Introduction

Are we ready to be sent forth by God? This powerful message explores the concept of divine commission, drawing parallels to Jesus sending out His apostles in Matthew 10. We're reminded that God equips us for His purpose, even when we feel unprepared. The key lesson here is trust - trusting in God's provision and protection as we step into unfamiliar territories. Just as the apostles were instructed to travel light and rely on God's guidance, we too are called to shed our worldly dependencies and lean fully on our faith. This message challenges us to examine our readiness to be God's spokespersons, influencing others rather than being influenced. It's a call to purify ourselves, allowing the Holy Spirit to work through us. As we contemplate this, let's consider: Are we prepared to face opposition, even from those closest to us, for the sake of our calling? This overview invites us to reflect on our willingness to be sent forth, reminding us that in our weakness, God's strength is made perfect.
