DMM: Feeling Dazed Assessment



DMM Assessment 


Awash in the vast ocean of mission field efforts, the movement mindset helps one to become more laser focused on that which God desires for His glory among the ethne.

When it comes to female missionaries, to this end, one can oft times choose to forget to remember that it is vital to the Father's heart that women are engaged in that which could help with the launch of cascading movements to Christ. 

David Watson, in his CPM blog writes...
"…Mothers establish the environment, and often the content, for worldview transmission. ..the war on terror is really a spiritual battle that can only be won by replacing the Worldview of Islam with a Biblical Worldview. The only way we are going to see terrorism end is by building relationships with Muslim families in such a way that we can share the Gospel. As the Gospel is heard and the Spirit of Christ moves, these families are changed from the inside out by their faith in Christ and the transforming power of the Holy Spirit. Mothers will begin to teach their children by action and word to obey the Bible….This spiritual war will be won by Spirit-led Christians who love their neighbors as themselves, share the Gospel, make disciples, and teach them to obey—family by family, mother by mother.”

Lord, what specific, measureable, and time bound steps are you asking of my heart individually? With teammates: expats and local partners?

4. Becoming Like Jesus
In what ways is the Father inviting you to increase in your delight of times with Him? Describe what your times look like and what that would mean to grow for this season? For instance, I just am doing an assessment of common kryptonite areas where I have tendency to be vulnerable to giving some ground over to Satan’s lies: fear of my parents dying, fear of my becoming ill and dying…this was a common theme I kept embracing in the past six months and was able to recognize along the way but really had allowed these thoughts for a period to cause me to go “weak kneed rather than face down”.
Recognize where I am doubting God’s goodness
Repent of where I am doubting or have doubted God’s goodness
Renounce affects of where I doubted God’s goodness
Reclaim ground with God’s truth to replace the lies where I doubted God’s goodness
Just for example, in how you might tease out this season of growth
