Good News

I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Sunday morning, the 9th of March, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in the Book of Nahum 1:15: ” Behold, on the mountains the feet of him who brings good tidings, who proclaims peace!” Good news! We go to Romans 10:15: ” And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written :… ” Here we go again ”… How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things!” I remember when my second son was born. I was sitting in the hospital. In those days we never went in when the mother was having the baby and I waited for good news and the good news was that I had just had my second son born. Folks, I want to tell you, I got in my pick up and I drove home and I told all my staff on the farm, ”Today is good news. I’ve got a new baby boy. He is born and so everyone can have the day off.” And we had a celebration time. The good news is that Jesus Christ is alive, oh yes. He’s not a figment of our imagination. He is more real to me than you listening to this very message and the good news is we have to tell everybody. Yes, I know the bad news is when you see what is happening around the world and we have to be aware of that. We cannot be like the proverbial ostrich that hides his head in the sand, but on the other hand, we have good news! If you look at Hebrews 13:5, The Lord says: … “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” Isn’t that good news? And what about that young man whose business is struggling, that lady who doesn’t know when she’s going to get food to feed her children? The Lord says in Philippians 4:19: ” And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” That is good news. Now go out and tell people the good news. If Christ be for us, who can possibly stand against us? Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day, Goodbye.
