A light to the nations Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

Prosperity Preachers or Great Commission Teachers?

Not a self-serving ministry
But sinners saved, when speaking
Not into personal prosperity
But lost souls, we’re seeking.

God declared unto Abram
I will bless those, who bless you
And I will curse him, who curses you
All families on earth, blessed thro’ you.

O how selfish, and sinful
We keep God’s Word within
Are not praying and sharing
With our world, so full of sin.

Our declaration – we will shout
From every pinnacle, pay any price
The only hope, for this dying world
Is a relationship, with Jesus Christ.

So, let our little light
Shine forth, for God’s truth
Be His beacon, His lighthouse
Amidst darkness, untruth.

Yet in many, local churches
Few are discipled, equipped
‘How to’ witness, make disciples
This instead, largely skipped.

We must hunger for God
Abide daily, in Jesus’ vine
Come dwell in His courts
We’re made dependent, by design.

So, daily hunger for God
For hungry souls, that yearn
To follow Jesus, and multiply
A fruitful harvest, in return.

So may church leaders, obey
Begin equipping the saints
For the work of the ministry
‘Fishers of men,’ to create.

With God’s people, compromising
Many passive, pew sitting
So, God’s ‘Royal Priesthood’
His call, are not fulfilling.
