“Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.” — 2 Corinthians 5:18-19 (NKJV)

As a believer in Christ Jesus, do you realize that you are a custodian of the message that can save many from a lifetime of misery and eternal damnation? Do you know that God has entrusted you with the responsibility to draw people away from eternal destruction? If you weren’t aware, I’m telling you now so you can become conscious of it and walk in that path. Sadly, many people are unaware of this truth, but it’s crucial that we take up this responsibility and begin to fulfill God’s will.

Many times, we become so consumed with our careers and family matters that we forget God is counting on us to fulfill His desire for the salvation of all mankind. This is why it’s important that wherever we go and in whatever we do, we remain conscious of this truth. At first, sharing the gospel might seem difficult, but people need this message of salvation.

You must put aside every excuse, snap out of any fear, and share the gospel with someone. Your boldness and willingness to speak up can save someone from eternal destruction. So, represent the Kingdom of God well and do what’s necessary. Remember, God has made you a custodian of the message that brings salvation to others—don’t hide it. Many are waiting for the light you carry. God bless you!

Today’s Rhema

The message that brings people salvation is right in your custody—spread it!
