Some men came, bringing to him a paralyzed man, carried by four of them. Since they could not get him to Jesus because of the crowd, they made an opening in the roof above Jesus by digging through it and then lowered the mat the man was lying on.
Mark 2: 3,4
The idea of seeking partnership with you stems from the powerful paradigm We see in the following scripture: Mark 2: 3,4 : Team up and bring the Not-Yet-Reached to the Lord at all cost!
God’s heartbeat is to establish a witness for his son Jesus Christ in every tribe, tongue and kindred. Every part of the Body of Christ has a specific role to play: this undeniably calls for partnership.
As an evangelistic Mission organization committed to reaching the Not-Yet-Reached peoples and urban poor of Africa, we strongly believe that any successful mission endeavor must stand on three legs:
The GO-ers,
The PRAY-ers,
The GIVE-ers.
We also believe that God automatically calls like-minded children of his into some sort of partnership in bringing about the fulfillment of his promises.
The four men in our referenced scripture had one thing in common: they were the friends of the paralyzed fellow and were all animated by the desire to bring him to the master at all cost.
