17 Tishri 5766 Taking Charge of HIS Gospel!
2 Thessalonians 2:14-17 NIV
He called you to this through our gospel, that you might share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. So then, brothers, stand firm and hold to the teachings we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or by letter. May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word.
As the Apostle Paul was writing this 2nd letter to the Believers in Christ at Thessalonica, most assuredly he was explaining their duties and responsibilities to God the Father as HIS mouthpiece for the continuing proclamation of the cherished gospel of Christ Jesus.
Have we not also been called by Jehovah God to labor in this same calling?
For centuries, since Paul's writings, countless numbers of Believers in Christ have taken charge of their own destiny concerning the revelation and teachings which embody the Gospel of Christ.
Therefore, we must now take assessment of our own duties and responsibilities, complying faithfully and obediently with HIS calling, both living victoriously in HIM as testimony of HIS Grace and boldly speaking HIS WORD as clear evidence to the empowerment we possess through Holy Spirit!
Father, YOU are so good to me,
as each day passes, I REJOICE!
As I stand firm in YOUR calling,
knowing that YOU guide my way,
in YOUR paths of Righteousness!!
May my journey in this life cross the pathways,
of those who are desparately seeking YOU,
the only TRUE PATH of Promise, HOPE and Eternal Life!!!
Hallelujah! Christ Jesus, my REDEEMER LIVES!! Amen!!!
