Matthew 10 : 41

Whoever welcomes a prophet as a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward, and whoever welcomes a righteous person as a righteous person will receive a righteous person’s reward

One of the biggest wishes of International Relations college students is to be a diplomat or an ambassador to represent their country or a certain organization to take care of the diplomatic matters. And to get the profession, they have to fulfill so many requirements.

Jesus has been calling us to take part as an ambassador for His kingdom of heaven. This started when He called His students to preach the Gospel. He did not choose based on ordinary standard such as tittles, position and profession, but based only on His will.

Before being called by Jesus, the students’ lives were sufficient. One of them was a great fisherman, a treasurer, and a custom worker. Yet when Jesus told them, “Follow Me,” they immediately left their jobs and families to walk with Jesus. They were chosen to be the ambassadors of the Gospel to spread the salvation to the world.

Jesus blessed them with the authority to repel demons and cure diseases. He decided on their way to serve, and that was to serve with others, to work together. An ambassador does not just go anywhere he wants. The target has already been decided by The Sender.

The command has also been clarified in detail, which is to profess the power of the kingdom of heaven in reality. The ambassador travels not for vacationing, but to fulfill the glorious mission that Jesus has given to him, that is to preach the Gospel. They serve ad Jesus served.

Becoming a Gospel ambassador is not an option, yet it is also not a voluntary work. It is a glorious calling, a mission for everyone who has experienced the power of the King of Heaven.
