Verbalizing our Message

When Peter spoke in Cornelius’s home, he declared the truth of Jesus Christ — His life, death, and resurrection. He didn’t just demonstrate kindness; he proclaimed the message of salvation. As a result, the Holy Spirit fell on everyone listening.
 
Our world is filled with good deeds, but only the gospel saves. As believers, we are called to not just live differently but to speak boldly about the hope we have in Jesus.
 
Like Peter, we must point people not to ourselves but to the Savior. Our words, guided by the Spirit, can be the very tool God uses to draw someone into His kingdom.
 
Scripture:
Colossians 4:5-6 - Conduct yourselves with wisdom toward outsiders, making the most of the opportunity. Let your speech always be with grace, as though seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should respond to each person. 
 
Application:
Look for one opportunity this week to share your faith story or speak about Jesus with someone in your circle.
 
Prayer:
Jesus, give me boldness to share the hope of the gospel. Help me overcome fear and hesitation, trusting that Your Spirit will give me the words I need. Use my voice to point others toward You.
