Romans 10:1-21 KJV
[1] Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.
[2] For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
[3] For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
[4] For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.
[5] For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.
[6] But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above :)
[7] Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)
[8] But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
[9] That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
That is all you have to do to be saved, believe! And once you believe you will have no problem confessing with your mouth that Jesus Christ has saved you!
[10] For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
[11] For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
We should not blush to tell of Christ
[12] For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
God doesn't care what colour your skin is or where you are from, if you are a Jew or a Greek. All He cares about is whether you call on His name to be saved or not.
[13] For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
[14] How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?
We need to preach the gospel!
[15] And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
[16] But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?
[17] So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
[18] But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.
[19] But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.
[20] But Esaias is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me.
[21] But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people.
Just as Israel kept rejecting the prophets but others accepted them, theses days many in the church are falling away and we cannot do much about them but we can continue to bring new people into the church and fan the flame so to speak.

Dear Lord, You alone are wonderful and mighty, thank you so much for everything You have done for us, thank you for the great sermon my uncle preached today and thank you for all the churches that have been started to serve You. Please continue to bless them that they may grow. Please use us mighty and please show us what Your will for us is that we may obey You. Please bless and keep everyone in my prayer journal, in Jesus's name, Amen
