Mark 16:18 “they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”
As the gospel has spread, the servants of Christ have faced many challenges. Nature is cursed by the fall. So, both the animal and plant worlds can pose dangers. Beyond this, the microscopic world of disease is downright deadly. Despite these obstacles, the gospel marches on.
Heavenly Father, may we never let the obstacles keep us from proclaiming Your truth. Thank You for giving us the truth! We will treat it as it should be, as a precious gift that was meant to be shared. We will praise You for Your mighty power as the gospel is spread to all the world. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
