An ambassador refers to an official envoy, especially a diplomatic agent accredited to a foreign government or one who is sovereign as the resident representative of his own government. Now, being the legal representative of his country in a foreign nation, all the resources he needs to function—his accommodation, clothing, equipment, money, etc.—are fully provided by his government. It makes no difference how bad the economic situation of his host nation is; he relies on his home government.
Now, the Word of God describes us as “ambassadors” for Christ; we’re diplomats from heaven, for we’re citizens of the beloved country of Zion: “For our citizenship is in heaven...” (Philippians 3:20). You’re not of this world! The Lord has called you and separated you from the world; you’re from above. Thus, you’re living in this world as an ambassador of heaven, just like an earthly ambassador lives in the country of his posting.
As a heavenly ambassador, you’re open to enjoying all the wonderful privileges of your heavenly Kingdom. Refuse to toil and struggle like the people of the world, for you belong in God’s Kingdom. You have a blood-bought right to live the good life. Hallelujah!
Prayer
I’m an ambassador of Christ, a legal representative of God’s Kingdom. The Lord has called me and separated me from the world; I’m from above. I refuse to toil and struggle like the people of the world, for I belong in God’s Kingdom, where I enjoy the full blessings and privileges of my kingdom inheritance. Hallelujah!
