Fulfilling Your Destiny
Journey Into The Promised Land
A Monumental Task
A long time ago, this ministry felt led to take a giant step of faith — a giant step — seemingly far greater than any challenge we had undertaken before. For years I have been going to the far corners of the earth to conduct mass overseas crusades. As many as 300,000 people have attended a single service. Multitudes are healed of every disease and affliction imaginable and even more are touched spiritually through these crusades. But the main thrust and burden of my heart in these overseas meetings has not been the crusades themselves but very special meetings held during the day for the training and motivation of Nationals.
I was thinking about this explosion of the world’s population and wondering how we could ever do the work Jesus gave us to do — how we could go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature. Then God gave me a vision and concept that for the first time I saw how this seemingly impossible task is possible. It can be done in our generation!
God led me to conduct Schools of Ministry where Nationals from all over the world can receive training to bring their own countries the message and power of the resurrected Christ. This is not another Bible college, university, or school of theology, but the School of Ministry is an intensified training for Nationals to learn to work the works of God effectively in their own countries. For the first time I could see how we can overtake the heathen!
As part of each School of Ministry, I have some of the key National ministers preach and pray for the sick in the last crusade services. I just stand back and pray quietly and let them minister. What joy as they realize that the same Holy Spirit Who anoints Morris Cerullo also anoints them and uses their ministries to bring miracles of deliverance and healing! They leave those meetings transformed! I have seen it happen over and over again — men who have preached to very small groups soon have congregations of hundreds and thousands.
When God gave me this breathtaking concept, I knew it was a big step. Circumstances would certainly have been frightening and would have disheartened me if I had allowed myself to look at them or to dwell on them. But I had to look past the bigness of the task to the greatness of God.
Has God given you a monumental task to accomplish? Do you feel overwhelmed? I’m sure that mountain looked pretty big to Caleb too. After all, he was over eighty years of age.
Don’t look to the bigness of your task today. Look to the bigness of your God.
Make this declaration:
I will not look to the monumental task God has given me. I will look to God. Give me that mountain!
