1 CORINTHIANS 3:10–15

A call to be a missionary is much like Abraham’s call. It is necessary
to leave home, possessions, relatives, worldly ambitions and to
go to another country to which God has led. But one can never
outgive God. Though Abraham was called to give up much, he was
promised much more. God always promises blessings when we
obey and follow Him.

Hebrews 13:5 says, “Let your conversation be without covetousness;
and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will
never leave thee, nor forsake thee.” Much the same thing was said
to the people of Israel: “Be strong and of a good courage, fear not,
nor be afraid of them: for the Lord thy God, he it is that doth go
with thee: he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee” (Deut. 31:6).

The psalmist said, “Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou
dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed” (Ps. 37:3). God
promised to bless Israel, and He promises to bless us when we trust
and obey. God’s call for us today is that we might be separated unto
Him.

No good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly
(Ps. 84:11).
