Why am I standing here
first week of june
Titus 1:4-7
The 813 Coast Guard ship had 12 crew members on board.
Among them, a young man who believed well in Jesus evangelized and 9 people accepted Jesus.
These 10 people were having a gracious time to have a morning worship service and share the word together, but one day, each of them received an order to transfer to another unit, and they all dispersed.
Although we were so zealous, it also made us feel sad.
But a few days later, June 23, 1964! This ship was abducted by North Korea.
Through their testimonies, these ten people said, “God never forsakes us, He has given us a way of escape! “he confesses.
Dido in the text also had to be left alone on the island of Crete... It must have been sad.
How long Paul stayed on the island of Crete and left is not described in detail in the Bible.
Why did Paul leave Titus behind?
In the Apostle Paul's letter, it is said that "they were to appoint elders."
We need to examine the will of God who sent me and made me do this work in all places in our lives.
I met him briefly in the nursery a while ago.
“You look very tired, but if you have any difficulties, please tell me anytime~~” I said, “I’ll tell you when I can’t move my body!” You did!
Dido had two things to do.
First, as in verse 5, organize the rest of the work...
The Crete Church had a lot of work to do as a pioneering church.
So Titus was tasked with finishing the work left behind after Paul left.
We need to look back on who we are now. Why did you appoint me as an official in the church? as teachers, deacons, and elders.
God wants us to make His church whole through us.
Second, in order to have elders in each city. . .
The island of Crete was characterized by strong idolatry. It was difficult to lead a right life of faith. Why did Paul say to appoint elders?
Titus was tasked with raising up a man dedicated enough to serve the church and give his all.
No matter how hard it may be, this is the happiest place the Lord has given you.
I pray that you will become a week who discovers God's will by taking good care of what we do in our lives.
