A Man's Life is Better: Modeling Ministry After Jesus 0:02 Welcome to Men's Breakfast with John Mark Keaton. Join us as John Mark shares his insights with other men in his ministry rooted in the timeless truths of the gospel. Today's message will encourage you to0:14 inspire, inform, and invest in the lives of others. This is Men's Breakfast with your host, John Mark Caton.0:23 Man, as we kick this, this series off the second way, last week we started a brand new series, entitled A Man's Life is Better. And last week we looked at this idea that a man's life is0:35 always better, when our relationships are right. And we talked about the importance of relationships, from beginning to end that God created us for relationships, to be in relationships. We looked at the idea that, you0:46 know, when God created Adam and Eve, he ultimately looked at Adam for the first time and said, it's not good for him to be alone. And, we even talked about this last week. Imagine what Adam would have done to the garden0:58 had Eve not showed up. How much he'd have messed it up, torn it up, and, so God said, listen, we need to be in relationships. So certainly, marriage relationships is 1, but we also talk more importantly about other men.1:09 Being around other dudes and having friendships that we can walk with and friends that we can walk with and grow with. And so today, I want to talk to us, not only first of all, last week, a man's life is better when our1:21 relationships are right, but today I want to talk to us about this idea. A man's life is always better when we model our ministry after Jesus, when we model our ministry after Jesus. Now,1:32 let's go ahead and relieve all of us in the room of, of the idea none of us are Jesus. Raise your hand if you know you're not Jesus. Alright, good. I just want to make sure we're all clear on that, alright?1:44 So you're not going to do any of these perfectly, but as we think about it, part of why we want to model our ministry after Jesus is because he's the best model there ever was. Certainly probably for us, if we were to1:55 say who's close behind him, we'd say maybe the apostle Paul, right? When you look at where the apostle Paul was prior to Acts chapter 9 and then where he was after Acts chapter 9, man Paul2:07 made an effort. But, Paul was also honest, there is this war that wages in my heart. Those things I don't want to do, I still find myself doing. Those things that I want to do, often times I don't2:19 do, but at the same time, he was always moving forward in such a way that he could eventually say, hey, follow me as I follow Christ, and so I want you to know as2:30 a pastor of a church, as a member of the kingdom of God, I want to invite you as men to understand your life will2:42 be better when your relationships are right, and you understand you are in the ministry. I want you to know the only people in the room in this, that are in the ministry are not just me or Justin or2:54 Justin or some of the other staff members, every guy in this room has a ministry. He's got a purpose for you. If you were here Sunday when I talked about the importance of church and why you need to3:06 be in church, number 7 was what? Be a contributor, not just a consumer. We always wanna understand that listen, as men, I've got something to bring3:18 to the table. I've got something that this church needs. I've got something that other people in this church need. And a lot of it, it's just action. But I want you to know, we all have a place to3:29 serve. I referenced this, this set of verses last week, but let me just read them to you. If you think about the church, you wonder where you fit in, here it is. Go to first Corinthians chapter 12 verse 14, we'll put it3:41 up on your screen. Talking about the church as the body of Christ. It says, even so, the body of Christ or the body or the church is not made up of 1 part but3:53 many. Now if the foot should say because I am not a hand I don't belong to the body, it would not be for that reason to stop being part of the body. And if the ear were to say,4:05 were to say because I'm not an eye, I do not belong to the body. It would not be for that reason. It would be part of the body. It doesn't matter where you are or what you serve, you just continue to read on. Is,4:16 it says, if you go down to verse 20, as it is, there are many parts, but 1 body. Every guy in this room is built a little different. Every guy in this room has a different4:28 set of gifts and skills and talents and abilities. Not everybody's the apostle Paul, and as a fact as a matter of fact, you look in the new testament, everybody in the new testament wasn't the apostle Paul.4:40 Some people were quiet in the background, serving, moving, some people were just helping churches get started, some people were contributing by funding the mission and the ministry of Paul and other churches. And so4:51 regardless of what you think your talent is, I want you to know, the kingdom of God needs men to step up. More importantly, you need to step up because your life will be5:02 better when you ultimately see Jesus as your model of ministry. What did I just say in first Corinthians chapter 11 verse 1? Paul says, follow my example as I5:14 follow the example of Christ. And so today, what I want to do is I want to give you 7 words. Everybody say 7. 