Can I Hope Again?

DAY 1 OF 6

Good News for Us

The gospel is good news for you. It’s also good news for us.

Paul, the author of Romans, was intentional when he said the gospel of Christ was God’s explosive power to save both Jewish and non-Jewish people alike. The church in Rome was experiencing friction between those two groups. You had some who were Jewish by lineage. They grew up holding to Old Testament customs and laws. This directly affected their view of being a follower of Jesus.

Then you had others who were Gentiles, or non-Jewish by heritage. They didn't understand the customs and rituals of their Jewish brothers and sisters. This led to some arguments, which turned into hurt feelings and began to boil over into division. Similarly, don't we see division all around us today? Yet Jesus wants us walking in unity as his people. In Him, we can be unified–even in a divided world.

The gospel is really good news.

The gospel is God’s message and mission that saves us as individuals and unites us as believers, no matter our cultural heritage, economic status, native language, sins we’ve committed, or any other outward difference. Transformation happens when the gospel enters a human life, marriage, home, or culture!

The gospel, my friend, is excellent news for us. As we unite around God's message and mission, we are compelled to carry His love for one another and hope for our broken, divided world.

As you engage with God’s Word:

● What is God saying to me?

● What does it mean to me?

● How can I apply what God is teaching me?

● How can I be specific in prayer today?

After you reflect on these questions, bring everything to God in prayer.
