The Bible Recap Reading: 2 Corinthians 10 - 13 The Bible Recap Podcast: Day 340 God has Good News of Great Joy for all People. The angel announced to the shepherds “good news of great joy that will be for all people.” (Luke 2:10 ESV). Good news. Great joy. For all people. That’s the wonderful proclamation of Christmas in a nutshell. The good news is that we have a Savior, Jesus Christ. And it is good news – not good advice or good teaching but good news. That means something happened. God came to us in the person of Jesus. He came into our real world, in a real place, and really lived among us, and really died for our sins and really rose from the dead. And He really offers us the free gift of salvation. It’s the best news! And it is news for all people. No one is outside the reach of God’s grace in Christ. All are welcome to come Jesus, no matter who you are, what you’ve done, or whatever your background – all are welcome to come to Jesus and receive His free gift of salvation. It is greatest gift that leads to the greatest joy – the joy of knowing Jesus, of living with hope, of being adopted into God’s family, and knowing your future is secure in heaven. “The angel said to them, ‘Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord’” (Luke 2:10–11 ESV). Prayer: Father, thank you for sending your Son to save me! Help me to always rejoice in my salvation – and give me the words and opportunity to tell others about the wonderful, free gift of salvation. In Jesus’ name, amen.
