Advance the Gospel in the Way that God Leads you
“Jesus came to them and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. Go, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I commanded you. Behold, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.” (Matthew 28:18-20 WEB)
Jesus was not just commissioning the apostles to preach the Gospel. It is obvious because the twelve did not manage to reach all the nations in their lifetime. This commission is for every believer throughout time. The words which Jesus spoke in the passage above are know as “The Great Commission”.
I am so glad that Jesus did not just give a command and leave us scratching our heads on how to fulfill it. He sandwiched the command between two statements of provision.
Firstly, Jesus used all the authority He had to give us authority to preach the Gospel so that people from all nations would be saved.
Then, at the end of the passage, He assured us of His ever-abiding presence with us.
We are not trying to preach the Gospel by our own strength and eloquence. We have Jesus’ authority which allows us to access God’s power for confirming signs and wonders to back up our message. Additionally, Jesus is with us through His Spirit, to empower us to preach, and to teach us what to say or do.
Although every Christian is sent to preach the Gospel, relatively few are called to preach from stage. Most do not. When the words “preach” or “ministry” are used, don’t limit your imagination to some person in a suit preaching from the stage to a huge crowd.
There may be Christians led by the Spirit to start a soup kitchen where they feed the poor and share the love of Christ by their actions.
Other Christians are led to buy gifts and hand them out to the people they know. The gifts may contain a handwritten note, saying things like, “I know you’re going through a tough time, but I am praying that God will surely help and restore you. The Lord Jesus loves you with an everlasting love!”
There are so many ways to minister the Gospel to others. The Holy Spirit knows all the ways, and He matches you with a certain way that fits you. That is why it is pointless to compare yourself with others.
I first learnt about Pastor Joseph Prince and New Creation Church because my friend and business associate handed me the book “Destined to Reign”.
I remember I was sitting on a coach in Las Vegas, USA, on the way to see the Grand Canyon. The book was my good companion during the journey, and I was absolutely mind-blown by Pastor’s sharing of the true Gospel. The chains of legalism and performance-based salvation fell off, and the sweet love of God flooded my heart.
After that vacation, I invited myself to that business associate’s church (NCC), determined to heard more Gospel truths from Pastor Prince in person. You see, this Christian lady’s ministry looked different from a pastor preaching on stage. She handed out books that she bought, and these acts of friendliness and generosity planted seeds of the Gospel in people’s hearts, producing a powerful ripple effect that blessed many.
You are uniquely designed by God. Your calling is also tailor-made for you. No one can do it better because you have a unique set of life experiences, relationships, gifts, and knowledge to reach a niche crowd of the unsaved.
Ask the Holy Spirit to lead you and give you opportunities to share the Gospel in the way that He wants you to.
Even if you are not good with words, and you consider yourself antisocial, if you are good at earning lots of money, then give towards ministries that preach the true Gospel which is the Grace of Christ. This is why God blessed you with wealth and the power to get it. Your giving enables ministries to reach more people with the Gospel and plant more seeds for salvation.
This Facebook page, “Milton Goh Blog and Sermon Notes” is one of the platforms from which I minister the Gospel. I started it in July 2014, when I was on vacation with my ex-girlfriend (who is my current wife), in Gold Coast, Australia. In the cold hotel room, I suddenly felt led to start the page on my laptop, and to sharing my writings with people around the world. Never did I imagine that this page would one day have 42k likes and over 200k people reached with the Gospel twice daily each month.

“Reach more, teach more”. This is my mission. I am not a pastor, but I believe I have been called as a teacher of God’s word, to teach mainly through my writing.
In these last days, in the final hour before our Lord’s return, it’s not about having one sermon every weekend anymore. That is not enough.
That is why I am led to write and share two devotionals a day, and two additional ones for patrons.
We must be fed with God’s word daily to stay on fire, to reach more people with the Gospel and the love of Jesus throughout the week.
I do this writing work full-time, on top of taking care of my 5 year old daughter. Family and relatives who aren’t believers in the Lord yet don’t understand it, but still it needs to be done.
I received a hateful email once, from a Christian woman who insulted me and said that I should get a ‘real job’, one that my daughter can be proud of.
I have asked the Lord at times whether I should go and find a job, and the answer I receive is always a clear no. I even applied for jobs and didn’t get hired. The Lord assures me that He has a different plan for me, that I am different from others.
I’m so thankful for my patrons on Patreon, the supporters on Ko-Fi, my book customers, and the social media clients. Thanks to all of you, I was able to write daily until now and continuing.
Recently I met up with a brother in Christ who said he and his wife respect me for taking the huge risk to go full-time in this, with no salary. I told him frankly that I felt led to do it, and love it, but it can be concerning at times due to the lack of perceived stability. However, the Lord always provides.
Next month, my wife and I will be choosing a 4-room apartment unit in Singapore. Then we will have to start paying the monthly installments when the place is built. It is exciting to finally move towards having our own home.
Thanks for reading what the Lord leads me to write! Keep receiving His fresh word, and reach more people for Christ. Together, we can “Reach more, teach more”!

The Only Resolution You Need for the New Year
When you place the pressure on yourself to get things done, it can bring you under the Law.
“I will not....”, “I must do this”, etc.
New Year resolutions don’t help. Willpower and self-discipline can produce temporary results, but the works of the flesh aren’t lasting and often come with undesirable tradeoffs.
Are you willing to double your income and damage your health in the process just to fulfill a new year resolution by your own strength?
You’ll end up paying the money you’ve earned to the hospital!
Are you trying to lose weight by extreme dieting? You’re depriving your body of important nutrients it needs, and not to mention that terrible rebound when you stop dieting. It’s not a long term solution.
What we need is to repeatedly refocus our spiritual eyes back to Jesus whenever we are tempted to look away from Him.
The prefix “re-“ can have the meaning of “once more; afresh; anew”.
Jesus is the New Year re-Solution we need. Have a problem? Go to Jesus once more. Need wisdom? Receive from Jesus afresh. Feeling fearful or worried about something? Meditate on Jesus’ love anew.
I was just reading one of my favorite psalms 139 and allowing it to fill me with a sense of God’s love, and I was particular drawn to this passage:
“If I say, “Surely the darkness will overwhelm me; the light around me will be night”; even the darkness doesn’t hide from you, but the night shines as the day. The darkness is like light to you.” (Psalms 139:11-12 WEB)
Our eyes need light to see. Even with perfect eyesight, we can’t see in total darkness.
It’s okay, because to Jesus, the darkness is still as clear as light. Nothing is hidden from His sight, so rely on Him to give you wisdom.
Jesus is most willing to share what He sees with you.
The year 2020 ahead may seem like pitch blackness because you can’t see the future, but Jesus knows what is ahead.
Ask Him to remove the pitfalls, give you wisdom to face the challenges and to give you favor in every situation.
As you follow His leading through His Spirit inside you, He will guide you by the hand to navigate through the darkness, into a good place!
The one with perfect 20/20 vision in 2020 is Jesus! Follow Him and you will see clearly through Him.
“You crown the year with Your bounty, And Your paths overflow.” (Psalms 65:11 AMP)
You may not be able to see where He’s leading you, but as you walk in Jesus’ paths by faith, you will find them overflowing with His bounty (abundant blessings)!
