Disciple's Declaration

[Doug Morrell]

Are you passionately, deliberately and radically committed to Jesus?

 

Disciple's Declaration

 

I am a part of the body committed to doing “whatever it takes.”

I have Holy Spirit power. The die has been cast. I’ve stepped over the line.

I am out of the comfort zone. The decision has been made. I’m a disciple of Jesus. I won’t look back, let up, slow down, or back away. My past is redeemed, my present makes sense, and my future is secure. I am finished and done with low living, sight walking, small planning, smooth knees, colorless dreams, tame vision, mundane talking, chincy giving, and dwarfed goals.

I no longer need preeminence, prosperity, position, promotions, or popularity. I don’t have to be right, first, tops, recognized, praised, regarded, or rewarded. I now live by presence, learn by faith, love by patience, lift by prayer, and labor by power.

My face is set, my gait is fast, my goal is heaven, my road is narrow, my way is rough, my companions few, my Guide reliable, and my mission clear. I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured, lured away, turned back, deluded, or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice, hesitate in the presence of adversity, negotiate at the table of the enemy, ponder at the pool of popularity, or meander in the maze of mediocrity.

I won’t give up, shut up, let up, or burn up till I’ve preached up, prayed up, paid up, stored up and stayed up for the cause of Jesus Christ.

I am a disciple of Jesus.

I must go till He comes, give till I drop, preach till all know, and work till He stops.

And when He comes to get His own, He’ll have no problem recognizing me, because I have dedicated my life to be a part of the body committed to doing “whatever it takes.” -Author unknown

Will you live your life in Christ Deliberately & Radically?

I am touched. TY.

Doug, amazingly written. Had a conversation earlier today about what it means to be a disciple and this states it so well. Is it yours or is it all by an unknown author. Just wondering . . . I'm always looking for things that can be reused!

Yes! Count me in

What an awesome response to  Luke 9: 23-26

Please feel free to use/repost as seems good to you and our Lord. Some attribute this piece to Dr. Bob Moorehead while others suggest that Dr. Moorehead did not write it. It appears most sources cite this piece as anonymous, but it appears it was written by a pastor in Zimbabwe who was martyred for his faith. Our ministry (CoreDiscipleship.com) began using this piece in 2001 in multiple forms (PDF, printed graphics, web posts, letters, etc.) and has always cited as Author Anonymous.