7. I'm going to give you 7 words and I hopefully will be able to get through all 75:26 and all of these words will end with an I o n. Alright? What do you do when you turn a take a word and add I o n to it? Typically, you're taking a verb, which is something we do and we're5:38 making it into a noun, really a person, place or thing. And so all of these words will end with an I O N. Because ultimately, if we will put effort and energy and activity5:50 into each and every 1 of these words, we will become what God wants us to be. And so as we think about this, the ION, I just said, man what could we use as an acrostic for6:02 ION? And here's what I came up with. We wanna be inward inwardly renewed, obedient to his word, and nurtured by Christ's love. And6:14 so those are the 3 things we want, inwardly renewed, I wanna be obedient to God's word, and I wanna be nurtured by his love. And so I'm just gonna give you 7 verses, if you think,6:26 well what should my ministry look like, what should my life look like, I'm gonna give you 7 words. Here's the first 1, identification. Identification. Write that word down, type it into your notes6:37 section, identification. That means we have to know who we are. We absolutely have to know who we are. Well, if Jesus is our example,6:49 Jesus knew who he was. Look at John chapter 8 verse 18. He says, I am 1 who testifies for Myself. Alright? Just stop right there. Jesus knew who He was. There are7:01 some people that will say, well Jesus, somewhere along the line realized that He was special. He didn't know He was always God. Let me tell you what, Jesus always knew he was God. He grew in stature in men with men7:13 and God, but we understand this, Jesus knew who he was. He testified to himself, now followed on, my other witness is the father who sent me. So guys, Jesus7:24 knew who he was, you need to know who you are. What is my past? How did I grow up? Did I grow up in church, outside church? Have I been through some addictions, some difficulties, some7:36 hardships? What are the mistakes I've made? And see, those are part of who you are. And none of those things eliminate you from doing what God wants you to do from this point7:48 on. You just have to understand, that is part of who I am. I love the way Paul put it, and he's really talking about you. So that was Jesus, Jesus knew who he was. We8:00 need to know who we are. This is the you part. Here's what Paul says, going back to that first Corinthians chapter 12 verse 4 and 5. He says, there are different kinds of gifts. Guys, everybody in this room has a8:11 different gift. We all have different gifts. He says, the same spirit distributes the gifts. So there's 1 spirit, the spirit of God,8:23 He gives different kinds of gifts to different kinds of people. They all ultimately will build the kind of church that God wants us to have, and the kind of8:35 church that is filled with the kind of men that God wants us to be. And so read on, he says, these are different kinds of service but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working8:47 but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work. So guys, who are you? How many of you are servants at heart, then8:59 serve? How many of you are administrators at heart, Then administrate something. How many of you are teachers at heart? Then go teach something. How many of you are encouragers at heart? Then9:11 go encourage someone. Just understand who you are. Say, this is who I am. There are some of you that you like to be out front. Go be out front. Go lead.9:23 Go find a ministry to lead, be a part of, find a team. Maybe it's the parking team, it's the door team, it's the connections team, it's the worship team, it's the tech team. You like to go lead, go lead. I mean, some of9:35 you like to way, be way back in the background, that's just not me, I I just wanna serve, I I don't wanna be acknowledged, then then go do it. But realize who you are.9:47 Know who you are, and your history and your past is part of what makes you who you are. There are some of you in here that you've been through some stuff that you can9:58 identify with some guys, maybe in this room, but certainly in this church, that I could never connect with, I could never identify with. Why? Because you've been through the same stuff. Man, if you hear someone say,10:10 hey man, you all heard so and so struggling with this. If you say, man, I struggled with that, guess what? That's your call to ministry. Because it flows out of who you are. And your life will10:22 matter more when you turn around and take the struggles, the trials, the difficulties that you've been through and you help someone else go through those same trials and difficulties and hardship. And a lot of times,10:34 once you've been through them, you can be more direct about listen, here's how we get through this. Why? Because it's part of who you