Governments appoint ambassadors as their representatives to various nations. The ambassador is chosen and sent with the authority to speak for his or her government. This person should not speak and work on his/her own behalf, but rather express the government’s will and best interests.
Those who have trusted in Jesus Christ have also been appointed as His ambassadors. Our royal appointment comes from the King of kings. In John 15:16 Jesus said, “You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.”
Jesus has called and appointed believers to be His ambassadors to the world. We must represent His will and purpose faithfully to honor His name. We are to speak the words that He gives us. To give us power in support of our appointment, we are given direct access to the Father, along with the promise that the Father will give us the power.
Jesus is calling you to His royal service. Are you ready to faithfully serve the King of kings?
