A Gospel Day
TOPIC:A GOSPEL DAY
Read Acts 10:39-43
MEMORISE
Therefore let it be known to you that the salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles, and they will hear it! (Acts 28:28).
EXPOSITION
The death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ emboldened His disciples, and by extension, the Church today, to speak up about our Messiah, Jesus Christ. The power and authority to speak with confidence for and about Christ was finally released after His death.
The story of His death and resurrection was told confidently and the powers that be were unable to stop them from witnessing. They boldly challenged false doctrines, and could not be stopped. Those who denied His resurrection could not sustain their falsehood, because the truth was told aloud and confidently with the authority and power of the Holy Spirit. The enemies' efforts and antics were ineffective and inefficient to hinder the great wonderful story.
Our text today emanates from the extemporaneous message that Apostle Peter preached in the house of Cornelius. He used the opportunity to highlight the indispensability of Jesus Christ the impartiality of God and the need for everyone - Jews and Gentiles to accept Jesus Christ as the gift of God and they became witnesses of Jesus Christ.
As the Samaritan woman at the well used her first contact with Christ as a "Gospel Day", Christians should see each day as an opportunity for the spread of the gospel. The gospel points to Christ as the way to the Father; Giver of eternal life (Acts 26:22-29).
Speak aloud that He is the Messiah and the world will accept it as promised in Acts 28:28. He has given you yet another grace to preach today. How do you want to use it? Nothing can be so rewarding than the time we use for God, especially to reveal the power of His gospel to those who are ignorant of the truth. May God help us.
PRAYER POINTS
1. I receive the power to witness the Gospel of Christ more powerfully and assiduously, in Jesus' name.
2. Father, we commit the souls that are yet to know and accept Christ into Your hands; Oh Lord, save them.
3. Lord, help the Gospel ministers to prioritise the message of the Cross over and against the " prosperity gospel" and mere motivational sermons.