are. This is how I10:46 got through it. So a man's life is better, listen, when when I know who I am, I have the identification. Here's the second word, just write this down. You need some motivation. How many of you need some motivation? I10:57 mean, hopefully, when the cowboys step on the practice field this week, they got a little motivation. Right? That that the defense needs to be a little better.11:09 The running game needs to be a little better. The passing game needs to be a little better. Our kicker, just keep doing what you're doing. God, is that crazy or what? But man, we11:21 all need some motivation. I need something that inspires me, that clarifies what I need to do. Man, the the cowboys need to be very clear this week when they practice. Hey, when the other team11:33 hands the ball off to a running back, tackle that dude, right? That's that's clarity, right? Tackle that dude. You know, the offense, hey, when we hand it to a running back, try not to run into the back of your offensive11:44 lineman, let's find a hole, right? There's some motivation there, there's some clarity as to what we do. Notice Jesus had motivation in his life. He said, by myself, in John chapter 5 verse 30, he says,11:56 by myself, I can't do anything. He says, I judge only as I hear, and in my judgment, it's always just. He says, for I12:08 seek not to please myself, but him who sent me. What was Jesus's motivation? Not to please himself, but to please his father. What's12:20 your motivation? Not to just please yourself, but to please your father. That's clear motivation. I I love it. Turn it around. Let's see what Paul says. This is about you. Jesus had clear motivation.12:32 Now this is about you. Paul says, on the contrary, we speak as those approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel. We are not trying to please people, but12:43 God who test our hearts. So notice what Paul did. He says, follow me as I follow Christ. Paul understood that Jesus was not trying to please people. He12:55 was trying to please God. Paul then in response says, I'm not trying to please me. I'm not trying to please people. I'm trying to please God. Guys,13:07 that's got to be our motivation. That as we journey forward in this land, in this world, in this community, that we've got to be a men that are set apart with the motivation,13:19 and the motivation can't just be my pleasure. It can't just be my money. It can't just be all about me. It's gotta be a clear understanding that this13:31 life is not about me. It is about him serving him. It is not about pleasing culture. It's not about pleasing people. It is about pleasing13:43 God. And when I do that, that's the motivation I need. Why do I serve another day? Or why do I give something? Or why do I love someone? Why do I encourage someone else? It's because I'm not looking to please me. I'm13:55 looking to please God. And so I want ultimately, I want an identification, who I am. I want motivate motivation. Why am I here? It's to serve and to please God. Here's number 3.14:07 I need some dedication. Man, I I need some dedication in my life. And what do I wanna be dedicated to? The truth of God's word. I14:19 wanna do everything I can to keep myself pure. Why do I wanna be dedicated to God's word? Because let me tell you what, Satan's dedicated to the lie. How many of you know that? Satan's happy to14:30 deceive our kids and deceive our wives and deceive our families and even deceive us. We've gotta be dedicated to the truth of God's word, but there's something else we need to be dedicated to, guys. It's purity.14:43 That we would walk in a way that would honor God and and and honor those we are in relationship with and honor those we love. So is there something in your life that is14:55 impure, that needs to be clean, that you need to dedicate yourself to be an instrument of God? Where do we see this? Notice what Jesus says in John chapter 14 verse 6. He's dedicated. He says, I am the way, the15:06 truth, and the life. No 1 comes to the father, but through me. That's his dedication. That's his ultimate purpose. He says, I am the way to get to the father. I am the15:18 truth about what life really is and I am the life. There is no life apart from me. Man, that's absolutely what he what he was dedicated to. Now15:30 notice this, go to Paul, talking about us. He says in a large house, there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay. Some are for special purposes15:42 and some are for common use. Now let's just stop right there. He's saying, listen, a church is like a large house. The kingdom of God is like a large house. There are a lot of instruments, a lot of things,15:54 some for special purposes, some for common use. Some are things that we, only bring out at at the Christmas dinner or the Thanksgiving dinner. There are other things that we bring out, when when the kids16:06 bring their friends over. Right? That's those things that if it breaks, you'll be okay. It won't break the bank. But here's what we also know. In a church, it's just like that. But notice, continue to read on. He says16:18 those who