It can be hard to share our faith with others. Sometimes it’s because of our own insecurity, and sometimes it’s the result of spiritual forces opposed to the gospel working in the world. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, we’ve been empowered to overcome our internal struggle as well as the forces of darkness to bring the light of the gospel to the world around us.
The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the greatest news of hope for a broken world. Jesus entrusted this message to his followers to share amongst their friends, communities and throughout the world, and if you’re a Christian, you believe because someone shared the gospel with you. With news this good and an assignment so clear, why don’t we share the gospel more often?
When we look at the state of our world, it can be tempting to question God. Why do some believe and others not? Why do some people seem more blessed than others? We can forget that the things we witness and perceive are just a tiny sliver of God’s plan for humanity from the beginning of time. When the Bible gives us a glimpse of the depths of God’s design, and we humbly stand in awe of His love for us, the only right response is to offer the praise and worship He rightfully deserves.
God is faithful and always keeps His promises. Throughout the history of the nation of Israel, God has been working His plan of salvation through His chosen people. Even when it seems like the people in our lives might be beyond the reach of faith, God shows His power to reach even the hardest of hearts.
God has entrusted His most important message - the gospel - to His most loved creation - humanity. The call to share the good news about Jesus Christ is for all Christians, not just pastors or church workers. Who is God giving you the opportunity to share good news with today?
God’s free gift of grace through Jesus Christ is available to everyone. As a gift, it’s not something we need to work for. We simply confess - or agree - that Jesus is Lord through his death and resurrection, and we can experience salvation. “For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
For two-thousand years, the world has struggled with what to do with the gospel message of salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. Some embrace it as the ultimate hope, but others who come from other religious contexts have a hard time understanding that faith - not works - is how we’re reconciled to God. What do you believe about Jesus? And if Jesus is your Lord, have you shared the good news about him with others?
God is in control. Even when this world seems chaotic or out of control, God is working to fulfill His plans. He never lacks a plan or the power to complete that plan. We may not always understand why God works the way He does, but we can trust that He is at work in our lives and His plan is good.
Through God’s divine plan, we can be welcomed into His spiritual family. Beginning with Abraham, God orchestrated his plan for salvation through His chosen people, making a way for all to be saved through faith in Jesus Christ.
As believers in Jesus Christ, we have a relationship with him that is eternally secure. No matter what hardships or trials come our way, we can rest in the promise that we are forever children of God and destined for a life with Him forever.
