiirrsstt aanndd pprriimmaarryy iinnddiivviidduuaall ttoowwhhoomm aa mmiinniisstteerr oowweess ccoommmmiittmmeenntt iiss ttoohhiiss oorr hheerr ssppoouussee.. Too many times, theone to whom we vowed a lifetimebecomes neglected in the quest of beingall things to all people. True ministrybegins at home – and unless it is effectivethere, it will fail in public scrutiny.

TThhee mmiinniissttrryy sshhoouulldd nnoott bbee tthheeeexxccuussee ggiivveenn ffoorr bbeeiinngg aann aabbsseenntt ppaarreenntt..The family that God has given to aminister must become his most valuedpossession. Parenting is perhaps thegreatest challenge given to any individualand the minister must seek to succeed inthis assignment if life is to be fulfillingand rewarding.

TThhee ccoommmmuunniittyy ooff bbeelliieevveerrss bbeeccoommeesstthhee mmiinniisstteerriiaall pprriioorriittyy ffoorr tthhee pprreeaacchheerr..A minister’s place of service whetherelected, appointed, or serving as a staffmember – requires accountability and alife of service. Remember, God rewardsfaithfulness and serving His Body is ahigh and holy calling.

AA mmiinniisstteerr iiss kknnoowwnn bbyy hhiisstteessttiimmoonnyy tthhrroouugghhoouutt tthhee ccoommmmuunniittyy.. Aminister cannot neglect his own place ofcalling. Neither should one “hide” in themidst of the congregation. The effectiveminister will be known and recognized asa voice for God throughout thecommunity. We are called to “our world”and a devoted life will be known by bothsaint and sinner.

PrayJesus often spoke about

the role of prayer in theChristian’s life and the church.He guaranteed His presencewhen two or more gather inunity to pray. He alsopromised to act wheneverbelievers speak to God in theauthority of Christ’s name.Jesus taught that God is to bethe focus of our petitions, andHe showed by example thatthe basis for ministry is communion with the Father. If we want God to release Hispower into our situation, it’s important to do two things:

First, depend solely on Jesus’ merits. Our new life as children of God began whenwe acknowledge our helplessness and accepted Christ’s substitutionary death on ourbehalf. He acted as our mediator and reconciled us to the Father. If we want God todo mighty works in and through us, we must continue in the same spirit of dependenceon Christ.

Second, separate from all known sin. At the cross, when the Savior paid ourpenalty from transgression, sin’s controlling power over us was broken. However, itspresence remains in this world and also lingers in us. Gossip, laziness, gluttony, andselfishness are everyday occurrences. The remedy for every sin is to confess it to God,turn away from the attitude or behavior, and receive God’s forgiveness and cleaning.He will only use cleansed vessels.

If we are going to make big requests of God, we must come to Him with cleanhearts and hands—that is, solely on the merits of His Son Jesus.

No one is left out in God’seconomy. This gospel includeseveryone. Joel said so (Joel 2:32);Peter said so (Acts 2:21), as hequoted Joel; Paul said so (Romans10:13); and of course, Jesus said soas well (John 3:16). No ethnic,cultural, economic, or social groupexempts one from God’s grace andlove found in the Gospel of JesusChrist.

The most socially rejected peoplehave found grace in the eyes ofGod. Exodus 12:38 tells us, “…Anda mixed multitude went up also withthem…” One Bible scholar calledthe mixed group that left Egyptwith the Hebrew children, amongrel group. The impure andcross-breeds, who had noidentification, were just asdelivered as the children of Israel.

How about the Samaritan womanat the well? Culturally, Jesus shouldnot have talked to her. First of all,she was a woman, secondly, she wasa Samaritan (half-blood). Not onlydid Jesus talk to her, he promisedher living water.

