The Attack of the Lambs

Saturday, July 17, 2021

In Matthew 10:16, Messiah tells His disciples "I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves." The shepherd protects the sheep from the wolves. But Messiah, the Good Shepherd, sends his sheep out among the wolves. Why? Because ultimately good must overcome evil. Ultimately good is stronger than evil. Messiah would never have sent out His sheep, if they weren't strong enough in Him to overcome evil. As Messiah's sheep, we are strong enough to overcome the wolves of the world. So you're never to live in fear, in retreat, or on the defense. The good has to go forth and overcome the world. In nature, lambs live in fear of the wolf, and on the defense, but in Messiah's kingdom, it's the opposite. In Messiah the Lamb goes forth to conquer and it's the wolves who fear. So don't fear any evil, the enemy, or this world. Get out of the sheep pen. Get out of hiding, and go forth into the world. Face the darkness head-on. Spread the Gospel. Overcome the world because in Messiah, it's the wolves who fear and the lambs who go forth.
