Romans 1:16
I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, then to the Greek.
There is a difference between advice and power. Advice tells you what to do. Power actually does something. Paul had felt that difference personally. The gospel had not simply given him better information, it had changed him from the inside out. That is why he was not ashamed.
Folks do not hide something that works. Our deepest need has never been a better set of instructions. It has always been rescue. The gospel is God reaching into a life that cannot fix itself and doing what only He can do.
Stand in that. Be bold in that. The message you carry is not your opinion. It is the power of God.
I’m Lonnie Davis and these are thoughts worth thinking.
Suggested Prayer: Father, remind me daily that the gospel is Your power at work. Help me be bold and unashamed to share it.
