John 14: 4-5, 7-8, 13-16, 21, 24, 26; John 3:16

Jesus comforts his disciples by explaining to them that if they have Him, they also have the Father who sent Him. Also, if they have seen Him, they have also seen the Father, for He is the incarnated representation of the Father.

Our path is to follow the teachings of Jesus, for in doing so, we are in unity with Him and the Father, as they are one. Jesus encourages us to pray in His name, not for His sake, but for the glorification of the Father. While Jesus may not be physically present, we are not left alone. We have His Helper, the Holy Spirit, who serves as our guide, teacher, and the one who brings to our remembrance all that Jesus has said. The Holy Spirit is our constant reminder of Jesus's promises, ensuring we never feel lost or abandoned.

Today's application: is to get to know Jesus. If you do, you will have His Helper, the Holy Spirit, and Him and the Father; they will be in you, guiding your life. For all three, make the Triune God.

John 13:12-20, 26-27; Psalm 41:9; Acts 2:1-4

In this passage from the Bible, we learn about a prophecy that was fulfilled in the presence of the apostles. Judas was influenced by the enemy, allowing greed to consume his heart and leading him to betray Jesus. Despite walking alongside Jesus every day, Judas valued money more than the love of Jesus.

John 12: 10-11, 28-29, 32, 42-50

Isaiah 45:23, Philippians 2:10-11 Psalm 115:17

Jesus came to do the will of the Father so that he may save all. Jesus united all kinds of people from different walks of life, such as Greeks, leaders, and definitely Jews. Most of those who believed believed because of the miracles He performed. Jesus did not come to "judge the world, but to save the world." He did not speak on his initiative but on what the Father told Him to say or speak.

Ultimately, every human being, whether on earth, in heaven, or under the earth, will come to acknowledge that Jesus is Lord. The question then becomes, why not accept him now, while his mercy is abundant and he is readily available? We have the freedom to choose, and choosing to accept him now will open your eyes to the profound and wondrous things of God (1 Corinthians 2:10). He died to be with you, to walk beside you, and to live within you as the Holy Spirit.

What's holding you back from receiving the free gift of salvation? Let all those walls down and accept him today.

John 11

John 10:1-21,24-39; 1 Timothy 2:5; John 14:6; Psalm 82:6

Here, we see Jesus explaining to the Jews His deity with a parable, as he was accustomed to do. However, their lack of understanding is not just a simple misinterpretation, but a reflection of their hardened hearts, for they did not want to recognize Him as the Christ. He explained to them that the works He performed gave Him the title of Christ because the works He did were what He saw the Father do, and He and the Father are one.

After He confirmed his deity to them, they wanted to stone him, but he reminded them of what was written in the Law about 'I SAID, YOU ARE GODS'? This phrase, in Hebrew, refers to Elohim, the true God, but it has other uses, such as angels, judges, demons, idols, and foreign gods. In this context, I would interpret it to mean that they were acting as judges, not as gods in the divine sense. Let's be clear that the word Yahweh refers to Elohim above all elohim.

Despite the tension and conflict arising from the crowd's refusal to acknowledge Him as the Messiah, Jesus remained patient. He desires all of humanity to accept Him, demonstrating His role as The Good Shepherd, the leader, and the door to the Father. His patience and compassion are evident in His desire for all to accept Him and experience His miraculous power.

John 9:1-41

In this chapter, we witness the transformative journey of a blind man's faith. He initially saw Jesus as a man, then as a prophet, then as a person to follow as a disciple, and finally as the Son of Man and Lord that He is, after being healed by Him and seeing him face to face. Despite being thrown out of the synagogue by the Pharisees, the blind man's courage in defending Jesus did not go unnoticed. Jesus, acknowledging this act, revealed Himself to the man as the Lord. Jesus would sometimes heal our physical illnesses, other times restore us spiritually, or other times both, as He did here with this blind man. Jesus healed on the Sabbath to show the Pharisees that there is no limit as to when a healing can occur, for the law was in the past. He came to open the eyes of those who see Him as Lord. The Pharisees believed more in Moses than the Messiah, who was right in front of them.

Today's Application: Jesus can heal you physically, emotionally, and spiritually. You just have to follow the process. Our lives can turn out great even if we do not start out so well.

John 8: 1-12, 18-19, 36, 56-58

In this chapter, Jesus forgave a woman who was caught in the act of adultery and brought to Him by the scribes and Pharisees. Jesus was aware of their intention to find a reason to arrest Him, but He also wanted the woman to see the salvation and forgiveness that He offers. He emphasized the importance of learning from our mistakes and moving forward without sinning.

The lesson for today is that Jesus came to forgive our sins, and once He forgives us, we should not return to the same sin. Instead, we should learn from the experience and align our lives with His teachings.

John 7:1-10, 50-53

In this chapter, we see that even Jesus' close relatives did not believe in him at first. At that time, his brother thought that he was seeking popularity through the miracles he performed. They acknowledged his power but did not yet see him as Lord. However, his brothers James and Judas later wrote their own respective epistles, which are included in the Bible, and ultimately came to believe in him.

Jesus wanted to avoid drawing attention to himself and instead directed it toward the Father who had sent him. He performed miracles and preached with eloquence to demonstrate to the crowd then, and to us now, that he came from the Father. His mission was to serve and to give his life in exchange for ours.

John 6: 27, 35, 50-51,55, 65

In this scripture, Jesus feeds five thousand men and then explains that He is the bread of life, and through His blood, by eating and drinking this bread, we will have eternal life. This means we will live forever and will be raised up on the day of redemption.

John 5

Jesus, in this chapter, heals a paralytic man, for this man had been trying to get healed in the pool of Bethesda for thirty-eight years. Jesus saw the low probability of this man getting healed, and He had compassion for him, which healed him on the Sabbath. So the Jews asked him who healed you on the Sabbath, and he did not know who had healed him, but later on, he found Jesus at the temple and learned that it was Jesus indeed who had healed him. The Jews wanted to take Jesus' life because of this healing, especially because it was done on the Sabbath.

Jesus further explained that He acts in accordance with the Father's will. He also revealed that the Father is the giver of life to the dead, and the Son has the power to give life to whomever He chooses.

Jesus went on to say that Moses wrote about Him (Deuteronomy 18:15-20). Also, John talked about Him, clarifying that His testimony was not rooted in Himself but that others had talked about His coming prior.

Jesus is the exclusive way to the Father. No other prophet, teacher, or individual has referred to God as his Father, except Jesus. "I and the Father are one (John 10:30). Also, He is "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me." (John 14:6). Without Jesus, our hope is limited to the earthly realm. But when we place our hope in Jesus, our hope extends to eternity.

Application: Trust Jesus with all your being. He alone can save.
