Scriptures: Mark 16: 15-20
Hallelujah, Praise God forevermore.
In today’s devotion, we can infer or conclude from Mark 16:15 and 20 that; God’s number one agenda is to preach the gospel to everyone, everywhere and anytime.
The above two verses also substantiate that the Holy Spirit is given for service (preaching and teaching with signs and wonders).
Again, Luke 4:18-19 and Isaiah 61:1-2 vividly prove that The Holy Spirit is given for the anointing to do God’s work with compassion.
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives And recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed;
To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.” – Luke 4:18-19 NKJV
Do you desire to have the power of God?
Then, be ready to witness to others by showing them the love, kindnes, grace and compassion of Jesus Christ.
PRAYER:
Father, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ:
1. I avail myself for your use to witness to the brokenhearted, poor, sick, oppressed, etc.
2. Lord, melt me, mould me, fill me with your Holy Spirit and use me to witness.
3.Blessed Holy Spirit come upon me with your mighty presence and power to heal.
4. Lord Jesus Christ, consider their threats and stretch out your healing power to heal and perform signs and wonders in our preaching and teaching.
5. Father of heaven and earth, baptise us with your Holy Spirit to preach your word boldly to win souls for your Kingdom.
15 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.
16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.
17 And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues;
18 they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well.”
19 After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of God.
20 Then the disciples went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them and confirmed his word by the signs that accompanied it. – Mark 16:15-20 NIV
