April 10 In Us, To Us, Through Us

In Mark 16:19 and 20 right after Jesus gave “The Great Commission” it says that Jesus was taken up into heaven. Verse 20 says something astounding that shows immediate obedience gets results. It says… then the disciples went out and preached everywhere and the Lord worked with them and confirmed His Word by the signs that accompanied it. People got saved, healed and delivered because the disciples obeyed the message Jesus gave them. God places a high premium on obedience. He tells us to not only hear the message but to be doers as well.(James 1:22) So healing isn’t just so I can feel good, it is for others too! God wants us to obey His Word, not only so we get saved, healed and delivered, but so we can see as many as possible come into His Kingdom and be saved, healed and delivered. His great commission isn’t just a good suggestion, or even just a good idea. It is God’s will for us, that we go about, just like Jesus did, doing good and healing all who were oppressed of the devil. It might feel scary, but Jesus promised He would never leave us or forsake us. He will be with us. To me that means, you’ve got this! Its like God saying, go for it! We can do it, empowered by the Holy Spirit, and great things can happen in us, to us and through us!
