Title of the Message this Morning is:

Go With God’s Power

Week 2:

Main Idea:

Jesus doesn’t send us alone—He sends us with His authority, Spirit, and power, enabling us to move boldly and faithfully into the mission before us.

Prayer:

“Lord Jesus, thank You that You never send us alone.

You go before us, You go with us, and You empower us by Your Spirit.

Give us boldness where we are timid, faith where we doubt, and courage where we feel weak.

Send us into the harvest field with Your power and Your love.”

Scripture: Luke 10:1–20, Acts 1:8

Introduction

Last week, we discovered that Jesus calls ordinary people—people like you and me—to carry out His extraordinary mission.

We talked about how He doesn’t wait for us to get our act together before He calls us.

He calls us as we are and then sends us out to be His representatives in the world.

But if we’re honest, many of us left last week thinking, ‘Okay… but what if I’m not ready?

What if I don’t have what it takes?

What if I try to step out in faith and totally blow it?’

Or maybe you tried this past week to engage others, to live a called and commissioned life and you’re left thinking, “Well that didn’t go very well.”

I think the disciples probably felt the same way.

Imagine being there when Jesus said,

‘I’m sending you out like lambs among wolves’ (Luke 10:3).

That’s not exactly a confidence boost!

And yet, Jesus sends them anyway—because He knows something they don’t know yet:

He’s not sending them alone.

That’s what this week is all about.

Jesus doesn’t just commission us; He empowers us.

He doesn’t just give us a mission; He gives us His authority.

He doesn’t just tell us to go; He promises to go with us.

In Luke 10, we see Jesus send out seventy-two followers—ordinary men and women—into villages to proclaim the kingdom of God.

And when they return, they are full of joy, amazed at what God did through them.

That same power, that same Spirit, and that same authority is available to us today.

So here’s the big question for us this week:

What would change in your life if you truly believed that the power of God goes with you wherever you go?”

Main Teaching

[Read Luke 10:1–4, 8–9, 17–20]

“After this the Lord appointed seventy-two others and sent them two by two ahead of him to every town and place where he was about to go. He told them, ‘The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.

Go! I am sending you out like lambs among wolves…  … When you enter a town and are welcomed, eat what is offered to you. Heal the sick who are there and tell them, "The kingdom of God has come near to you."

 … *The seventy-two returned with joy and said, "Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name." He replied, *‘I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. I have given you authority… Nothing will harm you. However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.’”

Point 1: The Mission is Urgent

“The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.” — Matthew 9:37

When Jesus looked at the crowds, He didn’t just see people—He saw souls.

He saw their brokenness, their searching hearts, their longing for hope, and His response wasn’t casual observation; it was compassion mixed with urgency.

In John 4:35, He tells us:

“Open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest.”

He’s saying, “Don’t wait.

Don’t assume there’s more time.

The moment is now.”

The problem isn’t that the world isn’t ready—the problem is that too few are willing to go.

People are longing for hope, searching for meaning, waiting for someone to point them to Jesus.

Paul reinforces this in Romans 10:14:

“How can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard?”

The mission is urgent, and it’s personal.

Look around you this week: maybe a family member is struggling quietly, a coworker is wrestling with questions, a neighbor feels invisible, or a classmate carries more than they can handle.

The harvest isn’t “out there” somewhere—it’s right where God has placed you.

And the call is the same for you today: step into it with courage and faith.

When we see the urgency, it changes everything.

We stop waiting for the “perfect moment” or the “right conditions” and start trusting that God can use us right now—exactly where we are—for His kingdom purposes.

Faith Vision is going around the World with the gospel of Christ.

Point 2: The Mission is Dangerous

“I am sending you out like lambs among wolves.” — Luke 10:3

Jesus doesn’t sugarcoat it.

Following Him isn’t a safe, comfortable path.

Being His witness, living on mission, means there will be challenges, resistance, even opposition.

The world doesn’t always welcome the message of the kingdom.

There will be moments when you feel vulnerable, unprepared, and, honestly, scared.

But here’s the good news: while the mission is dangerous, the authority is divine.

Acts 1:8 reminds us:

“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”

The Spirit doesn’t just show up to comfort us —

He empowers us to act boldly, to speak truth with courage, and to trust God’s plan in the face of opposition.

