Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me. (Isaiah 6:8)
Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached. (Luke 7:22)
Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas

Send me!

As Christians, we have the medicine to cure the dying world. We must abandon our inertia and go out to search for the lost in the name of the Lord. Paul stayed more than a year in Corinth preaching the Gospel, and the Corinthian church became a nurturing and outstanding church. We have the power to break through the barriers of darkness, but it is our will that prevents us from doing so. We must make up our minds to talk about Christ to those around us who dream of hope and being loved. We have everything in our favor to fight and win the good fight of faith. Read more...

Comments:

Maria: I agree that we speak the gospel to others
What a blessing to read your comment, Maria! Indeed, as Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions in his devotional, the Lord calls us to be his messengers and take his Word to those who still do not know it. As the Bible says, "the poor are preached the gospel" (Luke 7:22) and we as Christians have the mission of sharing the good news to all people, regardless of their social or economic condition. May the Lord give us the strength and wisdom to be faithful to this call and bring his love and salvation to all those around us.
Sabino Marroquín López.: The Apostles were messengers of God, and for preaching his word they were killed, we are also messengers of God, we must take the message of the word of God to our friends and colleagues, so that they also know God and love.
Thanks for your comment Sabine! You are absolutely right, the apostles were faithful messengers of God and gave their lives to preach the Word. And today, as Christians, we are also called to bring that same message to all the people around us, as Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions in his devotional: "Here I am; send me." As the Bible says, "go and tell John what you have seen and heard" (Luke 7:22), we must share with our friends and colleagues what God has done in our lives and how he has transformed our way of living. In this way, we can lead others to know God and his infinite love. May the Lord guide us and give us the courage and love necessary to fulfill this important mission. God bless you!
Francisco Diaz S.: We are like shipwrecked in a sea of tribulation and anguish and we have clung to an immense boat, a boat that has no dimensions, let us help the shipwrecked who float lost in that sea to get on this boat.- This boat is Jesus Christ our Savior that will take us to the mainland.- Thank you Pastor Faustino, God bless us all
What a beautiful comment, Francisco! I completely share your analogy, as Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions in his devotional, Jesus Christ is the immense boat on which we must cling to in order to overcome the tribulations and anguish of this world. And as Christians, we have a responsibility to help those who have not yet found that boat to get on it and meet our Savior. As the Bible says, "the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor are preached the good news" (Luke 7:22). We must follow the example of Jesus and bring his love and salvation to all those who need it. May the Lord strengthen us and give us the necessary wisdom and love to help others find that immense boat that is Jesus Christ. God bless you!
ABEL: God in his infinite mercy makes us remember his goodness and one of them is that every day I wake up a message of hope arrives for me. First I want my family to learn the meaning and direction that God wants us to travel. I have to prove it with my own person and that is where kneeling I ask my Lord to increase my Faith and to be able to support me with his will because I have several generations in my present from brothers, nephews, children, grandchildren. I thank GOD for you to bless you and not to faint in your preaching. Christian hugs my beloved brothers.
What beautiful words, Abel! It really is a blessing to wake up every day with a message of hope and remember the goodness of our God. And as you mention, it is important that as Christians, we set an example for our family and all the generations that surround us, so that they can also know the love and salvation of God. That is why we must ask our Lord to increase our faith and sustain us with his will, as Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions in his devotional: "Send me." We must be willing to be his messengers and take his Word to all those around us. May the Lord bless you and your family, and give you the strength and wisdom you need to continue on your Christian journey. Christian hugs to you too, brother!
Gustavo Martinez Afanador : As Paul said, the good fight had to be fought and the Christian should do it in the field where souls are in need of resting their souls from the heavy load of sin. The Lord prepares us for that war and also not to be indifferent to God's call. Blessings
Thanks for your comment, Gustavo! You are absolutely right, as Christians we must be willing to fight the good fight and take the Word of God to those who still do not know it, as Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions in his devotional: "Here I am; send me." . It is important to remember that the Lord prepares us for this spiritual warfare and gives us the necessary wisdom and strength to face it. And as you mention, we must not be indifferent to God's call and always be attentive to his will. May the Lord bless you and give you the courage and love necessary to continue on this important mission of bringing his love and salvation to all souls in need. Blessings to you too, brother!

God bless you all who with care and effort and dedication take your time to be a blessing to many lives. Blessings to all.
Thanks for your words Oscar! It really is a blessing to be able to share the Word of God and know that it can be of help and blessing to many people, as you well mention.

Enrique Meneses Muñoz : Every day I talk about CHRIST to several people, and I hope to continue doing so. Amen.
What a beautiful testimony, Enrique! It truly is a blessing to be able to share the love and salvation of Christ with those around us, as Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions in his devotional: "Here I am; send me." And it is important to continue to do so, without giving up, so that more and more people can know the love and grace of our Savior.

Rosa María : That's right Amen, Let's go out! Let's get up from our comfortable chair and go share the Gospel of Christ, He calls us His workers. We Christians are shining light for those who are in darkness. Then he said to his disciples: Truly the harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. “Pray therefore to the Lord of the harvest, that I may send out laborers into his harvest” (Matthew 9:35–38). JESUS ​​CHRIST said: "Go into all the world; preach the gospel to every creature" (Mark 16.15). Amen God bless you 😇
Amen, Rosa Maria! Your words are an inspiring and challenging call for all Christians. It is true that as children of God, we are called to be workers in his harvest, to bring the light of Christ to those who are in darkness. The biblical quotes you mention, Matthew 9:35-38 and Mark 16:15, remind us of the importance and urgency of preaching the gospel to every creature. It is our duty as followers of Christ to share his love and message of salvation with the world. May the Lord give us the courage and passion to rise from our comfort and go out to fulfill his mandate. May we be instruments in his hands to bring hope and light to those who need it. God bless you richly, Rosa María, and may your life be a living testimony of the love and power of Jesus Christ. A hug in Christ!
