Gospel Is Glad Tidings
Lk. 2:8-14
Many people love good news. It is only the wicked that are not happy at hearing good news about people. Good news, as the name implies, brings joy, happiness, laughter, satisfaction and motivation to do good. The Bible even says that as cold waters to a thirsty flower, so is Good News or Good Tidings from a far country (Prov. 25:25). The gospel of Jesus means Good News. If you want to have joy in place of sorrow, laughter in place of weeping, promotion in place of demotion or retrogression, then you need to receive and believe the gospel. If you already have the gospel with you, then extend it to people around you.
Point of Emphasis: I bring to you today good tidings of great joy (v. 10)
Prayer Point: Lord, I receive good news from You today. Make me good news personified all the days of my life.
