God isn't calling everybody to Asia or Africa..he may be calling you to the "strange land" right down your own block! The people down the block from you, may not be the most pleasant folk..but they STILL need Jesus! so when they come to you asking for sugar for a recipe, don't avoid them..open your door (no flesh allowed) and give them JESUS!
Matthew 25:21 "His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'
How can ANYONE really expect God to move you out to another land when the lands he given you are neglected and tossed aside. He'll give you more , when you can be proven faithful with what he gives you first! The introduction of Jesus is "you", coming to the door and not your flesh.Flesh has the reaction that is doesn't want to be involved or bothered, but allowing 'who is greater within you' to come forth FIRST makes the difference in delivery.
Going into all the earth is not just the 7 continents, it's going to your neighbors , the clerk at the grocery store, the Hospital waiting rooms,orphanages, unemployment offices and so on.We must ask the Lord "who can YOU use me to help here, this day and I'll be sure to go where you send me and I'll recieve those in whom you send that I may bring them to your only begotten Son,Jesus Christ!".God gives the assignment(s), we must not try to TELL God what assignment is right for us to do.Running everywhere else other than what God has assigned is foolishness.So often people pray the prayers of send me here or send me there...well what happened to the widow or even the orphan, the single parent , those that are unemployed two doors down from them that don't know Jesus? they need Jesus just as badly as those in other nations.I pray priorities get in order at this time in Jesus name! Beggars (of an assignment) can't be chosers. Go where God sends you and no where else.
Luke 16:10 "Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.
