Today’s Word from God’s Word-Witness

JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Word from God’s Word is Witness.

A witness is someone who reports what they have heard, seen, or experienced.

In the Bible, there were witnesses to the resurrection of Jesus, and He called them to testify about what they saw and heard from Jesus.

Jesus appeared to His disciples and said to them in Acts 1:8, “You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”

That is the calling for the disciples of Jesus to this very day. A credible witness for Jesus is a truthful witness of God’s saving grace through Jesus Christ. As we share what God has done in the past and how He is moving in our lives today, we become witnesses of His good news to bring hope to the world.

Discover how the word “Witness” can have an impact on your life in the Year of God’s Word.
