The Great Commision-DD 8/9/2010

"Go ye therefore and teach all nations..." Matt 28:19

Jesus had just spent 3 years teaching disciples and apostles alike what thus saith the Lord. They were able to witness many miracles and hear heavenly wisdom. Jesus empowered them through the Holy Spirit to themselves be able to perform miracles and bring others to Christ. There was a time, however, when their school was out.

Jesus had told them many times that there would come a day when he would depart. As the day approached, he gave what was among their last lessons when he said to take what they had learned and go to the masses to share it with them. In fact, he told them to leave the comfort of their own familiar territory and share the good news with the world.

The fact that you are reading this is evidence that they did just that. The word of God has spread across the planet. Billions acknowledge Him. Beloved, this would not be possible if those who believed did not continue the mission of going to all nations and teaching.

Today I will be in a place called Independence City, a small town outside of Kingston, Jamaica. I am working with the International American Medical Mission who take medicine, doctors, dentists, nurses and most of all, the word of God to those who might not otherwise receive it. To be sure I am far away from home and definitely out of my comfort zone, however, this is the command of the Lord. I solicit your prayers.

Not everyone has the opportunity to leave the country but everyone has the opportunity to carry the word to someone that does not know it. It is called the Great Commission and it extends to you and I today, just as it did to the 11. Help save someone today.

In Revival,

Lee