The New Testament notes thatbarriers separating us from oneanother have been broken downthrough the life and sacrificial

death of Jesus Christ (Galatians3:26-28; Colossians 3:11).Jesus died for all peopleeverywhere: the Jew, the Gentile,and the Palestinian; the drug user,the drug dealer and the old-fashioned alcoholic, Jesus died forall the adulterers and adulteresses,as well as the homosexuals, andeven those who commit incest. Hedied for all the thieves, arsonists,and murderers, the gang membersand war lords. Jesus died for thelast, the least, and the lost; thebeaten, the broken, and thebruised; the hapless, the helpless,and the hopeless. Jesus died for theAIDS victim. He died for all theprodigals. And, He died for youand me.

A lot! Children, teenagers, collegestudents, and other adults areanswering the call to ministry. Theyoung are volunteering for the hardplaces. Last month we returnedfrom the World Summit inCincinnati, Ohio where 4,000people met to explore the spiritualneeds of the world. Of this greatnumber approximately 1,000collegians committed themselves togive a year to missions and prayabout a lifetime.

Spanish ministry in Oklahoma isexploding! Our own OklahomaSchool of Ministry includes 30Spanish speaking enrollees.Missionary Mark Fitzgeraldcontinues to receive and pursueinquiries from Spanish groups across

Oklahoma. In fact, on January 10th,Brother Fitzgerald hosted an all daymeeting for Spanish speakingpastors. I certainly didn’tunderstand all that was said, but theenthusiasm and spirit of the comingtogether blessed me richly.

The Volunteer Prison MinistriesNetwork shows signs of greaterinvolvement and growth. On January, 12th I attended thededication of the New HopeChristian Center in Chickasha. Thisfaith based center will provide lifechallenging education programs forthose leaving the penal system andthose needing help with chemicaldependence. Chickasha FirstAssembly is the owner of this newfacility, while Chaplain TravisHendricks oversees its dailyoperation.

From our volunteers acrossOklahoma it has been reported thatin 2008, 458 worship services havebeen provided with 45,484 inmatesin attendance. It has also beenreported that 1250 Bibles have beenpersonally given out, and 4898other books and materials. Thetotal number of converts is 467.These reported numbers areconservative with many not beingreported.

In 2009, the volunteer prisonworkers will meet on each 5thSaturday. The place will beannounced each time. Please callthe District Missions Office orChaplain Hendricks at ChickashaFirst Assembly for details.

It takes boththe large Faith Promises as well asthe small Faith promises to makethe grand total. Because of thefaithful giving to these funds, I wasable to help some very intentionalwomen in El Salvador.

This past October, I went on atrip with other district Women’sdirectors and our national director,Arlene Allen, to El Salvador. Wewere guests of Convoy of Hope andwe were taken to several places in El

Salvador where Convoy is helpingchildren in schools and

orphanages. I was impressedwith what Convoy of Hopeis doing to help thechildren of El Salvador toreceive a good, Christianeducation.

However, whattouched me most werethe teachers at oneschool we visited. Wedrove an hour over dirtroads to reach theschool. The schoolwas nice, but becauseof the location the 6

female teachers had to live at theschool during the week. I could notbelieve their livingaccommodations. Six teachers livedin 2 small rooms—one room was akitchen with a stove and table.They slept in hammocks and had noplace to store their belongings.Their bathroom was a sink outsidethat faced the street. They had putup a sheet so they could take their“sponge” baths. The toilets wereacross the school yard. I looked intothe faces of 6 intentional womenwho were willing to live this way inorder for underprivileged children tohave a chance not only to learn toread and write, but also to learnabout Jesus.

My heart was extremelytouched—touched to the point thatI asked what could be done to maketheir accommodations better. I wastold that 2 more bedrooms and abathroom could be added to thefacilities and new paint for theexisting rooms for $10,000.00.Because our Oklahoma women andgirls have given sacrificially this pastyear, I was able to send $10,000.00to them immediately when Ireturned to Oklahoma. Therenovation should be ready whentheir new school year begins inMarch! Thank you Oklahomawomen and girls!!!
