The Eternal Kingdom: 2018 A YEAR FOR THE ETERNAL KINGDOM

THOUGHTS ON THE ETERNAL KINGDOM

2018 A YEAR FOR THE ETERNAL KINGDOM!!

As 2018 began we were in an area of The World closed to the open proclamation of the good news about Jesus. We were praying for God’s Kingdom to come on Earth as it is in Heaven. God spoke to my heart that 2018 was a year that people needed to focus on The Eternal Kingdom. They needed to make the establishing of God’s Kingdom in the hearts of all mankind their number one priority.

It is easy to get caught up in the busyness of life. Things like finances, health issues, retirement, and personal needs can keep us from focusing on The Kingdom. God’s promise to us is that if we make His Kingdom our number one priority He will take care of all these other things. We know a couple who are retirement age. They have made God’s Kingdom their number one priority most of their adult life. They lived for years with no regular income trusting God to meet each need as they sought to fulfill His purpose for their lives. Now that they are in their retirement years they have more than they need even though they never worried about retirement.

God is faithful. He is calling every follower of Jesus to make living for The Kingdom their number one priority. This means more than just going to church meetings or serving in some church organization. It means living each day seeking to hear God’s voice and doing what He wants us to do so people will become part of The Eternal Kingdom through a commitment to follow Jesus with all their heart. If we will do this He will meet all the other needs which distract from living for The Kingdom.

Question: Is living for The Eternal Kingdom your number one priority in 2018?

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.
