Are You Going with the Gospel? - Love Worth Finding - November 10

November 10, 2023 – Are You Going with the Gospel?
Genesis 45:9-13
Sermon: 2253 The Gospel According to Joseph, Part 2

Pray Over This

“Hurry and go up to my father, and say to him, ‘Thus says your son Joseph: “God has made me lord of all Egypt; come down to me, do not tarry. You shall dwell in the land of Goshen, and you shall be near to me, you and your children, your children’s children, your flocks and your herds, and all that you have. There I will provide for you, lest you and your household, and all that you have, come to poverty; for there are still five years of famine.”’ And behold, your eyes and the eyes of my brother Benjamin see that it is my mouth that speaks to you. So you shall tell my father of all my glory in Egypt, and of all that you have seen; and you shall hurry and bring my father down here.”
Genesis 45:9-13

Ponder This

All of the Gospel can be summed up in these two phrases, “Come unto me; Go ye into all the world.” That’s it. Jesus says, “Come to Me.” They came. He said, “All right. Now, go and tell others.” What right do we have to call ourselves children of God if we fail to obey Him? Our Lord has given us a Great Commission. We’re to go into all the world and share the Lord Jesus Christ.

A little boy had a toy car he got at Christmas. It wouldn’t work. His dad said, “What’s wrong with it?” He said, “I think the ‘go’ is broke.” I think that’s what’s wrong with the Church. We’re to go. To say that all Christians are missionaries is just another way of saying all Christians are Christians.

What are we to share? Number one, we once rejected Jesus. Number two, God has raised Him up on high. Number three, He has a name that is above every name. Number four, the world is now at His feet. Number five, He is the fairest of ten thousand. Number six, He has forgiven all of our sins. Number seven, He wants us to be with Him and to share His glory. That’s what they were to tell about Joseph, and that’s what we’re to tell about Jesus.

• Do you know how to share the Gospel? When was the last opportunity that you had to share it?
• Who are some people in your life that need the hope of the Gospel?

Practice This

Practice sharing the Gospel with a fellow Christian and then share that hope with someone else you know.
