HE CALLED AND THEY CAME Tuesday November 10, 2015
Text: Mark 3:13 – 21 Memory verse: v 13
Christ calls whom He will; for the grace is His own. He had called the Apostles to separate them from the crowd, and they came to Him. He now gave them power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils. Christ had to commission them which is a proof that no one may undertake the work and calling of the ministry, but those whom Christ appoints and calls. This is in respect of the special calling of being an apostle or priest.
However, there is the call to universal priesthood. This is the call on all Christians and believers. The commissioning was before the ascension of our Lord that we should be His witnesses. Have you answered that call? If you have not answered, this is the opportunity you have to answer. God needs men and women for His work. May the Lord send forth more and more of those who have been with Him, and have learned of Him to preach His gospel, to be instruments in His blessed work, Amen.
Action: As one called into the universal priesthood, ensure you preach to someone today.
Prayer: God, help me to fulfill my call into the universal priesthood.
