Mark 6:7-13

 

Before a call to send, there was a call to follow. There are so many who wants to be sent out, but few wants to follow before actually being sent. When you fail in following Him, you will not pass into His call to be sent. In the days of Jesus, many went to Him, but very few actually followed Him. Today there are so many self called Pastors, Bishops, Evangelist, Apostles, and Gospel Singers who have not taken time to follow Him fully but wants to turn the clock in being sent fully. Many have gone out in His name without power but with a program. There is a great contrast between power and program. With power, there is no devil under heaven that can devil you in doing the work of the Father. However, with a program, you are empty and He is not backing you for what He did not send you. The beginning might be noisy and rosy because of the skill and earthly wisdom. Only time will reveal you and what you are doing. Billy Graham once said, ÒIf the Holy Spirit is taken out of the church, 95% of the church activity will continue without feeling of what is missing.Ó Have you been following? Are you called to be sent? Mark 6:7, ÒAnd He called the twelve to Himself, and began to send them out two by two, and gave them power over unclean spirit.Ó.   Matthew 10:1, ÒAnd when He had called His disciples to Him, He gave them power over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease.Ó Think twice before you get yourself into a calling to be sent. There is a price for responsibility, seek God and ask for His direction before you make a move.
