8-10-07 Mark 16:20

Mark 16:20 (NAS)
And they went out and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them, and confirmed the word by the signs that followed.

Mark 16:20 (Philips)
They went out and preached everywhere. The Lord worked with them, confirming their message by the signs that followed.





Jesus has called you, appointing you to evangelize for Him, to take the good news of His death and resurrection wherever you go. He takes you from the privacy of your home and brings you before the public to attract attention to Him. He has given you a wide audience in which to spread and proclaim His word.
You are His herald and He has given you the authority that causes others to listen to your words and to obey what you say. He has put you on public display to proclaim openly His wonderful works. You preach for Him everywhere He takes you.

Jesus Christ, your Messiah and Lord, has partnered with you in this labor. He works together with you and helps you in all that you do. So take heart; you do not have to go out in your strength alone. You know that Yeshua is the One who empowers you in all of your undertakings.

The Lord establishes all of your steps, making them firm and sure. He confirms what you speak with miracles and wonders. In this way He authenticates and proves that you are sent from Him. Men learn that they can trust what you say, for God's hand is on you and with you. His signs follow your preaching, marking you as His disciple.

This is a firm, true, and faithful saying. So be it! Let it be fulfilled! Amen!
