Ask Me For The Nations!

By: Gene Quiocho

• Evangelism and Missions is a matter of obedience to God’s word.

• Evangelism and Missions has everything to do with our conviction about God’s word.

What’s Your Conviction?

• Psalm 2:8 (KJV)

8 Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

• God declares if we ask He will give us the nations!

• What are you in the habit of asking God for?

It’s A Matter Of Asking

• Isaiah 49:6 (NIV)• 6 he says: “It is too small a thing for you to

be my servant to restore the tribes of Jacob and bring back those of Israel I have kept. I will also make you a light for the Gentiles, that my salvation may reach to the ends of the earth.”

• Matthew 5:14-16 (NIV)• 14 “You are the light of the world. A town

built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

• God wants our lives to ‘burn’ with evidence of His love and kindness, mercy and grace for all the world to see

It’s A Matter Of Being

• Acts 1:8 (NIV)• 8 But you will receive power when the

Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”

• 3 John 1:7 (NIV)• 7 It was for the sake of the Name that

they went out, receiving no help from the pagans.

• The Holy Spirit empowers us to declare God’s Good News with words and deeds for the sake of His name!

• We have Holy Spirit power for a purpose and that’s to make Christ known in the world!

It’s A Matter Of Doing

• 2 Peter 1:21(NIV)• 21 For prophecy never had its origin in the

human will, but prophets, though human, spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.

• Hebrews 1:1 (NIV)• 1 In the past God spoke to our ancestors

through the prophets at many times and in various ways,

• John 1:14 (NIV)• 14 The Word became flesh and made his

dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

• We speak on God’s behalf and God speaks through us, we become ‘living epistles’ of the Gospel! We become living models/examples for the world!

It’s A Matter Of Availability

• Romans 1:16 (NIV)

• 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.

• Every time we open our mouths and communicate the Gospel the Kingdom of God invades the present and once more destroys the work of the enemy!

• We can manifest the Kingdom to come in the present when we declare the Gospel every time!

We Have Knockout Power!

• Matthew 7:7 (NIV)

• 7 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.

• What are you asking for?

• What are you seeking after?

• What are you interceding for?

• God declares “ask me and I’ll give you the nations”. Take Him at His word!
