“…and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen†(Matthew 28:20b).
In the Great Commission we have learned Who is making the command and all about that command, but Jesus attached a promise to it that would help motivate us to spread the gospel. He assured His followers then, as well as today, they would not embark on their mission alone. He gave the promise of being with them always unto the end of the age or the world. This tells me our mission won’t be over until His return for us. Wherever we go to take the good news of the gospel, He will be there for comfort and support. He knew there would be times when carrying out His command might bring adversity. In spite of anything we may encounter to promote the gospel, Jesus is going to be with us…..always.
