Over the last several weeks, all we seem to be hearing is bad news - one thing after another. Every time you turn on the news or just go online, you see more bad news. I woke up one morning thinking, “I just want to hear some good news!” So, I started studying the Word of God. I came across this scripture in Romans 1:16:

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes. 

That word gospel, when translated, means “good news”. In other words, the Word of God (the gospel of God) is good news! Glory to God!  

Do you need some good news today? Go to the word of God. So, let’s rewrite this scripture with the translation brought forth in Romans 1:16: 

For I am not ashamed of the “good news” of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes.

God’s Word is the good news, and that good news brings forth power! 

What kind of power does that Word bring? Saving power! The Word saves us from hell and into heaven for eternity. But it does not stop there! Praise God! Salvation is much more than just escaping a lifetime in hell with Satan, salvation covers all areas of life! In the salvation of God, we are saved from lack, sickness, and lack of peace. The good news is, if you have made Jesus your Lord and Savior, you are saved from the curse and are seated in His blessings. That is the good news that brings forth power in your life! God’s word of good news brings forth this saving power.

The only three requirements for this good news and power in your life is believing in Jesus, accepting Him as your savior, and believing in His Word. That’s it! So, let's believe and proclaim the good news everywhere we go! Don’t get on social media and proclaim all the bad news. Get on social media and proclaim the good news! Proclaim God’s Word and edify each other!

I challenge you, Champions 4 Christ! Be the answer to all the questions by bringing forth the good news of the Word of God. Choose to rise above all the bad news that is going out and speak the good news of His Word. The more we bring forth the good news, the more power the body of Christ will operate in.

Father, I lift up our partners and friends to You today, and I believe in Your Word and Your promises found in it. I speak health, prosperity, peace, and joy over our partners. I thank You, Lord, that they are protected by Your blood and they are surrounded in Your love. I believe that right now wisdom and revelation knowledge is going forth for every purpose that is at hand and they will know what to do and how to react during these times and I believe the good news of your word will manifest in their life on a greater level than ever before.  I thank you Lord, for each and every one of them and ask for your blessing to be upon them in Jesus name.
