You are about to receive a call that will change your life. A good patriotic American, you support our country, you excel at what you do, and you have always liked adventure.

One day your phone rings, and it is the President of the United States. He tells you that he has heard a lot about you, and is calling to offer a position to you.

You feel deeply honored, and can’t wait to hear what he has to say. He explains that the position is to be an ambassador in a country in on another continent, far from America.

The president continues:
•     I want you to go in and establish a presence in this nation; develop relationships, and be a witness to these people about our nation, our way of life, and what we value most about life.
•     They have a different culture and worship many gods. So I want you to be on guard against it, and do not embrace it as your own (don’t go native).
•     We have a window of time before their government turns against us totally, so I am sending you in to do important work.
•     This is a dangerous mission and your life may be in danger, but I will support you all the way.

This might be the most important call of your life. So what do you think? Would you take this call and accept this assignment?

NOT A CALL, BUT A CALLING

Ring ring. You are now receiving another call (REALLY). but it is not on your phone or from the President of the United States. It is a call from the sovereign, living God of the universe, calling you to serve as an Ambassador of Christ from the Kingdom of God to the U.S. and to the world.

The position description is similar to the one above, except you will be representing the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, not merely the President of the United States. And you will not merely be seeking to establish good will; you will be sharing a life-saving message – the love and truth of Christ – with lost souls who do not know the Lord.

The Holy Spirit explains that although there is danger in this position, He has your back and will be with you all the way, guiding you, protecting you, and opening doors for you to do His work.

So what do you think – WILL YOU TAKE THE CALL and accept this assignment? If you do, it will be the most important thing you will ever do in your life, and you will never be the same.

“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.”               II Corinthians 5:20

To God be the glory
