Did You Hear the Good News?

Luke 2:10-11 (AMP) But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people. For this day in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord (the Messiah).

Do you remember when you first heard the Good News of Jesus Christ? Were you seeking something to fill an empty void in your life? Did you have an unexpected encounter with the Lord? Were you drawn to Him by your interactions with other believers whose witness lead you to desire to know Jesus for yourself? However you came to hear about the Good News of Jesus, be grateful that you have a heart that was ready to receive Him. There are many who hear the Good News, but it doesn’t take root in them because of their hardened hearts. The most they can claim is religion, but they don’t have a relationship with the Savior. You know that you’ve heard the Good News when you accept Jesus into your heart! Bless the Lord!
