First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because [the report of] your faith is made known to all the world and is commended everywhere.” Romans 1:8 AMP
The early church their faith was made known to all the world. How? Through the preaching of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Someone has to hear the gospel of grace entrusted us by our Lord Jesus Christ.
What is the gospel of Jesus Christ? Please read ( Isaiah 53:3-12 and Psalms 69:9-10). It has to do with Jesus Christ and nothing else.
Each member of the early church magnifies their office through the gospel of Jesus Christ irrespective of their normal day to day activities.
It was with this notion that Holy Spirit wrote a letter to us through apostle Paul, with Paul saying:”….He has a debt to pay or fulfill and that is preaching the gospel through every form in the name of Jesus.”
Both to Greeks and to barbarians (to the cultured and to the uncultured), both to the wise and the foolish, I have an obligation to discharge and a duty to perform and a debt to pay. So, for my part, I am willing and eagerly ready to preach the Gospel to you also who are in Rome.” Romans 1:14-15 AMP
It is time to arise and magnify our office by reaching out to our community in every possible way we can in Jesus Christ mighty Name.
Let’s pray together:
Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your word. Just like Paul the apostle in Jesus name I declare I will pay my debt by reaching out with the gospel of Jesus Christ in every way that I can in Jesus Christ mighty Name. Amen.
