Good News


The jailer called for lights, rushed in and fell trembling before Paul and Silas. He then brought them out and asked, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?" They replied, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved - you and your household." Acts 16:29-31 Paul and Silas' reputation in Philippi was well known. When the jailer realized his own true condition and need, he risked everything to find the answer. The Christian Good News of salvation is simply expressed: Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved. When we recognize Jesus as Lord and trust in him with our entire life, salvation is assured to us. If you have never trusted in Jesus to save you, do so quickly. Your life will be filled with joy, just as the jailer's was. Take this good word home with you, and ask God to honor it. I will believe with you. Father, on the basis of your word, which says that "if two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven." I believe with you for the salvation of your family and for any other need that you may have. In Jesus name, Amen. God Bless you, J.H.
