Discipleship – A Life Changing Ministry

 

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

When we talk about life-changing ministries, one comes to mind not only because it was the last thing Jesus commissioned us to do before He went up to His Father, but also because of the impact that ministry has had on the world and how quickly the gospel spread thanks to that ministry.

That ministry is DISCIPLESHIP.

Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.

Proverbs 22:6

God puts a clear emphasis on training. We’re not born knowing things, we are trained in them as we grow older. The same thing happens when people are born again; they are babies in the Lord, knowing only that they were saved from their old life and are now a new creation.

What about everything else? The rest is squired through the ministry of discipleship, through teaching and training.

When people first hear the gospel, many are touched deeply, because God’s word does not return to Him in vain. What happens next can determine whether those people will remain on the path of truth or steer from it. That is why Proverbs 22:6 speaks about the importance of ongoing training, which will consolidate people in their walk of faith.

After we wrap up our Gospel Campaign, having received such an overwhelming response from people, it is crucial to press forward with the next natural step after evangelism, which is discipleship.

That is why the periodic discipleship courses we launch after every gospel campaign are so crucial and life-changing. So many changed lives, transformed hearts and restored families are a testament to the importance of investing in discipleship in Israel.

As we prepare to launch our discipleship course for our newest group of recently saved, as well as “seekers”, we give glory to God for the 40 people that are finishing our previous discipleship course. Every single one of them having received Yeshua into their hearts, have been trained in the Word of God over the course of two months, and now has the tools to stand strong on a solid foundation, as they initiate their walk with the Lord and become an active member of the congregation.

Consider supporting our ongoing Discipleship work in Israel, which has proven time and time again how important it is to God, and what amazing fruit it bears in building His Kingdom in Israel.

There are Israelis who have lived their entire lives in the land of the Bible and have never once heard the Gospel clearly explained to them. They know the names of Abraham, Moses, David, and the prophets. They walk the same land where Yeshua lived and ministered. Many know His name—but know Him only as the […]
