Thought For Today

Be Saved


Listen Later

I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Tuesday morning, the 17th of March, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We go to the Book of Acts 2:37:

“…Men and brethren, what shall we do?”

There’s a question, what shall we do? Then we go to Acts 9:4-5. Jesus says:

“Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?” And he said, “Who are You, Lord?”

Then we go to the last scripture, Acts 16:30:

And he brought them out and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” 

Paul and Silas, singing hymns and praying, the Holy Spirit visited that jail, broke open the gates, brought an earthquake, and released all the prisoners. The guard was so afraid, he wanted to kill himself, and Paul said, ”Do no harm to yourself, for we are all here. We are not running away. “What must I do to be saved?”

I want to ask you a question this morning. What must we do? This is what they asked Peter on the day that they were baptised in the Holy Spirit and filled with power. What did Peter say? Peter said in Acts 2:38:

”Repent and let every one of you be baptised in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.” 

The Lord is asking you and me this morning, ”What shall we do?” What does the Lord want us to do? I tell you what He wants us to do. He wants us to tell them that they must be saved, and I’m not talking about telling people that they must stop drinking, they must stop swearing, they must be saved! I’m not even telling them that they must go to church, that they must read their Bibles, that they must have a quiet time. No, they must tell people that they must be saved!

The first man I ever led to Jesus Christ was a man named Jannie Barnard. We were refereeing a game of Polocrosse, that’s rugby on horseback, and he looked at me, and he said, ”There’s something different with you. What’s happened to you?” I said, ”I’ve given my life to Jesus.” He said, ”I also want that. What must I do?” “I said, “I’ll see you tomorrow afternoon in my green cathedral, in my corn fields, my maize fields.” And at four o’clock that afternoon, I had the privilege of praying with Jannie Barnard and leading him to Christ. Go out and do it today. 

Jesus bless you and have a wonderful, successful day. 
Goodbye.
