Good News Today

Ephesians 1:13 And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit.

Friends, the good news today says THE WORD OF GOD PROVIDES US IMMEDIATE TRANSFORMATION.

Yesterday (September 7, 2023) during our online Bible Study being spearheaded by NYCC, Ptr Ding Marco presented five very important things about the Word of God (I.e. the basis of the gospel, its benefits, the burden to share the gospel, it’s beauty and the bond of the gospel). I was inspired by Ptr Ding’s exhortation so today, I’m writing something about the “benefits of the Word of God” which include: immediate transformation, preservation, and eternal destination.

God has given us wonderful benefits of the Gospel- forgiveness, righteousness, healing, peace, and victory. But for it to be activated in our lives, we must believe it. God has done His part. Now we must do ours.

Some of that transformation in our life is immediate (on our behavior, the way we talk, our actions, how we love, our faith and purity), but not everything will be revealed, yet. Only when Christ returns will we see everything He has in store for us.

Friends, eternal life with Jesus starts the minute we ask Him into our lives.

God bless us all. Let’s keep the faith.
