Nehemiah 10:1-11:36; Zechariah 7:1-14; Revelation 15:1-8
And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child. Luke 2:17
The message to the shepherds was good news, the Gospel. They were watching their flocks, doing their regular work, when suddenly they heard the message (v. 8). They wondered (v. 9) and believed. Then without doubting, they went to see the Christ-child (v. 16). They responded by sharing what they had witnessed (v. 17). Finally, they worshipped (v. 20). This should be the heart of those of us who have received the Gospel message and know the Lord Jesus Christ as our Saviour. We heard. We believed. We responded. We need to share and worship.—K. W.
Yes, we’ll go and tell of Jesus, the pure and holy, meek and lowly
