Responsibilities in Relation to the Gospel - Day 5: Entrusted With Good News
Day 5: Entrusted With Good News
Reading: Ephesians 2:8-9 and 2 Corinthians 5:17-20
Devotional:
The Gospel did not originate with us. We did not invent it, earn it, or improve it. God entrusted it to us. Paul writes in Ephesians 2 that salvation is entirely the gift of God, not of works, so that no one can claim credit for it. That same Gospel has been placed into the hands of every believer as a message to carry forward. We are, as Paul writes in 2 Corinthians 5, ambassadors of reconciliation. The question is not whether the Gospel is powerful enough to save. It is. The question is whether we are faithful enough to share it. Recognize it. Defend it. Celebrate it. Then tell someone.
Practical Application:
Identify one person in your life who has not heard the Gospel clearly. Pray for them by name each day this week, and ask God to open a door for you to share what Christ has done.
