“Hear
this all peoples; give ear all inhabitants of the world.” Psalm 49:1
By no means is the Bible written
just for the Jews or the Christians. The Bible is God’s proclamation to all
people in all places at all times. It is His perfect, inspired, inerrant, and
infallible guide for all mankind. The psalmist wants the world to hear God’s
message because everyone everywhere needs God’s message. Before Jesus ascended
into heaven He commissioned His followers to take His message and make it known
to all people.
The psalmist said he need not worry
about His fate for He trusted in God. He wants everyone else to know that they
can have that same assurance of hope or that they must understand their
absolute assurance of judgment. That is still our message. Trust Christ and
live. Turn away from His free gift and perish. God’s message has always been
consistent and He has always expected His followers to be eager messengers of
that message.
Dear Father, Fill us with the joy
that comes from sharing Your message of grace. Amen.
