The Reason He Called You

Thursday, January 14, 2021

It says in Mark 3:14, "He appointed the twelve that they might be with Him". The Lord chose the disciples to teach and to minister to them, to teach them to minister and to send them out to preach. Why did Messiah choose the disciples? So that they might be with Him. Without first being with Him, they wouldn't be able to do anything else. All ministry comes from being with the Lord. You can only become what He's called you to be if you are with Him. If you're waiting for your calling, your purpose, your ministry - perhaps you're not really being with Him the way He called you to be with Him. Do you want to be a great witness? Then you first need to have a great witness. Spend time in prayer, communion, the Word, praising, loving, receiving, just being with Him. Then you will have a great witness. You'll become great and mighty in ministry when you become great and mighty in being with Him.
