The Bible ends with a powerful picture of hope. In Revelation 21:23, we’re told that in the new heaven and new earth, there will be no need for the sun or the moon, because the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp. For those who trust in Jesus Christ, this is our future. A perfect place where sin, suffering, and death no longer exist, and where we will live in the presence of God forever. This hope is possible because Jesus stepped into the darkness of our world, died on the cross for our sins, and rose again in victory. Darkness did not win. Jesus did.

But until that day, God calls us to live as people of the light who share the hope of the Gospel with others. Let’s tell those around us about Who Jesus is and what He has done for them! ________________________

The same God who spoke light into existence is still at work today. Second Corinthians 4:6 tells us that God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” now shines in our hearts through Jesus Christ. That light changes everything. When we trust in Christ, God opens our eyes, forgives our sin, and fills us with hope that lasts beyond this life. Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross for us turned spiritual darkness into living light. And for all those who place their trust in Jesus, He gives the gift of eternal life. He shines through us so others can see the truth of the Gospel.

Ask God to use your witness to point someone to Christ. Be ready to share the Gospel.

The Bible tells us in Colossians 1:13 that God “rescued us from the domain of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of His beloved Son.” That’s not just poetic language. It’s a rescue story. Through Jesus Christ, we are delivered from darkness and brought into the light of God’s kingdom. Jesus paid the penalty for our sins and secured our freedom. Darkness no longer has hold over us who have placed our trust in Jesus and Him alone. But there are many who don’t yet know the hope and forgiveness that Jesus offers. God calls us, as His ambassadors, to share this Good News with those who need the very Light of life that we have received.

Today, thank God for who He is and what He has done. Pray for opportunities to tell others about the salvation Jesus Christ offers. When God gives you those divine appointments, be prepared to share the Gospel!

Many people are searching for direction, unsure which way to go. In John 8:12, Jesus says, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” Jesus doesn’t just point us to light. He is the light. Through His death on the cross for our sins, He made a way for us to step out of darkness and into new life.

Following Christ doesn’t remove every challenge, but it gives us a sure guide and an eternal promise. When we place our trust in Him and Him alone, we can rest securely in this promise from Proverbs: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and He will make your paths straight.”

Today, let’s choose to trust and follow Jesus and look for opportunities to share the light of the Gospel with those around us.

The word "Gospel" translated from the original Greek literally means "good message" or "good news!" Well what has to happen in order to share good news? Well, we have to actually impart it to others.

You see, many Christians believe that they can share the Gospel merely through their actions. They do their best to live out what they believe. And that's wonderful! We absolutely should walk out our faith. We don't want to be a hypocrite that looks no different than the world. The Gospel’s changed us, Jesus has saved us, and we should live it out!

But we can't stop there. The message will be unclear—un-understood—if we don't take the time to tell others about it. First Peter two nine tells us, "But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light." So let's learn tell others the Good News!

How we think about the Gospel impacts firsthand if we share it or not. Do we really view it as Good News? What does the Gospel mean to us?

Well, when Jesus came back to Nazareth during His ministry, he visited the synagogue, where He read from the scroll of Isaiah. And Jesus then fulfilled the very prophecy he read: “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim Good News to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free.” When we acknowledge that the Gospel is the way to heal our land, bring freedom to captives, and give a treasure of matchless worth to the poor, our actions change quite dramatically.

So then let’s bring this Good News to the poor, sick, and hurting world around us. The Gospel is the answer. And it is Good News for all who hear it! ________________________

Years ago, my neighbor's wife asked him for a divorce. I saw how much he was hurting. So one night, I told him, “Bill, I put my trust in Jesus, and it completely changed my life.

It's the most important decision I've ever made. And Jesus can do impossible things—even heal broken marriages.” Bill looked at me and said, “Either you’re a liar, or you hate me.” Well, I was really taken back. He said, “You know, you’ve lived next to me for 5 years and never said anything about Jesus. If this really changed your life and can change mine, well then why haven’t you told me?”

I begged him for forgiveness—and then I shared with him about Jesus. Bill put his trust in Christ and it changed his life too. Let’s not to buy into the lie that no one wants to hear the Good News. The Gospel is powerful and essential.

John Piper said, "The Gospel is the Good News that the everlasting and ever-increasing joy of the never-boring, ever-satisfying Christ is ours freely and eternally by faith in the sin-forgiving death and hope-giving resurrection of Jesus Christ."

So why is it that nowadays there are many churches who act like this Good News isn’t that important to share? Well, many Christians have bought into the lie from the enemy that sharing will lead to angry confrontation. So we then neglect to share the very Good News that has changed our lives. We convince ourselves that no one wants to hear it. Well, let me encourage you with this today: I’ve shared the Gospel worldwide to people of all different backgrounds, cultures, and ages.

And very rarely have I had anyone react with anger. More often than not, the person I share with thanks me for taking the time to share.
