These Jesus sent

What a privilege it is to have the calling of the Lord in our lives, it is special to be chosen by our great and mighty God, to take his word wherever there is life. The purpose of our God is that everyone can reach salvation and eternal life.

Matthew chapter 10, verse 5, shows us those great servants chosen by God, those who did not hesitate to follow the Master. God called them so that when His days on earth were soon to end, they would be the ones to continue carrying the gospel of Christ and so that the word of the Lord would be spread.

Jesus clearly told them to go to those lost sheep, that is, those of the house of Israel. There he said the following:

These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:

Matthew 10:5

The Lord’s command to the disciples was very clear, that is why they were sent out, with the full backing of the Lord, they knew that they would suffer greatly in carrying the gospel.

The Lord was reminding them through these words, that He is the only one who can deliver the demoniac, the hungry and thirsty, the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the leper, because the kingdom of heaven was at hand and they had to return to the Lord. This was the mission of the disciples.
