Our ministry is to reach out to the world with the Good News of Jesus Christ and to help believers be equipped with a solid knowledge of the Word of God, the Bible, and be encouraged to apply it in every aspect of their daily lives. There are simple truths for these complex times to help people live in a way that brings real spiritual victory to them and more importantly, through the Lord Jesus Christ, glory to God our Father.

Luke 8:16
Now no one after lighting a lamp covers it over with a vessel, or puts it under a bed; but he puts it on a lampstand, in order that those who come in may see the light.

We live in a very dark world, sin abounds everywhere and fills the news constantly. With that said, there is a light that shines brightly to show the way and give us hope. His name is Jesus! He said so long ago, "I am the light of the world; he who follows Me shall not walk in the darkness, but shall have the light of life." {Jn.8:12}

That glorious truth fulfilled the prophesy of Isaiah 700 years before the birth of Jesus when he said that darkness will cover the earth, and deep darkness the people but the Lord will rise upon you, and His glory will appear upon you. {Is.60:2} So the real issue becomes, as always, who we choose to follow—the world or the Word. There is an “L” of a difference!

Now Jesus has left the earth having fulfilled the Father's purpose and paying the price for sin with His death upon the cross; truly the wages of sin is death {Rom.6:23}. But He did not leave the world in the dark, He said to His disciples that we are now the light of the world {Mat.5:14} until He returns. The Spirit of God and the Spirit of Christ dwells in us! (Rom.8:9}

That is why it is so important that we manifest the sweet aroma of the knowledge of the Lord in every place. {2Cor.2:14} We must live a life that proclaims the excellencies of Him who called you and I out of darkness and into His marvelous light as Peter wrote. {1Pt.2:9} We should be sharing the love of God and His Word as He leads us through our daily lives, for His Word is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path {Ps.119:105} and it keeps us from stumbling around in the dark!

We are truly the earthen vessels that are filled with a treasure, the light of the gospel {2Cor.4:6-7}, and ambassadors for Christ calling others to be reconciled to God {2Cor.5:20} Remember what King Solomon wrote: “Like cold water to a weary soul, so is good news from a distant land.” {Pro.25:25} Bless somebody today and tell them that Jesus loves them!

Jesus said:
“What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in your ear, proclaim upon the housetops.” (Matthew 10:27)

WE ARE AMBASSADORS FOR GOD’S KINGDOM
