                   I Am Sending You

Child of Mine, go forth. Go boldly forward to proclaim My kingdom to the 
hurting and to the lost.  For I am sending you to them.  I am sending you
with good news that will make the heart glad, that I love them and that
I am calling them to Myself.  Heal the sick to demonstrate My love and
My compassion to them. This is how I make it real to them... I show them
My love.  I meet them where they are at and I show them how good I am.
If their need is healing, I heal, and I invite them into a close and 
loving relationship with their Creator and Lord.  If they are oppressed by 
the enemy, cast out the demons and set them free.  Then they will see the 
demonstration of My power and they will believe in My name.

I have sent you out, but I have not sent you powerless.  So when you go,
take My power and My anointing with you.  For I have called you to be
My witness.  I have called you to demonstrate the reality of My power
and to be one who proclaims My kingdom.  

Demonstrate My love in practical ways.  Feed the hungry. Care for the
orphans.  Heal the sick.  Cast out demons.  Does that sound impossible to 
you?  Good.  Because I specialize in the impossible.  It is by doing the
impossible that you demonstrate the reality of My kingdom and of My love
to those who do not yet know Me.  

The unsaved are very important to Me.  Why do you think I tarry the return
of My Son to the earth?  It is that the lost might be saved.  That is why
I delay the return, that is why I wait.  But how will the lost come to Me
unless they hear the good news?  And how will they hear if someone does
not tell them in a way that they can understand?  And that someone is you.
And the way they can understand is by speaking the truth of My kingdom,
the good news of My love for man, and also by demonstrating the reality of
it through healings and signs and wonders.

My church has been powerless for too long, having believed the reasoning
of man and having taken on limitations that I have not put on them.  It 
is time for you to abandon these limitations and embrace the reality of 
My kingdom and of My power, for I am sending you to the lost.  I am
sending you to proclaim My good news and I am sending you to demonstrate
My power.  

So rise up, child of Mine. Learn of Me, receive a portion of My compassion
that you might be moved with My love for the lost ones.  Receive a portion 
of My authority, that you might demonstrate My power.  Speak forth the 
message of My good news - that I love mankind and have prepared a way for 
them to come to Me, that I have broken the power of sin and sickness and 
death in their lives and that I desire to give them My victory and set 
them free to know Me.

For I am sending you, Child of Mine, to a world that is lost and sick and
dieing and full of despair.  Bring them the message of My hope and of My
love and of My life and of My deliverance.  I have appointed you as My
mouthpiece to bring this message to the lost.  And I will back you up
with My power as you proclaim My kingdom.  For I am sending you and you 
will not go alone.  I will go with you.
