Psa 67:1-2

1 O God, in mercy bless us; let your face beam with joy as you look down at us.

2 Send us around the world with the news of your saving power and your eternal plan for all mankind. [TLB]

Whenever a king has an important message, it is natural that he sends it through an important servant or messenger.

Let us begin with God as an example. Throughout scriptures, Angel Gabriel is the one God sent important messages through, among the angels. Cardinal among these was the message to the virgin Mary that she would birth Jesus Christ.

We see another example in Abraham. Abraham needed to get a wife for his son Isaac; a woman chosen by God who would help establish the covenant given to Abraham. He sent Eliezer his eldest and favourite servant. (Gen 24:2;17:2). Paul wanted his parchments from Troas and he could send anyone, but he preferred Timothy (see 2 Tim 4:13). That was most likely why Paul enjoined Timothy to commit important things to faithful men (see 2 Tim 2:2). It is an act of mercy when God chooses any man as His minister. (1 Tim. 1:12)

What a privilege to be counted as one through whom the Lord sends His all-important message of salvation. (Mat. 28:18-20). We must be special in His eyes. Our main text says God's face beams with joy over the ones He sends.

As you share God's good news today, do it as one carrying a very important message.

Pray with the words of our main text: 'Send me O Lord with the news of Your saving power and Your eternal plan for mankind'.
