How many of you at times have sensed the tugging and urgency of your Heavenly Father, leading you to do something that would literally kick over some sacred cows, so to speak. Religion has a way of putting you in a box and conveniently forgetting that you are there. The time has come and it is right now when the very box that many have been in, it has been utterly demolished, but not until you step out.
Many this year have stepped into what I will call the commission of the Lord. The Father has commissioned every believer or shall I say citizen of Heaven to go into all the world and preach and publish openly the good news of the gospel to every creature of the whole human race - Mark 16:5. As you read on, you will find the great commission of the believer. The word commission indicates the authority granted for a particular action or function. As you read on in Mark 16:5-20, you will find also the documents released from heaven, granted you authority to do the works of Christ.
The word permission is to allow someone to do something. The problem with permission, is that it is already a part of the commission. So when we think we have to give someone permission to do what God has commissioned us to do already, we step into an area of control not understanding that God has already approved and sanction the citizens of Heaven when He said “But you shall receive power, (ability, the efficiency and the might).” When the Holy Spirit has come upon you and you shall be my witnesses in Jerusalem and all Judea and Samaria and to the ends of the Earth. So if you have been struggling with the very thing God has placed inside of you, the dreams, and vision God has impregnated you with, Know that there is a time, and a season for all things. Ask the Father, “Is this my time”? Don’t wait on man to permit you to do what God has already commissioned you to do. Step out on Faith and Trust that God will bring you to an expected end that He has for each of us.
Isaiah 61:1-6 Luke 4:18-19
