That They Might be With Him
It says in Mark 3:14, He appointed the twelve that they might be with Him. The Lord chose the disciples to teach them, to minister to them, to teach them to minister and to send them out to preach. The first reason it says that Messiah appointed or chose them was that they might be "with Him." They could not do anything else, if not first with Him. All ministry comes from being with the Lord. You can only become as much as you are if you are with Him. If you feel like you are not really being sent into ministry, you don't have your ministry, you are waiting for it or it is not really happening, maybe you are not really being with Him the way He called you to be with Him. Do you want a great witness? You need a great "withness." Spend time in prayer, communion, the Word, praising, loving, receiving, just being with Him. Then you will have a great witness and you will be great and mighty in ministry when you become great and mighty in being with Messiah.
From Message #434 - Come And See
Take God with you after you start your day with Him. Stay in His presence, sing to Him and praise Him through your day.
