Description
God has extended safety and belonging to us, and He calls us to do the same to others. It would work well for the enemy to trick people into believing that the practice of hospitality requires a large budget, large amounts of time, or a large home. All of those are lies. Your house doesn’t have to be perfect and your budget doesn’t either. Being hospitable is important to God, and He speaks of it in the Word as one clear way we love others.

Hey you guys, this is Heidi St. John. Thanks for tuning in today. Today’s episode number 817 and this is Wednesday, September 11th. This is the day we study MomStrong International. We’re talking about the topic of being an ambassador for Christ in the culture today and also we’re going to take a little bit of time to remember and reflect on 9-11.
Stick around, I think you’re going to be encouraged.
This is my favorite day of the week here at the podcast. We talk about the study that’s happening at MomStrong International. If you haven’t joined us over there yet, this is a great time to do it. We’re on week two of our study on what it means to be an ambassador. I love that we’re talking about this because there has never been a more important time for God’s people to be who God says that we are—and that is to be ambassadors. The Bible says that God is literally making His appeal through us when He says: come back to me. So it begs the question— are we being ambassadors for the Lord Jesus? What does it look like to be an ambassador? The Bible teaches us that we have been set apart.
2 Corinthians 6:14-17 For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? What harmony is there between Christ and Belial? Or what does a believer have in common with an unbeliever? What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “I will live with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be my people.” Therefore, “Come out from them and be separate, says the Lord.
Let’s come before the Father in prayer. Lord Jesus, I thank you that you have given us Your Word as a lamp to our feet and a light to our path. I thank you for faithful men and women who teach Your Word and live it. Lord, as we talk a little bit about what it means to be an ambassador, Father that you would give us all the courage to live by our convictions, the courage to be who you say that we are are.
