The Disciple Who Enjoys the Gospel

 

Romans 1:16~17 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”

  There are some believers who received tremendous shock after first encountering this amazing Gospel. They were able to concentrate for a time, but failed to continue because enjoying the Gospel continuously and continuously receiving answers through the Gospel were not taking place. Paul said that the Gospel was God’s power which gave salvation to everyone who believed. Then for you, who possess this amazing Gospel, what kind of answers must you continuously enjoy?

 

1. The Answer of Enjoying the Gospel
  If you look at yourself, the world, and your problems through the lens of “Only Christ,” God’s Kingdom, and the filling of the Holy Spirit at all times, you will discover important facts. You will experience the Gospel becoming deeply rooted and influencing your life. Through the answer of enjoying the Gospel, the answers of “only, uniqueness, re-creation” will be realized. Enjoying the Gospel will become your imprint, roots, and nature. One day, you will experience evangelism continuously taking place.

 

2. A Life that Enjoys the Gospel
  Knowing the Gospel means that you have become a completely new person. That is why you can discard your former scars, finances, and burdens because you can now enjoy the hidden answers of Acts 1:1, 3, and 8. But you must not be deceived by Satan who makes you think, “God hasn’t given that to me.” Without a doubt, God has given distinct strengths to each person, and you can discover this when you enjoy the Gospel, and very naturally the answers of “only, uniqueness, and re-creation” will take place.

 

3. An Evangelist Who Enjoys the Gospel
  Most people misunderstand evangelism. It takes place naturally when you enjoy the Gospel. If you enjoy the Gospel, then faith, hope and love which are the colors of the Gospel will become evident. You will see power, the Holy Spirit, and great assurance arise in your life. When you walk the path of the evangelist while holding onto this covenant, you will experience the evangelism that God, and not you, will do. You will confirm how this Gospel that you possess will save the people in your field. In other words, you will share the life that you have and enjoy in Jesus Christ with others.

 

[Prayer of the Evangelist] Dear God, may I continuously enjoy the Gospel that I have heard and know to be true. Let me be the evangelist who can deliver this Gospel, and may I stand as the main figure to save the church.

[Bible Reading] Luke 9

[Gospel Memory Verse] No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it. (1 Corinthians 10:13)
