SHARE THE GOOD NEWS I

Memorise:
I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation. .. Psalm 40:10

Read:
Mark 5:1-20

Message

When the Almighty God set the madman of Gadara free in today's Bible reading, He told him to tell other people about what God had done for him. As a result, the man began to go around, telling others about what Jesus Christ had done for him. One of the things God told me at one time was that I should tell His people that the more they testify, the more miracles they would get from Him. When God does something in your life, you should tell others about what He has done; do not keep the good news of His love and forgiveness to yourself. When the Samaritan woman who met Jesus by a well in Sychar encountered Jesus, she ran to tell everyone who would listen about her experience. She said, "Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?" (John 4:29).

A long time ago, I was going through a difficult time, and things were really tough for me. However, whenever people asked me how I was doing, I always told them that God was working overtime in taking care of me. I never stopped testifying of His goodness, and today, I am even bolder to say that God is working extra overtime to take care of me. I am never ashamed to share the good things that God has done for me.

But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. 2 Corinthians 4:3-4

People who worship idols invite others to join their cults by telling and showing them what they have received from the devil. They do not hide what they get from satan, even though his gifts always come with hidden and terrible consequences. The Scripture above tells us that if we hide the good news of the things that God has done for us, the people who are on the path of destruction will not receive salvation. When God does something in your life, you must not hide it; rather, share the testimony with other people unless He tells you otherwise. Tell your friends, co-workers, and neighbours about the goodness of the Lord this Easter season. Encourage them to taste and see that the Lord is good indeed (Psalm 34:8).

Bible In One Year:
2 Samuel 12-13

Hymn:
Jesus Loves Me! This I Know

Key Point:
If we do not share the good things that God has done for us, many people will remain under the devil's bondage.

RCCG Hymn

Jesus loves me ! this I know

  1. Jesus loves me! this I know.
    For the Bible tells me so;
    Little ones to Him belong;
    They are weak, but He is strong.

  2. Yes, Jesus loves me,
    Yes, Jesus loves me,
    Yes, Jesus loves me.
    The Bible tells me so.


  3. Jesus loves me He who died,
    Heaven's gate to open wide.
    He will wash away my sin,
    Let His little child come in.
  4. Jesus loves me, loves me still,
    Tho' I'm very weak and ill
    From His shining throne on high
    He will watch me where I lie.
  5. Jesus loves me He will stay
    Close beside me all the way,
    If I love Him when I die
    He will take me home on high.
