RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY MONDAY 20TH JULY 2026.
It’s possible for someone to believe in Jesus and yet not truly understand what the Gospel is. This is why the Apostle Paul, writing to Christians in Rome, said, “I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.” These were Christians, yet he still needed to preach the Gospel to them. That tells you something profound: the Gospel is more than the mere announcement of Jesus Christ; it’s a revelation that must be understood.
Many say they’re preaching the Gospel, but not everything said in the name of Christ is the Gospel. The Gospel has a definite content, a definite power, and a definite purpose. Paul defines it clearly: “it is the power of God unto salvation.” That means the Gospel isn’t just a message; it is God’s power in operation—His dynamic ability to save, transform, deliver, and establish in righteousness everyone who believes.
If you want to experience God’s power, you must understand the Gospel because that’s where His power is revealed. Then comes the deeper truth: “For therein is the righteousness of God revealed…” (Romans 1:17). The righteousness of God is unveiled in the Gospel. Until a man understands the Gospel, he cannot truly know God’s righteousness. Many desire to be right with God but they don’t understand the Gospel that reveals it.
That’s where we come in. As we preach and teach the Gospel, the righteousness that is of God, one that comes from Him, not from man, is unveiled. This righteousness makes you right with God, gives you boldness in His presence, and establishes you in dominion. Furthermore, the Bible says this righteousness is revealed “…from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” (Romans 1:17).
This means it’s a progressive unveiling. The more you walk in faith, the more this righteousness becomes evident in your life. This is the life of the one who has received this righteousness—a life governed by faith, sustained by faith, and expressed through faith. So, what is the Gospel? It’s not merely the story of Jesus. It’s not just the announcement of His death, burial, and resurrection. The Gospel is the unveiling of what His death, burial, and resurrection accomplished. It’s the revelation of God’s righteousness: how a man is made right with God, not by works, but by faith. We’ll learn more in our next study.
PRAYER/CONFESSION
Dear Father, I thank you for the Gospel of Christ, which is your power unto salvation. My understanding is enlightened to know the righteousness revealed in the Gospel. I walk in the consciousness of this righteousness and live by faith, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