cleanse themselves from the latter will be instruments for special purposes made holy. A commitment to purity. Made holy, notice16:29 this, useful to the master and prepared to do any good work. Guys, part of what truly prepares us16:41 to be used by God is when we purify ourselves. Yeah. What is it in your life, what is it in my life, that if all of a sudden someone walked in here16:53 and said, hey, did you know that Bill does this when no one's looking? Or did you know that Troy is struggling with this? And if17:05 that would make you sad and fearful at work, can I just encourage you with this? Man, cleanse yourself of it. Man, just spend some time with God asking for17:17 forgiveness. Have some dedication to say, God, you know what? I've overlooked this in my life for a long, long time, but I truly want to be used for you in a special way, in a powerful way. And17:29 so God, let's let's first of all start with just me and you. God, I know this is a sin. God, I know it's a sin even though others don't even know I'd do it. But17:40 God, I wanna make a commitment right now that I'm gonna walk away from this sin. I'm gonna ask your forgiveness, and I'm gonna invite you, God, to cleanse me of this. And then ask yourself the question.17:52 You say, listen, I have been struggling with this sin for a long, long time. Then maybe there's a follow-up question. God, I truly wanna be used by you for your kingdom, but I know I need to be a holy vessel, not a18:04 perfect vessel. I know I need to be a holy vessel. And God, I've been battling this by myself for a long, long time. And God, I can't seem to beat18:16 it by myself. So then, here's your second question. God, what man Remember last week is relationships, and I started that, the first week with relationships for a18:28 reason. We need to have relationship that you can say, what man can I talk to? Or what group of men can I surround myself with that will help help18:40 me get through this sin, get beyond this struggle, get past this problem? And when you do that, I believe God18:51 is gonna bring people around you. And let me tell you what, that's why we have Celebrate Recovery, that's why we have all kinds of ministries, that's why on Wednesday night, all through these, all through this place up19:02 here, we have purity rooms, we have devotions, we have Bible studies. We've got marriage studies. We've got a lot of things. Why? Because we know there are lots of problems,19:15 and we don't just put those discipleship groups on so you can come in and we and say, all right, I took this class. No, because here's what I know. If your marriage is better,19:27 God can use you more. If you get over an addiction, God can use you more. If you get over a certain battle, God can use you more. And so I want to encourage you with that word dedication.19:39 Man, what do you need to dedicate yourself? The truth of God's word and purity in your walk, not perfection. Y'all, I can tell you after all these years, you just look at me and you know, that dude is not perfect. I19:51 hope that goes through your mind all the time. Right? But I'm always battling. I'm always saying, you know what? 5 years ago, I didn't see this as a sin. Why didn't I see it as a sin 5 years ago? Because I was20:03 dealing with a different sin. How many of you know? Right? About the time you beat 1, then all of a sudden you begin to get excited about yourself. You pat yourself on the back a little bit and God says, now about this.20:14 And you're like, dad gummit, right? When does it ever end? It doesn't. That's where dedication comes in, that I want to be dedicated to deal with some of the things that hold20:26 me back from being used by God to my fullest attention. Alright, here's the next word, number 4. I need some concentration. I know it's early in the morning, but let's go ahead and think about concentration. How20:38 many of you, were 4 students in school? It's okay if there's 1 in here. There was 1, good. There's 1 in the back. Hey, next time we have a test, I want to sit next to him. Right.20:50 I had a 4 in Chidi, right. I knew how to strategically seat myself by the smartest people in the room. Am I the only guy that did that? I mean, that was strategy. See, that was my21:02 offensive play. Early on in every class, I just wanted to find out who did I need to sit by come test day, and I would just strategically begin to work myself there, right? I mean,21:14 you also wanna do the same thing when you think about concentration and focus on what is important. Man, look around you. Who are some people that you are looking at and you're like,21:26 they are really doing their faith well? Start sitting next to them. Start finding yourself next to them. Put yourself in a place where they21:37 can influence your spiritual test scores. Does that make sense? That they can get you in the right frame of mind, in the right heart, in the right spirit, and in the right way. When we think about concentration21:49 and focusing on what what is important, look at John chapter 8 verse 14. It says, Jesus answered, said, even if I testify on my own behalf, my