Enlighten Everyone
Ephesians 3:9
The Upward Look
by Max D. Hutto,
“To me . . . this grace was given, to preach . . . Christ, and to bring to light for everyone what is the plan of the mystery hidden for ages in God, who created all things,” Ephesians 3:8-9 ESV
God had given Paul the task to preach God’s amazing plan to offer salvation to everyone through Christ. Paul was to enlighten, to make known, to explain the gospel to all people. Before He created the universe God had planned to send His Son to be the Savior. This gospel of grace had been hidden from previous generations until the coming of Christ. Now this good news must be shared with all people that Christ, the Light of the world, had come to a dark and needy world to bring salvation, hope, and joy.
Lord Jesus, during the Christmas season help me share with others this wonderful good news of great joy that Christ our Savior has come.
