Luke 9:2-3
And He (Jesus) sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to perform healing. And He said to them, “Take nothing for your journey, neither a staff, nor a bag, nor bread, nor money; and do not even have two tunics apiece.”

The apostle Peter wrote in his first letter that we who believe—all of us who believe—have been called out of darkness and into His marvelous light. We are now to proclaim the excellencies of Him who called us {1Pt.2:9} fulfilling what God proclaimed through the prophet Isaiah: “The people whom I formed for Myself, will declare My praise.” {Is..43:21}
 
Not all of us are called to be apostles, or prophets, or evangelists, pastors or teachers—however, we are all given a ministry empowered by the Holy Spirit and called to bring the manifestation of His presence wherever we are. {1Cor.12:7-12} We are indeed ambassadors of Christ {2Cor.5:20}, ministers of His love. Paul had also written in that letter to the Corinthian believers saying: “But thanks be to God, who always leads us in His triumph in Christ, and manifests through us the sweet aroma of the knowledge of Him in every place.”  {2Cor.2:14}

Many years ago the Lord gave me a song entitled 'Ambassadors of Peace'. It was in fact the first song I ever wrote. The lyrics started with, 'We are His hands, and we are His feet. Give the good news to everyone you meet. Tell them that He loves them, tell them that He cares. Remember wherever you are, Jesus is there!’ Everything changes when our attitude changes to one of thanksgiving and praise and sharing His love. But it is not our attitude that makes that a reality—it is about our God who watches over His Word to perform it! Obedience to His Word, is what controls the direction of our lives: That has always been true and still is today.

In his second and final letter to Timothy (and on to us) Paul wrote, “But you, be sober in all things, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.” {2Tim.4:5} To clarify one thing, I said a moment ago that not all are called to the ministry of evangelism, and that is true. But we need to understand what the ministry of an evangelist is. God gave evangelists and other ministries to equip the saints for the work of service—so that all believers would tell others of God’s love and Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross of Calvary. To do that in order that they might join that heavenly chorus!

You have been equipped and you have been sent—into the marketplace, the workplace, the everyplace where you go! Equipped and sent to encourage the downtrodden, to bring the light of the Lord into the darkness of the world. You and I can bring His love which is so desperately needed!
 
“Now it shall be, if you will diligently obey the LORD your God, being careful to do all His commandments which I command you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth. And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, if you will obey the LORD your God.” Deuteronomy 28:1-2

LET ALL YOU DO BE DONE AS UNTO THE LORD IN LOVE
