What Do I Say?

 

Today's verse is Mark 5:19

Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee. 

    A common excuse one might give for remaining silent is: “I don’t know what to say!” But the Psalmist has said, “I believe, therefore, have I spoken.” What has Jesus Christ done for you, from what has he redeemed you, What work has he done in you?” If you cannot answer these questions, first examine yourself, and determine if you have indeed entered into that most blessed of relationships, and have been covered by his blood, shed as he died for you on the Cross. For as he has risen from the dead, so has he also raised you up from your trespasses and sins and enabled you to live a righteous and holy life, by his Spirit. This is the core of your message, for this is what Jesus has done for you, and what he has done for you, He is willing to do for others. So, Speak up. Amen.

To God be the Glory
