“Now go, and remember that I am sending you out as lambs among wolves.”
Luke 10:3 (NLT)
In this verse, Jesus gives a clear and simple command – “Now go.” You may be familiar with the Great Commission found in Matthew 28:19-20, “Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always even to the end of the age (NLT).” It’s time we take this command seriously and obey. Although these verses are often used to reference foreign missions, we must not forget that every day we live on a mission field that is ready for harvest – NOW. Today, pray that God would open our eyes to the needs of those around us. Ask Him to create an urgency within us to see our family, friends, and neighbors receive God’s free gift of salvation.
Prayerfully,
Madison
