RIGHTEOUSNESS

  RIGHTEOUSNESS 2 Corinthians 5:14-21  Devotional:- “For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” (V. 21) NKJV It is because of the love of God that we are called the people of God today (Romans 9:25). This has created an eternal problem for the devil. In the Old Testament, many people tried to please God, but they were not able, and this brought destruction upon them. The Bible mentioned that Jesus, when He died, went to hell to free the saints (1 Peter 3:19). These are men who had lived all their lives to obey the law, yet were not able to reach the mark of righteousness. Today, the righteousness they were not able to attain, we have effortlessly attained. This is not because we are better than they were, but because we are children born in due season. This is the righteousness referred to in the scripture as imputed righteousness (Romans 4:6-8). This righteousness is given to us through faith in the Lord Jesus Chri...

PREACH THE GOSPEL

PREACH THE GOSPEL

Scripture Reading: 2 Timothy 4:1-8
Devotional:- “Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching” (V. 2). 

    The lives of God’s vessel unto honour must preach the gospel. We must be careful in our generation not to become too self-focus and neglect the preaching of the gospel. Whenever I hear someone preaching I am always thankful to God. This is because, people need to keep hearing the gospel to believe (Romans 10:14).

The word of God says; the preaching of the gospel is the power of God to save people (Romans 1:16). Please remember as children of God that we are not admonished or encouraged but commanded (Matthew 28:19-20). Please, know that preaching the gospel is witnessing for Christ. It is also declaring the word in power for the salvation of souls 

Sometime, it is not our message that saves souls, but it is the Holy Spirit that uses it to create a lasting effect to penetrate into the souls of people. It is a privilege to be chosen in the agenda of God to use us for the gospel. That is why, we must not be too concerned about who care to hear or not. God can use our weak voice to win the most stubborn. We must tell the world that Jesus died to pay for their salvation from the destruction of the devil. All that man needs to do is to accept the finished work of the cross and the Holy Spirit will save them. This is our message and this is the gospel. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to step out and preach the gospel

“IF THERE IS NO GOSPEL, THERE WILL BE NO SALVATION”.
