TELL IT EVERYWHERE......
PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned (Mark 16:15-16).
In Psalm 67:2 TLB, David passionately prayed to the Lord, āSend us around the world with the news of your saving power and your eternal plan for all mankind.ā Davidās prophetic desire is today fulfilled in the words of the Master that we read in our opening verse. Heās charged us to go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature; tell the Gospel story everywhere.
Intensify your efforts in reaching the lost, in telling theuntold about Christ and His eternal plan of salvation for all mankind. Only through Him can men be saved and brought into Godās class of being and realm of life.
Until and unless a man is born again, his life will be empty and meaningless. But in Christ Jesus, anyone who believes is brought into oneness with God, into a life thatās beyond the earthly plane, where youāre not limited by any factor or the elements of this world. You become a partaker of the divine nature, no longer subject to sin, sickness, disease and death, because you received the God-life.
Thatās the message He wants us to herald to the world. Tell it everywhere that Jesus came, lived, died and resurrected so that we may have His life, and also be the dispensers of that life. Tell the nations and the farthest islands that He lives, and the life He brought is available to everyone: āā¦and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath lifeā¦ā (1 John 5:11-12).
Be strengthened in your spirit, and propelled to tell the world that the Lord Jesus has brought life and immortality to light through the Gospel. Anyone whoās born again receives the same life with Him. Glorious news! Letās tell it everywhere. Hallelujah!
PRAYER:
Dear Lord, thank you for the glorious light of the Gospel that shines into the hearts of sinners all over the world today, turning them from darkness to light, to experience the full blessings of their salvation in Christ, in Jesusā Name. Amen.

2 Corinthians 5:18-2
And all things [are] of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech [you] by us: we pray [you] in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.
Romans 10:14-15
How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? 15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
