ARE YOU OPEN TO THE GOOD NEWS OF GOD; OF JESUS?

ARE YOU OPEN TO THE GOOD NEWS OF GOD; OF JESUS? A few years ago There was a saying Going around: “IT'S ALL GOOD” And that is the way It is with our God ALL the news is GOOD “IT'S ALL GOOD” For that is what Our God wants for you All good things “After John Was put in prison Jesus went into Galilee Preaching the good news Of God 'The TIME has come,' he said 'The KINGDOM of God Has come near Repent and BELIEVE THE GOOD NEWS'” Mark 1:14-15 The word of God IS LIFE The word of God Is LOVE The word of God Is TRUTH The bad things That happen to us In life Is usually due to The evil of other people Or just The circumstances of life “TASTE and see That the Lord Is GOOD Blessed is the one Who takes refuge In him” Psalm 34:8 “Whoever seeks GOOD FINDS FAVOR” Proverbs 11:27 There is something That we have to recognize About the listeners Of Jesus' day They weren't closed To the bad news They were CLOSED To the good news Of the Lord The reason They were closed Is that they felt threatened They denied the REALITY Of GOD'S PROMISE And they literally Pushed him away “They rose up Drove him out of town And led him To the brow of the hill On which their town Had been built To hurl him down headlong But he passed Through the midst of them And went away” Luke 4:29-30 WE CHRISTIANS Of the 21st century NEED to wake up To the PROMISE OF GOD “IT'S ALL GOOD” BELIEVE in God Believe in Jesus Their words are good “NO ONE is good Except God alone,” Mark 10:18 Jesus said And yet his Father LIFTED him up After the RESURRECTION Talk about GOOD “But the angel said to them 'Do not be afraid I bring you GOOD NEWS That will cause great JOY For all the people TODAY In the town of David A SAVIOR has been born to you He is the MESSIAH THE LORD” Luke 2:10-12 DEAR LORD=we pray That we will Always remain OPEN To the GOOD NEWS Of the Lord IT IS ALL GOOD Robert P.
