The Lord gave the
word; Great was the company of those who proclaimed it. Psalm 68:11
When I ran across today’s
scripture the story of Paul Revere came to mind. As the story goes, he rode
through the streets of Concord Massachusetts announcing the “British are coming”, to warn
those of the British army’s intentions to attack. This announcement spread
through the community and the citizens were ready to defend their city.
From the beginning
of time until now, another enemy is on the prowl to attack all of mankind,
Satan (1
Peter 5:8). Sadly, many of the Paul Revere’s of Christianity remain
silent instead of warning those outside the faith that there is victory through
Jesus Christ! As today’s scripture says, the Lord gave us the word, Jesus
Christ, and those who have professed Him as their Savior, should be ready and
willing to share the good news of salvation (Matthew
28:19). Unless the announcement is made, people within your circle
of influence will remain unaware of the danger they live in and will remain
captive to Satan’s deceptions for all eternity.
Paul Revere risked
his life to warn others of pending doom. Jesus Christ has already won the
battle, it’s up to you to announce where victory can be found. Make that announcement
today and everyday through your life’s words and actions. God bless!
