Marketplace Ministry - David Bennett
January 13, 2022

*My definition of the Marketplace is anywhere outside the four walls of the church. The streets, the supermarket, even your workplace. *

Marketplace Ministry speaks to the fact that ALL Christians can fulfill their desire to serve God in the Marketplace.

So why it is important to bring your faith into the marketplace?

Matthew 28:16-20 ESV

The Great Commission

16 Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. 17 And when they saw him they worshiped him, but some doubted. 18 And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in[a] the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

Will you say YES to His calling?
Will you say YES to the Great Commission?

The beginning of your ministry: Your workday:

Matthew 4:17
“From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, Repent, for the Kingdom of heaven is at hand.”

Romans 8:1-39
Life in The Holy Spirit:

*A lifestyle of miracles should be normal in the marketplace, your workplace. *

We Are Called To Be Culture Changers:

*A Living Sacrifice *

Romans 12:1-2
“I appeal to you, therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”

The Prophetic:

Act 2:17-18
“And in the last days it shall be, God declares, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh, and you sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your old men shall dream dreams, and your young men shall see visions and your old men shall dream dreams.”

Salvations:

Matthew 28:18-19
“And Jesus came and said to them, All authority has been given to me, Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.”

Healing and Miracles
Mark 16:18

“They will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”

God made us who we are so we could make known who he is!

Galatians 2:20
“I have been crucified. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.”

He is worthy of it all!
Revelation 5:12
’He is Worthy of it all! Worthy is the lamb who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing!”
