FRIDAY OCTOBER 18TH Pastor Chris Oyakhilome PhD Theme: Fuel Your Passion For The Gospel! Scriptural Ref: Romans 12:11 AMP Never lag in zeal and in earnest endeavour; be aglow and burning with the Spirit, serving the Lord (Romans 12:11 AMP). The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the only saving message for the world, and you’re a custodian of this life-changing message. It’s the message of power by which God saves, heals, protects, delivers, preserves, and prospers. In Romans 1:16-17, the Apostle Paul said, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.” Observe those beautiful, Spirit-inspired words carefully; it says, the Gospel is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believes. The Gospel isn’t one of the requirements nor part of God’s power for salvation, no! The Holy Spirit, penning down this truth through Paul, was absolute! The Gospel is God’s ONLY power to save man. You must be convinced about this and become passionate in your spirit for the Gospel. When you’re passionate about the Gospel it’ll impact those around you. Passion is like fire that must be fuelled, otherwise it’ll be extinguished. Therefore, you must fuel your passion for the Gospel. The Gospel of Christ must burn in your heart. Fuel your passion for the Gospel by talking and sharing it again and again! Talk and discuss the Gospel. Discuss with people of like passion: those who are equally fired up in their spirits for the Gospel. Don’t spend time on the wrong information that could dissipate your zeal; don’t spend time with those who have no passion for the Lord, and for the Gospel. Spend time in the Gospel! Keep talking the Word and of your love for Christ and His Kingdom. The more you talk about His kindness, goodness, love for the world, and His message of salvation, the more the fire of His love will burn in the quarters of your heart! PRAYER Dear Father, I thank you for making me a custodian of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, the only message that can save the sinner, and bring them out of darkness into the glorious life of righteousness! I thank you for counting me faithful and worthy to be a minister of reconciliation; I’m ministering the Gospel with power, to the unsaved around me today, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
