Titus chapter 3 verse 14 and let our people learn to devote themselves to good works so as to help cases of urgent need and not be unfruitful.

This is the final exhortation in the book of Titus.

Paul saying to this church leader,

help people to devote themselves to doing good works

and then he uses this phrase so as to help

cases of urgent need and let that soak in urgent need and think about your life. Where is there urgent need around you in your life, your family,

and your church and your community and the city around you

just kind of broaden it where's their urgent need in the world and God and his

word is calling us to open our eyes to urgent need.

And He's telling us to devote ourselves to good works in order to help in cases of urgent need.

So I certainly see on a global scale, so obviously I don't know what's going on in your

specific life and your specific community.

And on a global scale when I see places where there's no gospel in the world.

And that's urgent need.

There's people right now that are... in the

gospel in the world. That's urgent need. There's people right now that are

dying and going to an eternity separated from God who never even heard about the gospel like that's urgent need

People with who don't have the gospel people who don't have water like clean water that's urgent need I was just seeing

statistics about epidemics in different country due to lack of clean water that's

urgent need I think about places where there's no food where

starvation is a reality. People don't just say kind of casually, oh I'm starving
