The Eternal Kingdom: ONE ASSIGNMENT

THOUGHTS ON THE ETERNAL KINGDOM

GOD’S WORD FOR 2015 AND BEYOND

YOU HAVE ONE ASSIGNMENT!!

During 2014 we shared about being all you can be for God. We trust that by now you understand that living for Jesus is not just about meeting with other Christians, reading your Bible or doing good deeds in Jesus’ name. It means growing to know God and living to fulfill His purpose.

Part of His purpose for you is fulfilling the “One Assignment” He gave His Church. “Go and make Disciples.” Disciples are people who grow to know God, and live to fulfill God’s purpose for them by seeking to obey the Holy Spirit.

People want to see unity in The Church, justice and peace in The World, the manifestation of Christ and the sons of God in the earth, etc. All the good things we are looking for are the fruit of carrying out the ”One Assignment” Jesus gave us, “go make Disciples.” When it’s all over the only question God will ask, “Did you do my will?”

Question: Are you living to fulfill God’s purpose by carrying out the one assignment He gave us, go make disciples?

Scriptures: 2 Timothy 1:9; John 15; Matthew 12:50, 28:18-20

RITA’S THOUGHTS

DON’T SAY YOU CAN’T DO IT!

Making Disciples requires that God’s Church work together as a team. The evangelist, the teacher, the pastor, the helper and others all have their part to play. Don’t say you can’t fulfill God’s purpose because you have no talent. God placed each one of us on earth with the talents we need to do what He asked us to do. We must ask Him to show us what our specific purpose is and reveal to us the talents we have that will fulfill that purpose. By using our talents to fulfill God’s purpose we bring glory to Him and receive eternal rewards.

If we don’t use our talents for God’s glory, we will have no lasting rewards. What will your rewards be when life is over?

Scriptures: Romans 12, & 1 Corinthians 12

Rita's Story

Rita was married to Bud McDonald for 33 years. Bud McDonald (1942-2003) was called to ministry in Latin America in 1973.

Bud and Rita were married in 1970 in Baytown, Texas just a few years before being called to ministry. Their ministry gradually spread from Belize to Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador then finally to Mexico. Through their ministry, first starting with the Burton McDonald Evangelistic Association, then changing over to The Sower, Inc. in 1983, Bud and Rita started over 140 churches throughout Central America and Mexico.

Bud’s influence extended from Argentina to Cuba through Central America into parts of Texas and the Southern U.S. through evangelistic crusades, meetings, radio and television.

Rita McDonald began serving in ministry alongside her husband Bud soon after their marriage. She used her secretarial skills in editing and typing a weekly Christian newspaper, and in helping Bud compile a Bible correspondence school. She led worship in new churches they started, and taught weekly children’s Sunday school classes as well as vacation Bible schools. After moving back to the US in the 80’s she co-pastored several churches with her husband, led a Bible study at a local Christian Television station and continued to be active in the work in Latin America.

She home-schooled all four of their children through high school.

In response to God’s leading she married Henry Pulsifer in November 2010, and is his partner as he fulfills the ministry God has given him. Their main focus is providing training to native leaders outside the U.S. This includes working with Bud's son Scott to provide training for the leaders in the work he established.
