SCRIPTURE: Matt. 8-10

Matthew 10:5-8
Jesus sent his twelve harvest hands out with this charge:

“Don’t begin by traveling to some far-off place to convert unbelievers. And don’t try to be dramatic by tackling some public enemy. Go to the lost, confused people right here in the neighborhood. Tell them that the kingdom is here. Bring health to the sick. Raise the dead. Touch the untouchables. Kick out the demons. You have been treated generously, so live generously.

OBSERVATIONS: The job is simpler than I make it sometimes.

APPLICATION: Joey, the list is here and it’s short. Go to the lost. Tell them the kingdom is here. Bring health. Revive the dead. Touch the untouchables. Kick out demons.

PRAYER: God, my work is before me. Strengthen me for the task. I go in Christ’s name, Amen.
