Vision Night Spring 2024 - Making an Impact

1. Live for what will last forever.

What’s going to matter 100 years from now?

Whether or not you placed your trust in Jesus and obeyed him.

The souls of those you influenced towards faith in Jesus.

Matthew 6:19–21 ESV

“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

This is what we want to do together at Challenge, use our lives for what will last forever.

2. Prioritize the lost like Jesus does.

Peoples greatest need in the world is to be saved.

Illustration: If someone were drowning in the water, what do you do? You throw them something that will float. Or you pull them out if you can. You don’t start commenting to them about how their clothes don’t match.

Their greatest need is to be saved. It is the same spiritually.

1 Timothy 1:15 ESV

The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost.

When I was a student at SDSU my mentor and I memorized this verse together: Luke 15:7

Luke 15:7 ESV

Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.

3. Multiply your life.

Most people have settled for such a small impact in life.

School

Job

Married

House

Have a kid or two

Comfertably retire

Die peacefully

Multiply! Don’t settle for anything less than multiplying your life so that your impact will continue on generation after generation until Jesus returns.

This is why children are a blessing. They aren’t pets to bring you comfort. They are arrows to be launched out as ambassedors for Christ, who will multiply Disciples who obey Jesus.

You can be a spiritual Father or Mother before you have biological children though. Through helping lead people to Christ.

Mark 4:20 ESV

But those that were sown on the good soil are the ones who hear the word and accept it and bear fruit, thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold.”
