You are Christ’s ambassador (1)

April 12, 2023

“We are…Christ’s ambassadors.” 2Co 5:20 NIV

Your job in the kingdom of God is that of an “ambassador.” What a privilege! And what a responsibility! Over the next few days, let’s look at some of the qualities of an ambassador: You must be a citizen of the country you represent. And “our citizenship is in heaven” (Php 3:20 NIV). Exiled, John said, “I…was on the island of Patmos…On the Lord’s Day I was in the Spirit” (Rev 1:9-10 NIV). John knew it was not where he was but whose he was that counted the most as he represented his Lord.

Your life is the only Bible many people will ever read. From your lips they will receive the only gospel they ever hear. And your attitude may do more to win them than all your arguments. Before He was crucified, Jesus prayed this prayer for His disciples: “I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth. As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world” (Jn 17:15-18 NKJV).

Before an ambassador is appointed, he or she goes through the closest scrutiny imaginable. Their moral integrity, their financial interactions, their family life, their work record, their every word and action come under the microscope. Shouldn’t it be more so for ambassadors of the King of Kings? Never forget whose side you’re on. Never forget what kingdom you belong to. Never forget who you represent. You are Christ’s ambassador.
