The Promise of His Presence

 

Graphic of a sign


“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations…”
—Matthew 28:19

In our current age, many people seem to lack direction in their lives. But, for followers of the Lord Jesus Christ, this is never the case. Note these words of our Lord recorded in 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.”

Thus, we have our marching orders for this day and every day. And, just as importantly, we have the promise of Christ’s Presence. Today, tomorrow, and every next day, let us go out with joy to serve the Great King, knowing that He is always with us everywhere we may go.
