Tidings to Tell

Read:  Psalm 32 / Proverbs 25 / Jonah 3 / Matthew 10

 

Psalm 32:2 ~ Blessed is the man unto whom the LORD imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.

Proverbs 25:13,25 ~ As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, so is a faithful messenger to them that send him… As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.

Jonah 3:2 ~ Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee.

Matthew 10:16 ~ Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be… wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

 

We are the messengers God sent

To bring good tidings of salvation.

We tell the lost they must repent

 To thus escape their condemnation. 

 

Arise, therefore, to bring the news!

Be wise as serpents wise, meek as doves!

What shall it profit man to lose

His soul for fleeting things he loves?
