God’s Embassy
“Oyez!” “Oyez!” “Oyez!”
Proverbs 13: 17. (KJV)
“A wicked messenger falleth into mischief: but a faithful ambassador is health.”
Throughout many lands and Nations there are God’s ambassadors. They are there to represent God to the people of that Nation.
Just as some countries have an Embassy on foreign soil, so does God!
His Ambassadors are to be faithful and in that they will bring health to the people…
the presence of God is in His Embassies.
Each Christian Church that proclaims Jesus Christ is God’s Son, and that you have forgiveness of sins through His shed blood on the Cross of Calvary; is an Embassy of God.
It is a safe haven for the citizens of the Kingdom of God here on earth!
Every ‘Born-Again’ Christian is an Ambassador for Christ.
2 Corinthians 5: 20. (KJV)
“Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God.”
The mission of God is to be reconciled to His creation, His people, once again.
That was the reason for Jesus coming to the earth…
The Cross of Jesus reaches up to God from the earth, and across to mankind to bridge the divide that sin has made.
It fills the gap!
Perfectly!
It is the central piece of the puzzle, all else hangs off of it.
Isaiah 33: 5- 7. (KJV)
“The Lord is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with judgment and righteousness.
And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, and strength of salvation:
the fear of the Lord is his treasure.
Behold, their valiant ones shall cry without:
the ambassadors of peace shall weep bitterly.”
The Lord is exalted!
In Him is wisdom and knowledge: this will be your stability…
the strength of salvation in Christ Jesus Our Lord.
This Holy fear of the Lord, the Awesome God, is His treasure!
The valiant ones cry out to the people of the nations:
“Come find this Treasure!”
The Ambassadors of Christ and His peace, weep for those who know Him not. We cry out day and night for their souls, for their salvation.
So know this:
There is a safe haven for all who would come to God’s Embassy and find life and peace in Christ Jesus!
“Oyez!” “Oyez!”
