John 21:15 (KJV) "So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs."After Larry submitted himself to discipleship, he became accountable to his discipler, who prayerfully monitored his spiritual progress.
The first day his discipler visited him at his house, he noticed that Larry’s room was decorated with pictures of indecently dressed female pop stars. He also observed that most of Larry’s music collection was not spiritually edifying. His discipler took the time to explain that the environment Larry created around himself was very important and that the pictures on his wall were not appropriate for a Spirit-filled child of God. Even though some of those autographed pictures had cost Larry a lot of money to acquire, he willingly removed and destroyed them. He also got rid of all the music that was not spiritually edifying.
His discipler spent time in his house that day. They ate together, studied the Word of God, and prayed. Larry had many questions and incorrect assumptions, but his discipler patiently answered his questions and corrected his misunderstandings.
Larry and his discipler continued to meet regularly, talk on the phone, and pray together. Over time, Larry noticed that his interaction with his discipler made him much stronger spiritually. Eventually, Larry also became a soul-winner and discipler.
Discipleship is the means by which more mature believers feed the Lord’s lambs (newborn believers). Those who truly love the Lord will be involved in this ministry. Many have fallen away from the faith, not because they did not truly believe, but because no one took the time to disciple them.
Go into today remembering that if you truly love the Lord, you will take care of His lambs by being involved in the ministry of discipleship.
— Abraham Damilola Arigi
