Memorise: “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” – Mark 16:15
READ: Mark 16:15-16
15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
Bible In One Year: Isaiah 1-3; Galatians 2
MESSAGE:
These days, the gospel should be preached more than ever before. If you are conversant with your Bible and you observe recent happenings, it will be obvious to you that we are in the end time. The devil knows that the end is very near, so he is doing everything possible to lure more people to hell, most Christians on the other hand are keeping quiet about their faith and many others are so relaxed that they are backsliding.
Believe me honestly, evangelizing is the main duty of a Christian. You were not saved just for yourself, you were saved so that you could evangelise to others. Your attitude in this end time should be like that of Apostle Paul who said “woe unto me if I preach not the gospel”. Many souls are perishing and in their way to hell, will you keep quiet and just watch them become victims of the devil’s lies? You may say ” They will not listen”. Just tell them anyway, you are not the one to convert them, that is God’s job; you are to preach and God will do the rest. According to 1 Corinthians 3:6, Paul planted, Appolos watered, God gave the increase. You just tell them about Jesus, your words will be a seed in their heart, then God will make that seed germinate.
Prayer Point:
Father, please give me the boldness to preach the gospel everyday.
Hymn 15:
1 Wonderful story of love;
Tell it to me again;
Wonderful story of love;
Wake the immortal strain!
Angels with rapture announce it,
Shepherds with wonder receive it;
Sinner, 0 won’t you believe It?
Wonderful story of love.
Chorus:
Wonderful! Wonderful!
Wonderful, Wonderful story of love.
2 Wonderful story of love,
Though you are far away;
Wonderful story of love;
Still He doth call today;
Calling from Calvary’s mountain,
Down from the crystal bright fountain,
E’en from the dawn of creation,
Wonderful story of love.
3 Wonderful story of love:
Jesus provides a rest;
Wonderful story of love;
For all the pure and blest,
Rest in those mansions above us,
With those who’ve gone on before us,
Singing the rapturous chorus,
Wonderful story of Love.
