Romans 1:16
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.
Inspiration.
The gospel ( the good news of salvation) is for everyone.
First the Jews were to take the gospel message to the nations around, the whole world (Greeks means gentiles – anyone who is non Jew.)
But the Jews failed because they did not go and tell others, – and take the gospel to the entire world, so now all Christian people need to tell others of the Plan of Salvation that leads to life eternal.
As Jesus says,
” Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” Matthew 28:20
” Teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you, and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:20
Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. To every kindred, tongue and people, and then the end will come.
” And this gospel of the Kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all nations, and then the end will come.” Matthew 24:14
When every person on earth have heard the good news of salvation, then the end will come.
It is our duty as Christians to tell others- tell the Jews and the Gentiles ( every people, tongue, tribe, kindred) the ” good news” – the gospel message of God’s saving grace for all people.
Prayer (for you)
Eternal God,
Thank You for Your Plan of salvation, ” the gospel message of salvation that is for every person, every language, every nation, every tribe.
I am so glad to be a Christian, a follower of Jesus.
Please help me to be pleasing to You, and tell others of Your amazing grace and sacrifice of love to save us, Your creation from sin.
O Lord, I know that of myself I cannot save anyone, only Jesus can save to the uttermost anyone who believes and accepts His free gift of salvation.
Dear Lord, all that You ask of me as a Christian is to tell them that You love them, died to save them, and that You are coming back to receive everyone who have accepted You as their Saviour and Lord.
Please give me the courage to tell others, because that is what You ask us as Christians to do.
I want to be pleasing to You, please help me I pray.
As the song says,
Tell them, even if they don’t believe you, tell them even if they don’t receive you.
Tell them that I love them, and I came to let them know.
They don’ even know that I care for them, that I love them, and I died to save them.
And I will come again to receive my redeemed, so that where I am there you will be also.
Lord Jesus, help me to tell them for You.
Tell someone – any nation, kindred, tongue and people.
And You will save anyone who accepts Your salvation so rich and free.
In Your precious name, I pray. Amen.
