Encouragement

And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.” Mark 16:15

The Holy Spirit gives us the passion for preaching the gospel. My uncle Pete told me he used to preach to the cows in the paddock. Lol. Such was the zeal of His love for Jesus. Sometimes you could only have a small congregation or larger. Whoever you are able to preach to, sharing the gospel is worthwhile. There’s a fire that the Bible describes that you can’t hold back His Word. “If I say, “I will not mention him, or speak any more in his name,” there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with holding it in, and I cannot.” Jeremiah 20:9 Have you ever been encouraged in the Lord and that just energises you to live for Jesus. Encouragement gives courage to be that blessing in other’s lives, to go the extra mile and be a part of the answer in Christ.

Heavenly Father, thanks for your Word. I need your Holy Spirit to cause a passion to proclaim your gospel, amen.
