Hello my brother; hello my sister, my name is Dean Davis, and this is a word of
encouragement for village church planters.
As you have been learning through training and experience, the four Seed
Sower Tools are a great help to church planters as they work to make disciples
of Jesus Christ.
These tools provide ready answers when the devil tempts us to be passive and
not share the Gospel or make disciples. If the devil tempts us by asking, “Who
do you think you are to go around telling people about Jesus?” we have an
answer from the first tool: “I am a new creation in Christ. Jesus has named me
his ambassador to the world.” If the devil tempts us by saying “You don’t
even know who to talk to about Jesus,” we say. “Be silent devil, I have a
relationship map, I know exactly who I can talk to about King Jesus.” If the
devil tempts us by asking, “Who do you think you are, you can’t speak, you
don’t know what to say, you will just confuse people if you try to talk about
Jesus.” we have a powerful answer, “I have a clear, truthful, powerful 15
second testimony of how Jesus changed my life. And I have the Three Circles
Gospel Presentation that tells how Jesus defeated you by shedding his blood
and rising from the dead. I will use my four Seed Sowing Tools to share the
Good News and you will be silent.”
If the devil tempts us by saying, “Those people you are going to talk to won’t
change their lives, you are just wasting your time,” we say, “Jesus will restore
them to God and we will teach them to obey the seven basic commands of
Christ. I have a plan to walk with them and help them grow strong as disciples
of Christ and you will not stop me. I am a co-laborer with Christ. Be gone,
Satan.”
This is the walk of faith that the Four Seed Sower Tools facilitate. And you
have these tools in your hands.
The fourth tool is the Action plan. If you make a good action plan and then do
what it says, you will multiply fruit in God’s Kingdom. If you define when you
will pray for people on your relationship map and when you will share the
Gospel with them, you will bear fruit. If you use your Action Plan to define
whom you will teach the Seed Sower Tools and whom you will teach the 7 Basic
Commands of Christ, and if you define when you will teach them, you will
multiply your fruitfulness.
If you train others to spread the Good News, they too will bear fruit. We call
this multiplication. When you teach others to use the four Seed Sower Tools
and when you teach others to obey the seven basic commands of Christ, you
will multiply disciples.
The Four Seed Sower Tools are describe in the Train and Multiply booklet
called “Sow the Good Seed.” If you would like to see this booklet, but don’t
know where to find it, ask the person who shared this message with you to
show you the booklet. It is a part of Train and Multiply for Village Church
Planters, Term 1.
God is giving you tools so you can work powerfully to advance his Kingdom.
Let’s give him thanks for his wonderful gift!
This has been a word of encouragement for Village Church Planters.
