Theme for the Week: NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL
Reading: Mark 8:34-38
Mark 8:38 (KJV)
Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
In today's passage, Jesus Christ gives us two alternatives to choose from. We can be bold to acknowledge now in this life and be acknowledged by Him in eternity; or ashamed to acknowledge Him and He shall also be ashamed to mention us in His Father's glory before the angels.
It is good that you accumulate wealth, but it is best to accumulate wealth in Jesus Christ. Since you will not be ashamed of letting others know your wealth, why are you ashamed to proclaim the gospel of Jesus?
Dear brethren, do not let the pleasure of enjoying what you accumulate here makes you lose focus on eternity. Just us we can talk of our wealth before others, let us also talk of the Gospel of Jesus.
Hallelujah!
Let's Pray:
Heavenly Father, we thank You. Lord, may we be bold to proclaim the gospel wherever You place us, in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
