Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come
into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by
the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has
done has been done through God.
John 3:20-21
New International Version
THOUGHTS ABOUT
TODAY'S VERSE
Truth
is seen in what it does and whom it seeks.
MY PRAYER
Father
of every heavenly light, I ask you to correct me gently as I place myself, my
imperfections, failures and sins in your presence. Forgive and cleanse me by
the blood of Jesus so that I might be spotless, holy, and blameless in your
sights. O Lord, I don't want just to be forgiven, I want to be useful to you
and your church. Please help me find my way to usefulness. In Jesus name I
pray. Amen.
Personalize God’s
Favor In Your Life
Then Peter, turning around, saw the disciple whom Jesus
loved following, who also had leaned on His breast at the supper…
John 21:20
In
the Gospel of John, you will find John referring to himself as “the disciple
whom Jesus loved” several times. Why did he do that? Did Jesus love him more
than the rest?
My
friend, John was simply practicing and personalizing the love that Jesus had
for him. We are all God’s favorites, but John knew the secret of accessing
Jesus’ unmerited favor for himself. It is your prerogative to see yourself as
the disciple whom Jesus loves, and to call yourself that!
As
you keep reminding yourself that you are the disciple whom Jesus loves, you
will grow in the consciousness of the Lord’s love for you. And the more you are
conscious of His love for you, the more you will find your fears dissipating.
Why? Because His perfect love casts out all fear(1 John 4:18). And besides
living fear-free, you will also begin to experience an increased measure of His
free favors!
