“And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.”
Luke 2:10 KJV
Luke wrote that the shepherds seeing the light of glory when the angel came to them out in the field, were petrified. But the angel reassured them, saying, “Don’t be afraid, for I have come to bring you good news, the most joyous news the world has ever heard! And it is for everyone everywhere! The angel or the celestial messenger calmed them and said that they had no reason to fear as he had the most wonderful announcement to make - this will lead to the great encounter of the most joyful bliss for every single person on the planet! Christians are now the messengers who give this joyful news to everyone they encounter. The message is of joy, not of suffering. Unfortunately, the wrong message is being given by many who call themselves Christians, to their detriment, as heaven and earth will pass away but the Word of God will never - and the Word says that the Gospel is a joyous message. Let’s correct ourselves and be Gospel carriers with joy in our hearts! Amen!
