WE HAVE GOOD NEWS​!​

Acts 8:35 – Devotional

Acts 8:35

“Philip began with that very passage of Scripture and told him the good news about Jesus.”

During the dark days of WWII, we lived near the Pacific Coast and were always on alert for a possible invasion. There were blackouts, rationing and stars in windows to signify that a son or daughter was in the service or had died in the war.

The world had just passed through the great depression and many families were still experiencing hard times. It was a time when we needed to hear words of hope and encouragement. Radio broadcaster Gabriel Heater brought hope as he started each broadcast by saying; “There’s good news tonight!” In the time of darkness and doubt good news was desperately needed.

In today’s Scripture a eunuch from Ethiopia was discouraged by his inability to understand a passage of Scripture from Isaiah 53. It was into this scene that Philip arrived and brought him the good news about Jesus.

With every dismal and depressing circumstance in our life we need to hear the good news of hope from God’s Word. That is the best news to a sin-sick world!

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
