2 Corinthians 5:20 (NKJV) 20 Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God.
Each person who puts their faith in Christ becomes a child of God.
John 1:12 (NKJV) 12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:
We are no longer orphans. We no longer belong to ourselves.
We are His, bought at a price.
1 Corinthians 6:20 (NKJV) 20 For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.
We have been called to shine His light, a beacon of hope in a dark world.
Ephesians 5:8-10 (NKJV) 8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light…
With these facts established, we now have understanding as to our status in the kingdom of God.
We are not purchased, redeemed, and saved to simply exist and wear the label of Christian.
We are here for a purpose.
Each person’s purpose is unique; designed just for you by God.
But there is a common purpose that we all share; being God’s ambassadors.
An ambassador is a representative; a messenger of a sovereign king or kingdom.
We are representatives of God, the sovereign Creator of all we see.
Everything we do reflects our God; showing people who He is.
It is our duty and honor to represent Him well, in a way that shows a dying world His truth, His love, His hope, His mercy, and His compassion for humanity.
Let us represent Him well, in the name of Jesus. Amen
