EMISSARY: You are an emissary of Jesus Christ - 1 Peter 1:1

This letter is from Peter, an emissary of Jesus Christ. I am writing to God’s chosen people who are living as foreigners in the provinces of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia. 1 Peter 1:1

Living Truth:
  • I am not asking that You take them out of the world, but that You keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. Set them apart by the truth; Your Word is truth. As You sent Me into the world, I have also sent them into the world." John 17:15-18 
  • “As the Father has sent Me, I am sending you.” John 20:21
  • “And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: ‘How beautiful are the feet of those who bring Good News!'” Romans 10:15
Emissary: "An agent sent on a mission to represent the interests of someone else."

Prayer & Praise
Here I am, send me, Lord Jesus. Please empower me to be an emissary like Peter, whose mission in life is to represent You and advance Your kingdom interests here on earth. There is no greater reward in life than serving You. I marvel at how You choose the foolish and weak of this world, and transform them into somebodies who shame the wise and the strong. I thank You for saving me from a life of aimlessness and evil acts, and for giving me a mission in life that has an eternal purpose. Send me, Holy Spirit, to a family member, friend, or stranger who feels like an invisible reject. Speak hope into their broken heart as I share the Good News about Jesus, in whose mighty name I pray.
