Today's Devotion:
"USE the GOSPEL"
A man had read where Jesus said to not
doubt in his heart; then he could say to
the mountain, "Be thou removed and be
thou cast into the sea." (Mark 11:23)
The man was working on a road crew,
and asked God to move the mountain.
Next morning, it was STILL THERE.
He asked God, "WHY?"
God said, "Well, I GAVE you a SHOVEL!"
_______SCRIPTURE___________
1Thess. 1:5-7
5 For our gospel came not unto you in
word only, but also in power, and in the
Holy Ghost, and in much assurance, as
ye know what manner of men we were
among you for your sake.
6 And ye became followers of us, and of
the Lord, having received the word in
much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost:
7 So that ye were ensamples to all that
believe in Macedonia and Achaia.
KJV
_______THOUGHT____________
The Gospel of Jesus is not only what He
HAS DONE; and, it is not only the promises
of what He WILL DO.
Christian, the Gospel also includes what
Jesus has done and is doing IN YOU!
When Jesus saves a person, it is by the
POWER of God's Holy Spirit that WORKS
with the Word in "much AFFLICTION!"
What kind of Christian are YOU, "AMONG"
others? (See verse 5 in the text above)
When a Christian gives testimony to his/her
salvation, God USES Holy Spirit CONVICTION!
THEN, the Gospel not only INFORMS, but,
when believed, it TRANSFORMS!
Jesus said in Acts 1:8, "But ye shall receive
POWER, after that the Holy Ghost is come
upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto
me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and
in Samaria, and unto the UTTERMOST part
of the earth."
The MAIN reason why millions are not being
saved today, is because many Christians
are not USING THE SHOVEL!!
Christian, if you have HEARD and BELIEVED
the Gospel of Jesus, REPENTED of sin and
COMMITTED your life to Christ, then --
HERE IS YOUR SHOVEL!!
Tell others about what God HAS DONE, and
IS DOING in YOU!!
USE the GOSPEL!
Love ya!
