LUKE 8 - SHARE THE TRUTH OF THE GOSPEL TO SET THE CAPTIVES FREE!!!

Father, Son & Holy Spirit led me with eyes closed .. to Luke 8 for the 2nd time.

"Now no one lights a lamp and then covers it with a container [to hide it], or puts it under a bed; instead, he puts it on a lampstand, so that those who come in may see the light."

Luke 8:16 AMP

THE LAMP IS THE GOSPEL .. THE TRUTH. GOD'S WORD.

IF YOU HIDE THE LAMP (AND DO NOT SHARE THE TRUTH OF GOD'S WORD THAT YOU KNOW), THEN YOU ARE SUPPRESSING THE TRUTH THAT GIVES LIFE.

THE PURPOSE OF THE LAMP (THE GOSPEL) IS FOR ALL TO SEE THE LIGHT (JESUS IS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD ✨ .. THE SOURCE OF ALL TRUTH & REVELATION) SO THAT ALL WILL KNOW THE TRUTH. AND THE TRUTH WILL SET THEM FREE.

ONCE YOU HAVE RECEIVED THE TRUTH OF THE GOSPEL .. YOU ARE TO SHARE IT!!!

DO NOT KEEP IT TO YOURSELF — THAT IS AKIN TO HIDING IT OR SUPPRESSING THE TRUTH. SHARE WITH OTHERS WHO HAVE NOT YET HEARD IT!!!

"For there is nothing hidden that will not become evident, nor anything secret that will not be known and come out into the open."

Luke 8:17 AMP

THE GOSPEL WILL NOT REMAIN HIDDEN FOREVER. THE LIGHT (OF CHRIST) WILL SHINE IN THE DARKNESS (IN END TIMES) AND ALL TRUTH WILL BE REVEALED & MADE KNOWN.

"So be careful how you listen; for whoever has [a teachable heart], to him more [understanding] will be given; and whoever does not have [a longing for truth], even what he thinks he has will be taken away from him."

Luke 8:16-18 AMP

TO THOSE WHO VALUE THE GOSPEL & HAVE A DESIRE TO KNOW THE TRUTH .. MORE REVELATION WILL BE GIVEN. AND THEY WILL BE EQUIPPED & SUPPLIED TO GO OUT AND SHARE IT WITH THE WORLD.

THOSE WHO IGNORE OR DEVALUE THIS GIFT FROM GOD WILL RECEIVE SPIRITUAL BLINDNESS AND WILL NO LONGER BE ABLE TO DISCERN THE TRUTH.

GOD GIVES US FREE WILL TO CHOOSE TO ACCEPT THE TRUTH & BE FREE OR TO REJECT IT AND SUCCUMB TO THE BONDAGE OF SIN.

When I posted today's scripture & message on X, I received a timestamp of 11:14. Acts 11:14 is confirmation!! 

"He will give and explain to you a message by means of which you and all your household [as well] will be saved [from eternal death]."

Acts 11:14 AMPC

And if you add up the numbers of today's date (3+2+6+2+5) it is 18 and that is ANOTHER CONFIRMATION!!! THE BIBLICAL MEANING OF 18: CHOOSE THE TRUTH & LIFE ABUNDANTLY OR THE BONDAGE OF SIN & DEATH.

I noticed that I finished typing today's message on X at 11:01 👀👀 (111 is GOD'S BELOVED SON ..THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD)  I also found Acts 11:1 is another confirmation!

"Now the apostles and the believers who were throughout Judea heard [with astonishment] that the Gentiles also had received and accepted the word of God [the message concerning salvation through Christ]."

Acts 11:1 AMP

When I began taking screenshots of my post on X so that I could copy them for this blog post, the time was 2:22 👀👀 John 2:22. WOW!!!

"So when He had risen from the dead, His disciples remembered what He had said. And they believed and trusted in and relied on the Scripture and the words that Jesus had spoken."

John 2:22 AMP

TO CHOOSE LIFE IS TO CHOOSE JESUS!!! HE LOVES YOU AND IS EAGERLY WAITING FOR YOU TO ACKNOWLEDGE HIS FREE GIFT OF SALVATION & TO ASK HIM TO BE YOUR LORD & SAVIOR. THE BIBLE SAYS WE MUST CONFESS WITH OUR MOUTH THAT JESUS IS LORD TO BE SAVED FOR ALL ETERNITY. 

"And what is God's "living message?" It is the revelation of faith for salvation, which is the message that we preach. For if you publicly declare with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will experience salvation. The heart that believes in him receives the gift of righteousness of God - and then the mouth confesses, resulting in salvation. For the Scriptures encourage us with these words: "Everyone who believes in Him will never be disappointed." Romans 10:9-11 TPT

PRAY THIS PRAYER ALOUD WITH YOUR VOICE TO RECEIVE JESUS' FREE GIFT OF SALATION & INVITE HIM TO BE THE LORD OF YOUR LIFE:

Jesus, I come to you asking forgiveness of my sins. I confess in my heart and speak with my mouth that You are the Son of God who died on the cross for my sins, that You took my punishment & paid the price I could not pay for eternal salvation. I believe that you were raised on the 3rd day and are now seated at the right hand of God the Father. I receive Your free gift of salvation and I ask You to be the Lord of my heart, my soul and my life. Thank you for saving me & making me righteous before God.
