The greatest commandment that Jesus received from the Father was to give eternal life to mankind, and He was perfect to carry this out throughout His earthly existence (John 3.16). In the same way, just as we must do the works that He did, we must also have as our greatest mission the salvation of people. For this to occur, we need to give God all that He moves us to offer. In this way, the lost will be redeemed.
The zeal for the house of God consumed the Savior, for the sheep pen – mankind – was in the devil´s hands, who needed to be defeated. Satan had to be stripped of all authority he had stolen from man, and his head, crushed (Genesis 3.15). The mission received from the Father was what moved Jesus (John 4.34). At every opportunity, the Savior led people to deliverance, healing, and the fullness of the Holy Spirit. Hallelujah!
We have nothing to do in the divine work but to offer eternal life to those lost in sins and trespasses. To do this, we need to be wise: My son, if your heart is wise, My heart will rejoice—indeed, I myself; (Proverbs 23.15). Seeking to know the Father’s will can make you a servant closely watched by Him. After all, for everyone to whom much is given, from him much will be required (Luke 12.48).
The baptism in the Holy Spirit equips us with the authority to lead the oppressed to freedom, and to accomplish the other things that touch the heart that is insensitive to the Lord’s issues: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives And recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed; To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.” (Luke 4.18,19).
Our learning from Scripture takes us closer to Jesus and together with Him and at His willingness, we are instructed and guided to perform His deeds and even greater ones (John 14.12). For the Son of Man came to seek and to save that which was lost (Luke 19.10). Keep this in mind and judge the work that has been proposed to you, but never depart from the order you have received.
Whoever understands the Father’s will, will not exchange it for the enemy’s offerings. The important thing is to be in Heaven’s plan; that way, you will not lack what is necessary to fulfill the Lord’s command to Go. The main mission of every child of God is to present the message of salvation to the lost, and there is no one to prevent those called by the Lord from fulfilling the order they have received.
Never stop talking about the biblical revelations, but it is essential to go through the three stages of the new birth: repentance, water baptism by immersion, and the baptism in the Holy Spirit. In submission to your leaders, set out to be an instrument of the Most High, without touching the glory that is His alone.
In Christ, with love,

God of eternal life! When sin entered the world, You saw Your beautiful original plan thwarted, but Your hands were not tied. You soon devised a new plan and gave Your only begotten Son the mission to die in our place!
In His death, Jesus paid the price for the redemption of mankind. However, even though they have the opportunity to save themselves from eternal punishment, some prefer to continue in sin. Mercy! Most have been deceived by the enemy! Save them, Father!
At the Savior's return, many will despair as they see their friends and family heading towards perdition. This should not happen, so we cry out for Your help, for if You touch their hearts - they will be saved. Amen!
