The leadership of a country or of a business appoint and send representatives/ ambassadors out to represent them to others. GOD the FATHER sent JESUS to the world to show us what HE was like and to attend HIS business(die for the sins of the world that we might be forgiven John 3:16). JESUS sends believers out in the same manner to witness of HIM (John 20:21, Acts 1:8).
As afollower of CHRIST JESUS, who is the exact representation of GOD the FATHER inhuman form (Hebrews 1:2-3) we represent JESUS and GOD our FATHER to the world. Therefore, people view GOD by what they see in us.
GOD is true to HIS word, for HE cannot lie (Titus 1:2), if HE has said something, HE will do it. HE doesn’t change HIS mind (Numbers 23:19).
We believers are sent out to witness of the character and promises of GOD representing JESUS and GOD the FATHER by what we say and do. We are instructed to simply let our “yes be yes and our no be no” (Matthew 5:37).
In other words, we are called to be people of our word. We are to do what we say and say what we do so our lives reflect our FATHER in heaven and JESUS CHRIST our LORD and Savior. As others see that we are dependable/faithful to our word, they will view GOD as faithful and dependable.
- Many are sent as ambassadors from countries to the US alone.
- But I’ve been made an ambassador for GOD ALMIGHTY’s throne.
- They represent mere men’s’ affairs, ideas, policies and way
- While GOD’s eternal attributes I’m called upon to display.
- How can I possibly represent such a just, holy and loving ONE?
- HE’s all I want but fail to be as through daily affairs I run.
- A still voice speaks, ‘Come learn of ME’, consult ME whatever you do
- Then I will guide your very thoughts living MY nature out through you.
Now, may the LORD guide you with HIS peace (Colossians 3:15), strengthen you with HIS joy (Nehemiah 8:10) and enable you with HIS grace (Hebrews 4:16). Keep looking unto JESUS (Hebrews 12:2) and talk over your thoughts with HIM (2 Corinthians 10:5).
