Matthew 10:7
When you go, preach this: "The Kingdom of Heaven is near."
Jesus, you gave instructions to your disciples to go and announce "The Kingdom of Heaven is near", you did not say to condemn the people. We can see how gifted you were at announcing this message while also lifting people up out of dispair. Give us that gift, Lord, as your disciple makers. Give us the ability to ask a question in response to those in authority who question us and our message, so that they would also be able to reconsider their stance, turn and follow you, Jesus. Help us, as disciple makers in Turkey, to not stray away or weaken our message of the Kingdom coming so as to acommodate those who might feel uncomfortable with our news. Let us boldly proclaim the truth of Jesus!

Disciplemaking Principle: Understand the Urgency of the Task Jesus tells his disciples that we will not know the hour in which he will return, but that we should always be ready. Disciple Making Movements focus on the urgency of the task at hand - all peoples, nations, tribes and languages hearing the good news of Christ.
ReadPsalm 66:4-7 "Everything on earth will worship you; they will sing your praises, shouting your name in glorious songs. Come and see what our God has done, what awesome miracles he performs for people! He made a dry path through the Red Sea, and his people went across on foot. There we rejoiced in him. For by his great power he rules forever. He watches every movement of the nations; let no rebel rise in defiance."
