Matthew 28:16–20 ESV
“What am I to do with my life?“

What is the central focus of your life? In Matthew 28:16-20, Jesus sends out his disciples with the great commission, promising his power and presence. Two points are significant in Jesus‘ words. First, he calls us into “action” by challenging us to go and make disciples of other people. This is to be one of the central foci of our calling in our lives. Secondly, he reassures his disciples that he will be with them (and us) and will impart spiritual power.

To apply this to our lives, we should pray for God to show us who to invest in, watch expectantly for opportunities with those people to arise, invest intentionally in them, trust God to provide, and immerse ourselves in the truth.

Matthew 28:16-20
English Standard Version
The Great Commission

16 Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. 17 And when they saw him they worshiped him, but some doubted.18 And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
