OPENING PRAYER
Almighty God, we open this on this Holy weekend with thanksgiving in our hearts. We all are so very blessed. Blessed beyond any merit we think we might have except one! We who have gathered belong to You, we only exist because of You, and we live only at Your will. Thank-YOU! Grant us open minds, hearts and souls to the message revealed through Holy Scripture, grant us wisdom and discernment to understand and obey Your will. We pray this in the name of Jesus the Christ, AMEN.
MESSAGE
When Jesus sat down and began preparing a list of MESSENGERS or
AMBASSADORS, He made it quite clear in saying: " Ye have not
chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go
and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain"..{Joh
15:16 KJV} Did you know that ANGELS are also known as MESSENGERS
or AMBASSADORS? The Hebrew word is pronounced "mal akh",
and in Greek; "presbeu" a precursor to what we know today
as a "presbyter" or "Presbyterian".
Everyone of us who have confessed Jesus and been infilled with the Holy Spirit are AMBASSADORS of GOD. Our commission came from Jesus himself: in Mat 28:19 NASB "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. As we follow through on this AMBASSADORSHIP, we share the beauty and majesty of the Gospel of Christ, through our behavior, our words, our touch, our kindness and our Love.
The Lord said to [His Ambassador Ananias], "Go, for [Saul] is a chosen instrument of Mine, to bear My name before the Gentiles and kings and the sons of Israel; (16) for I will show him how much he must suffer for My name's sake." { Act 9:15-16 NASB} Little did Saul [called Paul] know then just how demanding his AMBASSADORSHIP would be, and Paul accepted it fully to his last breath.
As Ambassadors of the Living God, we enjoy the full backing of the Lord's awesome power. It is here where we are most effective as result of our adoption into the Holy Family. As Children of God, we have access to the very throne of The Creator. An awesomely wonderful tool is the power of prayer! Through this gift and privilege and well practiced Faith, even mountains can be moved! (seemingly impossible feats) We have an open channel at any hour from any location, and never receive a busy signal!!
SUMMARY/APPLICATION
1Co 1:27-29 NKJV But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty; (28) and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, (29) that no flesh should glory in His presence.
Being commissioned as an Ambassador for Jesus is a really big deal. It should never be taken for granted. Instead, it should be our personal mission to conduct ourselves in a manner that reflects well on our Lord and Maker in all situations and callings. Of all the tools GOD has gifted us, the greatest is Holy Scripture, THE BIBLE. When we pray, God will often reply to us through His Word in Holy Scripture. The more you read the Bible, the more you learn about your Creator, and learn His will. As you read it, it reads you!
CLOSING PRAYER
Holy Father, Mighty Lord grant us the wisdom and discipline to fill ourselves to the brim with You. To be consumed by Your love and Holiness.
As we go our way, returning to a carnal world, let us remain insulated against the wiles of Satan, let us hold firm until we meet again.
Walking in the foot-steps of our Savior, in Jesus we pray, Amen
DOXOLOGY
Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow;
Praise Him, all creatures here below;
Praise Him above, Ye heav'n-ly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
Amen
BENEDICTION: Num 6:24-26 The LORD bless you, and keep you; The LORD make His face shine on you, And be gracious to you; The LORD lift up His countenance on you, And give you peace.'AMEN
Christ go with you now...until we meet again
Christ go with you now...keep praying on till then
It really doesn't matter what the weather...
Just as long as we all are TOGETHER...
Christ go with you now...Till we meet again!