testimony is valid for I know22:01 where I came from and I know where I'm going. That's concentration. He says, I know where I came from and I know where I'm going. Guys, that's going back to what we said earlier. You've got22:13 to know where you came from and where you're going. Man, this is who I was, but this is not who God wants me to be. That I want some concentration. I want to22:25 focus on becoming the man of God that God truly wants me to be. So the question is, what is holding you back? Are you surrounding yourself22:37 with the wrong people? Are you going back to a graveyard sin that Satan is constantly drawing you back to and Jesus is trying to draw you away from? Is there22:49 some sort of struggle that when you get down, discouraged, depressed, isolated, and alone, that you are all of a sudden, you lose concentration on the most important thing, and you get23:01 distracted by the devil to go back to a secret sin, a hidden sin, a sin that you know needs to go away. Look at this, what Jesus said in Luke chapter 2 verse 49. He says,23:13 why were you searching for me? If you were here Sunday and I talked about the importance of church, this is when his parents lost Jesus at church. He came back, so why were you searching for me? Didn't you know I had to23:24 be in my father's house? Guys, if you were gonna stay on task and on ministry, if you're gonna keep your concentration on Christ, you've23:36 got to spend a lot of time in God's house. You've got to be in God's place. I love this. Jesus knew that he had to be in his father's23:48 house. Well, guys, if Jesus had to be in God's house, how much more do we need to be in God's house? Here here's what I do24:00 know, at least right now probably in every 6 in all my years, 29 and a half years. Pastor here, been doing a 6 AM bible study.24:12 We've never had a dude arrested in this bible study. Why? Because you're typically doing the right thing. Now some of y'all get arrested right after you leave.24:24 Alright. Right? Yep. The cops are by your car right now, but the point is, we've never had anybody arrested in the service. Why? Because we're surrounding24:35 ourselves with the right people, concentrating on the right things, doing the right things. Alright? When do we get in trouble? It's when we're out there. When we lose focus, lose concentration, we stop surrounding24:47 ourselves with the right people. I love what Jesus said in John chapter 17 verse 4. He says, I have brought you glory on earth by finishing the work that God gave me to do.25:00 Guys, God still has work for you to do. You say, pastor, how do you know that? Everybody do this. Just check your pulse. It's still25:11 beeped, and your task isn't over. Your job isn't done. You haven't fully fulfilled all the ministry God is calling25:23 you to. I love what Paul said in Philippians chapter 3 verse 13. He says, brothers, I do not consider myself having take hold of it taken hold of it yet, but 1 thing25:35 I do, forgetting what is behind, reaching forward to what is ahead. Guys, I don't know what is behind in your life.25:47 I don't know what past you're trying to walk away from or get away from, but I will tell you this, if you will journey forward with Christ, that you can have a concentration that will ultimately lead to victory.26:00 And, guys, I pray that you walk out of here going, man, I look back on my life and here's what I know. I didn't land it as perfectly as I wish I could have, but from26:12 this point on, I'm gonna do the very best I can. Here's word number 5, it's words you love, I love, we talked about a few minutes ago and we were raised, education.26:24 Education, I can never stop growing. I can never stop growing in my faith. I can never stop learning God's word. I can never stop memorizing God's26:35 word. I can never stop getting educated and getting better. I love this, look at Luke chapter 2 verse 52, it says, Then Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man. If Jesus26:47 needed to grow in wisdom and stature, guess what? We need to grow in wisdom and stature. Don't ever say you've arrived. Don't ever think you've arrived. I don't know how long you've been in church. Some of you been in26:58 church a couple of years. Some of you have been in church a couple of decades. Everybody still has some place to grow. If Jesus said, listen, I still need to grow in wisdom and in27:09 stature with God and man, guess what? We still need to grow in wisdom and stature with God and man. You say pastor, how do I grow? I talk about this all the time. I drive it all the time.27:21 That here, you need to understand, god's word is the way we grow. You wanna constantly read god's word, sit under the teaching of god's word, know god's word, and live out god's word. Look at27:33 second Timothy chapter 3 verse 16, all scripture is God breathed and is useful for what? For teaching, for growing, for educating, for rebuking, for correcting, and training in righteousness. Why?27:46 So that the man of God, everybody say that's me. That's me. So that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. Man, what do you