Responding to the Call of Jesus

Today, we delve into the Great Commission from Matthew 28:16-20, exploring how Jesus' final instructions to His disciples apply to our lives as modern-day believers. We're reminded that the authority of Christ is the foundation of our mission, giving us confidence to share the Gospel without fear. The command to 'go and make disciples' isn't just for professional missionaries - it's for all of us. We're called to be everyday missionaries, sharing Jesus in our workplaces, neighborhoods, and social circles. The passage emphasizes that our mission is empowered by Christ's presence, comforting us with the promise 'I am with you always.' This reminds us that we're never alone in our efforts to spread God's love and truth. As we consider how to live out this calling, we're encouraged to pray for the non-believers in our lives, do ordinary things with gospel intentionality, speak the truth boldly, and invite others into our faith community. The Great Commission challenges us to cross cultural and social boundaries, reflecting God's heart for all nations and people groups.
