The Power of The
Gospel
“Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed
to come unto you, (but was let hitherto,) that I might have some fruit among
you also, even as among other Gentiles. I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to
the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise. So, as much as in me is, I
am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also. For I am not
ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to
every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For therein
is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The
just shall live by faith.” (Romans 1:13-17)
Today’s Morsel: There has never been
anything that can change a person’s life like the power of the Gospel of Jesus
Christ. Just think of the number of people that you may know who were
alcoholics, drug abusers, drug dealers, abusive spouses, those with broken
marriages, suicidal, those trying to change their sexual identity, liars,
thieves, and so much more, who came in contact with Jesus Christ through the
gospel, they accepted what they heard, were baptized in Jesus name, received
the baptism of the Holy Ghost and their entire lives have been changed for the
better. It is as if they did a 180-degree turn around just by hearing
about Jesus. Paul wrote that he was not ashamed of the gospel of Christ
because it was the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believed.
A person's life can be turned upside down, but if they will accept the gospel,
their life can be made whole and new.
Sing: In this house, there is hope, in this
house, there’s salvation for your soul. In this house, your life can be
made whole, everything you need is in this house.
Thought For Today: Don’t ever be
ashamed to share the gospel.
