The Word Keeps Us from Evil

JOHN 17:8–9 8“For I have given them the words that you gave me, and they have received them and have come to know in truth that I came from you; and they have believed that you sent me. 9I am praying for them. I am not praying for the world but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours.” In the book of John, chapter 17 is the prayer of Jesus for His disciples before His arrest…

The Word Bears Fruit

JOHN 15:4–5 4“Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. 5I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.” Jesus describes Himself as the true vine, and God the Father as the vinedresser. The role of the…

The Word Sets Us Free

JOHN 8:31–32 31So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, 32and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” Jesus called upon the Jews to believe in Him, or they would die in their sins. Many put their belief in Him that day. However, even if they were freed from slavery to sin by believing in Him, Jesus knew living as free people,…

The Word Feeds Our Spirit

JOHN 6:58 “This is the bread that came down from heaven, not like the bread the fathers ate, and died. Whoever feeds on this bread will live forever.” During the time of Moses, God provided the Israelites with manna from heaven. It was the food that sustained them daily in the wilderness. They would gather manna and turn it into cakes (Numbers 11:7–8). They could get as much as they wanted every morning, but they could not store it until…

The Word Gives Life

JOHN 5:24 “Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life.” Every day, we probably think about the kind of life we want to live. We surround ourselves with confidants and secure more things to improve the quality of our lives. While these are good, there is a deeper hole that needs to be filled. All of us are looking for a life that has meaning and purpose. The world…

The Word Became Flesh

JOHN 1:1–2 1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2He was in the beginning with God. Many times in our life of faith, we have different misconceptions of who God really is. Sometimes, we may even feel that God is distant from us because of our misunderstanding of Him. We wonder about the best way to reach God among the seemingly different options available. Despite all these, God has made…

The True Proof of Our Offering

MARK 12:43,44 43And he called his disciples to him and said to them, “Truly, I say to you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the offering box. 44For they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, all she had to live on.” When this Gospel account was written, people only used coins. Based on the noise these coins made as they…

The Main Purpose of Our Wealth

PROVERBS 3:9,10 9Honor the Lord with your wealth and with the firstfruits of all your produce; 10then your barns will be filled with plenty, and your vats will be bursting with wine. At first glance, this passage may appear like a get-rich-quick formula. “If you do this, you will be prosperous.” But this passage is about what we give to God, not just what He will give us in return. We are to honor Him from the heart because He…

The Only Person of Our Worship

GENESIS 4:3–5 3In the course of time Cain brought to the Lord an offering of the fruit of the ground, 4and Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat portions. And the Lord had regard for Abel and his offering, 5but for Cain and his offering he had no regard. In this passage, we see Cain and his younger brother, Abel, giving their offering to God. They knew that they were giving an offering to…

Victory

ISAIAH 62:11–12 11Behold, the LORD has proclaimed to the end of the earth: Say to the daughter of Zion, Behold, your salvation comes; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.” 12And they shall be called The Holy People, The Redeemed of the LORD; and you shall be called Sought Out, A City Not Forsaken. In our study of Isaiah, we have seen that time and again God’s people failed to fulfill their part of the covenant.…