still need to learn? What do you27:58 still need to grow in? What do you still need to, educate yourself? Man, when you see something on social media, or you hear something in the office, that man someone's saying something and you're like, man, I28:10 don't think that jives with what God's word says. And instead of you being able to respond in a gracious manner with with love and kindness and with wisdom, you have to stay28:22 quiet because you don't know the answer. And the only answer to that is I need to grow. Man, so what do you need to get better at? What knowledge do you need to put into your28:33 head? And it never stops. If Jesus constantly had to grow in wisdom and stature with God and man, so do we. I will tell you this, that your pastor,28:46 I don't feel like I know enough, because every day someone will come into my office or someone will call me or someone will text me and they'll say, hey, my daughter just came in and said this to me.28:58 How do I respond? I just want you to know. There are a lot of times I'm going, that is a great question that I don't know the answer to. Why? Because my kids never29:10 said that to me. I've never dealt with that before, and so what do I do? I need to go learn, I need to educate, I need to drive myself to constantly study, why? Because I want to29:21 be that verse 17. I want to be the man of God that is equipped for every good work. Here's word number 6. You ready? I29:33 want to live with expectation. I want to live with expectation. I want to expect that God will use me regardless of my29:45 past. Guys, do you have expectation? Do you expect that God is going to use you? Regardless of your29:56 past? There's there's some guys in this room that, it scares you to death, but you're a good leader and you're a good communicator30:08 and you just step up and say, I'm willing to start a life group for people my age. I'm willing to lead out for others. And let me tell you, it's going to be hard, but God will30:20 use you. Anytime you offer yourself up for God to use you, you also want to expect that God will use you regardless of your past. Look at John chapter 11 verse 41 and 42. It30:32 says that so they took away the stone and then Jesus looked up and said, Father, I thank you, that you have heard me. I knew that you always hear me, or I know that you always hear me, but I said30:44 this for the benefit of the people standing here, that they may believe that you sent me. I love this. John chapter 11, he is about to raise Lazarus. He says, listen, God,30:56 I said this not for me, I said it for somebody else. Let me ask you a question. Are you using your words for the faith to impact others around you? Not for your own31:08 benefit, but for their benefit so that they would know and love God and know and believe in God. See, that's the reality. We have to have an expectation that when you're in the31:19 office and a conversation is happening, if you turn around and speak out God's word, that God is going to use you. And let me tell you what, let me just relieve you of this, if you start speaking31:31 out with the expectation God is gonna use you, you're going to say some stupid stuff. How many of you know that? Have you looked at me? Have you just listened to me preach? I'm gonna say31:43 some stupid stuff. It just comes out stupidly. I mean, that's just the way to, but I will promise you, if you do it in faith, God will use you. Guys, I pray that you hit the doors today31:55 with an expectation that God is going to use me somewhere, somehow, either at the office or in my home or at the gym or somewhere. That God's going to use me in a32:07 powerful and a real way. Look at John chapter 15 verse 15, here's why I believe it. Jesus said, I am the vine, you are the branches. Alright, I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in me, and I in32:19 him, he bears much fruit. Full stop. Jesus wants to make sure you leave here today32:31 knowing that God's call on your life is that you would bear fruit, not just a little fruit, but a lot of fruit. And it's time, so let me give you my last word. Not only do I need some32:43 expectation that God's going to use me, I need some determination. Guys, you need some determination. Don't ever give up. There might be be a guy in this room that,32:56 man, you're about ready to throw in the towel. Can I tell you, I I won't stand up here a lot and tell you I exactly know God's will for your life,33:09 but I will tell you this, giving up, that is not God's will for your life? Quitting, regardless of how hard it is, that is not God's will for your33:20 life. God's will for your life, you would suck it up. Be the kind of man that God uses in a powerful and real way. And between now and33:32 the end of your life, if you'll do those 7 things, I believe not only will you see blessings beyond measure and more blessings than you can even imagine33:44 right now, but so will your family, so will this church, so will this community, and so will this country. Let's be the kind of men33:57 that God uses.34:00 Thank you for tuning in to Men's Breakfast with John Mark Cayton.
