Matthew 28: 16-20
Then
the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had
told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some
doubted. Then Jesus came to them and said, "All
authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and
make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father
and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey
everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the
very end of the age."
Lord of the Universe,
I
ascend the Most High and Holy Mountain to the Pinnacle of Your
Presence. Bowing down in awe of Your majesty, I worship and adore You in
the beauty of holiness. You are the One and Only True and Living God.
Raised from the dead, You are Ruler of heaven and earth! All authority
belongs to You! Your power is vast and victorious. I never want to doubt
that "My God Reigns!"
You
are the King supremely seated on the throne of my heart. I submit my
whole life to Your final costly command. Clearly, Your parting Words
commission me to GO to every community in every country telling people
of every culture to repent and believe in You for the forgiveness of
sins and eternal life. Proclaiming the Good News, I'll persuade people
everywhere to pursue You. Practicing extravagant love, I'll teach them
by example to obey You.
Please
fill me with Holy Spirit power to GO with brave boldness. Open my eyes
to see all the sick, sad souls surrounding me. Open my ears to hear the
sound of people marching to hell. Give me a sensitive spirit to stop and
share the Only Way to eternal life. It's not optional. It's a mandatory
mission from the One I call King, Lord and Master. To disobey would be
disrespectful insubordination!
I
claim the powerful promise that accompanies this great commission. You
pledge to be with me all the days of my life. You will never ever leave
me! Since I can't fathom the thought of anyone spending eternity with
Satan, I'll courageously and confidently conquer my fears and GO as You
command. One day every tongue will confess You are God, one day every
knee will bow to the glory of Your Most High and Holy Name. I exalt You,
O Lord, above the heavens. Let Your glory be over all the earth!
Alleluia! Amen.