Paul puts it another way in 2 Corinthians 12:9:

“My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”

That’s the secret: courage in mission doesn’t come from self-confidence or your own strength.

It comes from God-confidence.

You may feel like a lamb, small and defenseless, but you are sent with the authority of the Shepherd.

You don’t have to carry the weight alone.

Wherever God places you this week—whether it’s a conversation with a coworker, a moment to forgive someone who hurt you, or standing up for truth in a difficult situation—He has already equipped you.

So the danger isn’t a signal to back down; it’s a signal to lean into Him, step forward in faith, and trust His power to work through you.

The mission may feel risky, but the One who sends you is stronger than anything you will ever face.

Point 3: The Mission is Empowered

When the seventy-two returned from their mission, they were astonished.

They said,

“Even the demons submit to us in your name!”(Luke 10:17).

Notice the key phrase: “in your name.”

The power was never theirs—it was God’s.

Their effectiveness wasn’t rooted in skill, strategy, or strength; it was rooted in Christ’s presence and authority.

Jesus reminds them not to get caught up in what they were able to accomplish, but to celebrate what God had already done.

He said,

“Rejoice that your names are written in heaven” (Luke 10:20).

The ultimate joy comes not from power or success, but from being in the hands of the One who is already victorious.

Paul puts it beautifully in

Ephesians 3:20:

“Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us.”

And in Philippians 4:13, he says it even more personally:

“I can do all this through him who gives me strength.”

Here’s the application: when you step out in faith, you’re not relying on your own power.

You are carrying Christ’s presence, Christ’s Spirit, and Christ’s authority.

That’s why you can be bold.

That’s why you can move forward even when the mission is risky.

That’s why you can show courage in places where the world expects fear, love where it expects hostility, and hope where there’s only despair.

Think about this week: the meetings you attend, the classrooms you sit in, the conversations that feel uncomfortable, the relationships that need healing—you don’t go alone, and you don’t go powerless.

Christ goes with you, in His name, and His power is already at work through you.

Conclusion

So what are we learning from Jesus in Luke 10?

First, the mission is urgent—the harvest is ripe, and people are waiting for someone to bring hope.

Don’t wait for the perfect moment or for the conditions to feel just right.

The opportunity is right in front of you, and God has placed you there for a reason.

Second, the mission is dangerous—following Jesus isn’t always safe or comfortable.

But here’s the hope:

He doesn’t send us alone.

The authority of Christ and the power of the Spirit go with us.

Courage doesn’t come from our own strength; it comes from God-confidence, trusting that He equips us for every situation.

Third, the mission is empowered—everything we do in His name flows from Christ’s presence, Spirit, and authority.

Like the seventy-two, when we step out in obedience, we can witness incredible fruit and return with joy.

We don’t act in our own power; we act as God’s representatives, carrying His kingdom into the world.

This week, ask yourself: where is God calling you to step out?

Maybe it’s praying with someone rather than just offering to pray.

Maybe it’s sharing a word of hope with a friend.

Maybe it’s serving someone sacrificially without expecting recognition.

And as you do it, remember: you go with His authority, His Spirit, and His power.

This coming week add your calling and commission to the empowerment you have in His Spirit and see what might happen.

See what adventures the Lord might take you on.

Here’s the exciting part: stepping out in obedience always leads us closer to the heart of Jesus.

Next week, we’ll see that being sent by Him isn’t just about action—it’s about posture.

We’ll discover that true influence flows from humility and love in action, as Jesus teaches us what it really means to be sent to serve.

So step into the week ready to go, ready to trust, and ready to act—not in your own power, but in His.

Let’s pray together.

Salvation:

The Word of God says in: John 3:16

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

Romans 10:13 NKJV

For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

If you’d would like to receive Jesus today, please pray this prayer with all of us:

Lord I believe that Jesus is the Son of God, and that He died On the cross for my sins and His resurrection from the dead gives me eternal life. I ask forgiveness of my sins, and I accept Jesus as my Lord and Savior. Amen.

I want to take a few moments to give you the opportunity to ask forgiveness of any sin in your life.

Let us pray over the elements (Cross Exposed) in the name of the father, the son, and the Holy Ghost

Read first Corinthians 11:23- 26 - (Taking the elements together)

23 For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread;

24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” (take bread)

25 In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.” (Take Cup)

26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death till He comes.
