Precious Moments That Count For Eternity

DAY 197 OF 366

The Power of Plain Simple Words Apostle Paul had to leave Thessalonica, shortly after he started this infant church. The unbelieving Jews harassed him and drove him out of town. Paul wrote this letter, encouraging the young believers, assuring them of his love, praising them for their faithfulness, and reminding them of their hope in the sure return of their Lord. He exhorted them, mentioning how he and his team thanked God for them without ceasing, as they accepted, welcomed and believed the good news as the Word straight from God, and not from mere men. Hence, it was bearing fruit in their lives. This is what happens when we share the Good News; not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in the demonstration of the Spirit and of power (1 Corinthians 2:4). When I accepted Jesus, I was seeking Him for my daughter’s healing, which did not take place immediately. But in the process, through the Spirit of God, I came to know that Jesus is the way, the truth and the life. There was no way that I would leave the truth. Of course, I was not left alone. Someone prayed for me and led me to church. But it was not the words of men, rather the spirit and power of the Gospel that brought conviction to my heart. So today, when we share the plain simple Gospel, the Word Himself will set people - those who receive it gladly and believe in it - free. After all, the Gospel is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes (Romans 1:16). We must believe in the power of these plain, simple words. Then, like Paul, we can thank God for them without ceasing! Prayer Lord Jesus, as I share the Gospel with people, without adding or taking out any words from it, I believe that people will receive it as the Word straight from You, and will see the power of God working in them for their salvation! Amen.
