World Prayr founded and built upon the principle that we are all full-time ministers and servants of God. This belief led to the formation of a mission team, who serve not only those they encounter daily but beyond. They reach out to those who need to know that a radical love has come to unchain them and set them free to dance. By, doing this the World Prayr ohana is working to help others learn how to dive deeper into the gospel of grace. Serving both those in their perspective countries and connecting globally. They do this by using the tools and methods' God has made available to them. Doing this with the spirit that there is no one who has the greater privilege or ability. Working hard to remember and live the truth Paul expressed in 1 Corinthians 12:15-26. This is why they refer to themselves as shoe shiners. It is not about them being important, but pointing to the one who is (Philippians 2:9-11). …show more content…
Rather, it is a team of servants of the most High God, who have chosen to come together. To offer up their gifts, talents, and worship. They do not believe they are great, but that greatness is found in the one they offer these things up to. They work to help others discover that the final, ultimate and primary King has come (Mark 1:15). Now, the King calls all those that are His. So, they may find life by sacrificing whatever they count as gain (Philippians 3:7). Including having this life work to be menders, part of His kingdom team (Malachi 4:1-3; Ephesians 2:10). They believe the best way to do this is by being willing to shine the shoes of others (Philippians 2:4). They accept that their identities are not formed by what they do or what others think. Or, if they can claim some creed, so God will smile upon them. Instead, they know they are the bride of

As the author declares it, they are the ones who keep watch over the souls of the believers in the faith community, exercise leadership in light of the final Day and will give an account to the Lord for their shepherding. Also, they will be unprofitable, if they do not do it with the joy of the Lord.

Many people believe that today’s Christians are too sheltered and oblivious to the real world around them. When asked, many outsiders compared today’s Christians to “The Titanic - a ship about to sink, but unaware of its fate” or “a hobby that diverts people’s attention” (Kinnaman 120). It is important Christians to not just stay secluded in one group (church group), but to be talking to others (outsiders) so we are aware of the problems and thing that are going on in the world around us. As Christians we are called to be disciples of Jesus by reaching out to those in need, praying for those around us, and calling people to become the church. In “Unchristian” David Kinnaman outlines three main things we as Christians should include in our lives: accepting responsibility, not being fearful, helping the desperate, being prepared, and keeping a balance.
To do this people need to keep in mind the Ten Commandments as well as these eight beatitudes. Righteous people are the people who are good, keep in mind their virtues, justifiable, law-abiding, honest, noble, helpful, and faithful.

... rewards to those who have faith and believe in Him. We should hold true to our faith in God and believe that he will come through for us even in difficult times. If we stand strong through the trials and tests that God chooses to lay upon us, He will exalt us. As well, the example of Moses is conformant to our world today because he shows that God does not condemn those who have sinned against Him. Instead, God chooses to forgive us and look beyond our mistakes. This shows that God still has respect and compassion for those who have made mistakes. Even if we have done wrongdoing, we can still be chosen to be in the Kingdom of God. Finally, the story of David explains that we can all be heroes in the eyes of God even if we are just ordinary people. As long as we believe in ourselves and have trust in God, we can still be successful. Status or strength does not matter in the point of view of God; it is compassion and love that God looks for in each of us. We can lead normal lives but yet still be a king or a queen in the eyes of God. The Hebrew Scriptures will always have a lesson for us, no matter how much our world changes and these lessons are eternally applicable to our lives.
Philippians 2 gives us guidance on how to imitate Christs love through, humility, stewardship and giving. The verse states;
Our world needs people who love God tremendously and who want to change it for the better. To become a World-Changer for Christ one needs to display several qualities that God wants them to use on his or her mission for Him. An individual needs to be brave, pure, and committed to God’s goals.

Throughout this semester, I have learned what the glory of God can do for the nations of the world through the book God’s Heart for the Nations. There are many countries in the world where the people are far less fortunate than many of us are in the United States or a few other countries. So I pray for these nations and ask God to help these people in their time of need. Many of these practices include praying before I go to bed, researching their culture, or sending my condolences and support to people around the world.
