I AM A AMBASSADOR FOR CHRIST!

TODAY I AM KINGDOM MINDED AND I HAVE A COVENANT WITH GOD. BECAUSE I AM WILLING TO DO WHATEVER GOD'S WORDS WOULD HAVE ME DO EVEN IF IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO ME. IF GOD'S WORDS SAYS DO IT THAT'S WHAT I DO, IF GOD'S SPIRIT SAYS WRITE IT THAT'S WHAT I WRITE, AND IF GOD'S VOICE SAYS SPEAK IT THAT'S WHAT I SPEAK.

I HAVE FAITH IN GOD'S WORDS THAT THEY ARE
TRUE. I TRUST GOD'S WORDS THAT THEY ARE TRUE. I BELIEVE GOD'S WORDS ARE TRUE.

"FOR CHRIST'S LOVE COMPELS US, BECAUSE WE ARE CONVINCED THAT ONE DIED FOR ALL, AND THEREFORE ALL DIED. AND CHRIST DIED FOR ALL, THAT THOSE WHO LIVE SHOULD NO LONGER LIVE FOR THEMSELVES BUT FOR CHRIST WHO DIED FOR THEM AND WAS RAISED AGAIN.
SO FROM NOW ON WE REGARD NO ONE FROM A WORLDLY POINT OF VIEW. THOUGH WE ONCE REGARDED CHRIST IN THIS WAY, WE DO SO NO LONGER. THEREFORE, IF ANYONE IS IN CHRIST, HE IS A NEW CREATION; THE OLD HAS GONE, THE NEW HAS COME! ALL THIS IS FROM GOD, WHO RECONCILED US TO HIMSELF THROUGH CHRIST AND GAVE US THE MINISTRY OF RECONCILIATION: THAT GOD WAS RECONCILING THE WORLD TO HIMSELF IN CHRIST, NOT COUNTING MEN'S SINS AGAINST THEM. AND GOD HAS COMMITTED TO US THE MASSAGE OF RECONCILIATION. WE ARE THEREFORE CHRIST'S AMBASSADORS, AS THOUGH GOD WERE MAKING HIS APPEAL THROUGH US. WE IMPLORE YOU ON CHRIST'S BEHALF: BE RECONCILED TO GOD. GOD MADE CHRIST WHO HAD NO SIN TO BE SIN FOR US, SO THAT IN CHRIST WE MIGHT BECOME THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD.
(2 Corinthians 5:14-21)

AS AN AMBASSADOR FOR CHRIST I HAVE A MESSAGE FOR ALL THOSE WHO CELEBRATED EASTER AND THOSE WHO DIDN'T. WHEN CHRIST DIED ON GOOD FRIDAY, WE WHO CELEBRATED EASTER DIED WITH HIM. WE DIED TO OUR SINFUL NATURE, OUR HUMAN DESIRES. AND WHEN CHRIST ROSE ON EASTER MORNING, WE ROSE WITH HIM IN OUR SPIRITUAL NATURE. WE ARE A NEW CREATION.
THE PROBLEM IS PEOPLE HAVE NOT DIED TO THEIR HUMAN NATURE, THEY GO TO CHURCH ON EASTER SUNDAY AND FEEL REAL RELIGIOUS SAYING "HE HAS RISEN, HE HAS RISEN INDEED!" BUT NOTHING HAS CHANGED, THEY ARE STILL OPERATING IN THEIR OLD NATURE JUST DRESSED UP!

THEN JESUS SAID TO THEM ALL: "IF ANYONE WOULD COME AFTER ME, HE MUST DENY HIMSELF AND TAKE UP HIS CROSS DAILY AND FOLLOW ME. FOR WHOEVER WANTS TO SAVE HIS LIFE WILL LOSE IT, BUT WHOEVER LOSES HIS LIFE FOR ME WILL SAVE IT. WHAT GOOD IS IT FOR A MAN TO GAIN THE WHOLE WORLD, AND YET LOSE OR FORFEIT HIS VERY SELF? (Luke 9:23-25)

AS AN AMBASSADOR FOR CHRIST I DIE TO SELF EVERYDAY, THEN I MUST TAKE UP MY DEAD SELF, MY CROSS AND FOLLOW CHRIST. I LOSE MY HUMAN NATURE LIFE FOR CHRIST, TO SAVE MY SPIRITUAL NATURE IN CHRIST.

I HAVE FOLLOWED JESUS TO GOD THE FATHER WHO NOW TEACHES ME HOW TO LIVE LIKE JESUS, HOW TO BE A SON LIKE JESUS. WITH GOD AS MY TEACHER I HAVE NO DOUBT I WILL GET IT RIGHT.

"GOD YOU ARE THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS, AND THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS TO ME IS MY RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU!" AMEN.

MAY THE GOD OF PEACE, WHO THROUGH THE BLOOD OF THE ETERNAL COVENANT BROUGHT BACK FROM THE DEAD OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, THAT GREAT SHEPHERD OF THE SHEEP, EQUIP ME WITH EVERYTHING GOOD FOR DOING GOD'S WILL, AND MAY GOD WORK IN ME WHAT IS PLEASING TO GOD, THROUGH JESUS CHRIST, TO WHOM BE GLORY FOR EVER AND EVER." AMEN! (Heb.13:20-21)

"CHRIST IS THE PATTERN FOR MY LIFE, AND GOD IS TRANSFORMING ME TO THE PATTERN. SO I SAY THANKS BE TO GOD." AMEN!
