He Who Sends Me Out

(Jn9:1-12)

God is the God of honor.

He cherishes His name, and

He honors His will.

Faith is knowing Him and honoring Him, and

The life of this faith is being send off by His name and doing His work until being called back by Him.

The purpose of being sent is

To carry out the will of the one who sent and

His guarantee is continuous support and return.

While the one who is sent off is for the honor of the one who sends him off,

Such as ambassadors, spies, athletes, troops etc,

The most glorious sending among them is that of the troops who go out to risk their life for

They will certainly return ” dead or alive.

Deceived by the devil,

The archangel who sinned in heaven and was banished from there (Is14:12-15),

Adam sinned and was banished from the Garden (Ge2:17, 3:6, 24).

God sent Moses into Egypt and

Brought out the Israelites (Ex3:4, 10) as

It was the beginning of His work to return all men to Him.

The Testimony of the sanctuary reminded them that

God sent an angel (Ex25:19-21; Nu20:16) and

Summoned them by their name out of Egypt and they became God's servants (Is43:1).

Furthermore, the explorer who wholeheartedly followed the One who sent him was

Given the land he went to (Nu14:24).

The prophecy spoke of a trustworthy messenger will be sent and

Like a snow-cooled drink at harvest time

He would refresh the spirit of his Master (Pr25:13).

Once the Spirit of the Lord was with Him,

Jesus began His public life (Is61:1-12; Mt3:16) by

Calling disciples and sending them out to preach (Mk3:13),

Healing the sick (Jn9:7) which was

Doing the will of the Father who sent Him, doing His work (Jn6:38).

As He died, Jesus said, "It is finished (Jn19:30), declaring that He:
1) Refreshed the heart of the Father who sent Him (Jn10:17);
2) Condemned the devil who challenged the name of God (1Jn3:8); and
3) Through the Spirit of the Son, His blood, made all men His sons to send them out again (Gal4:5).

After He ascended

The Holy Spirit came (Jn14:16) to:
1) Call by the grace of the blood of Yeshua (Gal1:15);
2) Gather them into the church in the name Yeshua; and
3) Send them out to the world in the name Yeshua.

The man of the Spirit is he who

Knows that he now has a public status of being sent out.

Therefore, he pledges his life to

Only speak the words that are already determined and

Do the work already determined (Jn14:24) so that

When the Lord Jesus Christ appears in the air

He would finally return to heaven.

O Lord,

In every moment of my life

Let me only speak the words that refresh the heart of the One who sent me and

Only do the work that pleases Him! Amen.
