Reppin' Christ in 2012

Now then we are ambassadors for Christ....

– 2 Corinthians 5:20

I want you to understand something!!!

You are an ambassador to Christ!! 

If you have made Jesus Christ the Lord of your life, you have been sent to act as a representative for Him in this world. 

Just like other nations send ambassadors to represent their interests in other countries, you've been sent here to look after the interests of the kingdom of God.... That is AWESOME!!!!

Take a quick second, and let it sink into that thick head of yours!!!

Everywhere you go.... you are representing the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. 

Do you realize what an honor this is? 

God has equipped you to do it... He's given you His Name and the power of His Word.... He's even put His very own Spirit inside you....(Ultimate in Awesomeness)

And He's given you the ability to hear... and obey the directions of that Spirit.

I heard a prophecy years ago that said there would come a time when men on the earth would walk and talk and act like God. 

They'd be motivated by His power and His Spirit so strongly that people would say of them, "Look at those believers. They think they're God." 

"No," the Holy Spirit said, "they are not God. They are agents of God, children of God, ambassadors of God, sent to do the works of God."

Whoa!!!! That is a tall order to fill... But we can do it through God's grace.

I believe we're living in the day and hour that prophecy was talking about. 

We're seeing that army of light begin to grow, and mature....

This is no time to be half-consecrated and half-dedicated. 

This is the time to go all the way with God, to give Him your whole life!!! 

If you'll do that, I gurantee... God will give you back such an anointing and power with such glory and goodness that you'll shine for Him, as Philippians 2:15 says, as lights in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation.

Begin to think about yourself today, not as just another ordinary man or woman but as an ambassador of Almighty God. 

Let the interests of His kingdom be at the front part of your mind. Submit yourself to Him and say, "Lord, show me how to be Your representative in everything I do."

You are an ambassador for Christ. Begin to live like it today.

Until next Week, have a blessed weekend!!!

Blessings,
