Mark 16:15



Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. After the resurrection, Jesus spent the next forty days teaching His disciples. I am sure they were much more attentive than they had been. All of the teaching took on new meaning. They understood what Jesus was saying about the spiritual world. But it wasn’t enough for them to understand. Jesus wanted them to share this good news with everyone else. But the disciples weren’t quite ready yet. Jesus told them to wait until the Holy Spirit came down at the Day of Pentecost. So fifty days after the resurrection and ten days after Jesus’ ascension to heaven, the disciples were all together praying in the upper room when the Holy Spirit came upon them and empowered them to do the work of evangelism. Just as Jesus had said, they were ready to tell everyone about eternal life! They were ready to fulfill the great commission that Jesus had for them to do! They were ready to do His will! So, how about you? Are you ready to do what Jesus has called you to do?
