07/11 1 John 5:14-15
And we are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him. 15 And since we know he hears us when we make our requests, we also know that he will give us what we ask for.
HEARS
We lead lives of quiet desperation. The Lord hears everything we think and say and He knows everything we do. Turn control of your life over to Him and He will always be with you. When You speak to Him He will listen and He will give us what we ask for. Jesus loves you.
07/10 1 John 5:13
I have written this to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know you have eternal life.
KNOW
Jesus never leaves us by ourselves, He is with us. He wants us to know that our faith is certain. His word guides us to Him and assures us of the things we can know for certain. When we belong to Jesus we know it.
07/09 1 John 5:12
Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have God’s Son does not have life.
TRUTH
God permits us to choose Him through Jesus Christ or choose self by unbelief. I would by the mercies of God plead with you to check out Jesus and try Him.
07/08 1 John 5:10
All who believe in the Son of God know in their hearts that this testimony is true. Those who don’t believe this are actually calling God a liar because they don’t believe what God has testified about his Son. 11 And this is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
SON
Believe in Jesus. He came that you might have life and have it abundantly. Jesus is Lord.
07/07 1 John 5:9
Since we believe human testimony, surely we can believe the greater testimony that comes from God. And God has testified about his Son.
WORD
What do you think about the Word of God? Do you believe it? If you don’t believe it, it doesn’t challenge God, it weakens you. Trust in the Lord and He will do it.
07/06 1 John 5:6-8
And Jesus Christ was revealed as God’s Son by his baptism in water and by shedding his blood on the cross —not by water only, but by water and blood. And the Spirit, who is truth, confirms it with his testimony. 7 So we have these three witnesses — 8 the Spirit, the water, and the blood—and all three agree.
WHAT
We stand in need of prayer. It is hard for humans to connect with the spiritual world and yet if we believe in Jesus we fully connect with the Lord’s victory in Christ. Our Lord Jesus gives us His shed blood: believe in Me and my great love for you and you will know how the Father loves you. Jesus was baptized as an act of obedience to God and He points to that as a testimony of Godly obedience and we are called to do likewise and when we do it too is a testimony for us as to our obedience. Finally, we are filled with the Spirit of God when we accept Jesus and that Spirit fills us, dwells in us and guides us in the way we should go. Jesus Loves you.
07/05 1 John 5:5
And who can win this battle against the world? Only those who believe that Jesus is the Son of God.
BELIEVE
When you believe in Jesus you have access to God’s everything. Jesus is Lord.
07/04 1 John 5:4
For every child of God defeats this evil world, and we achieve this victory through our faith.
VICTORY
Christ has won the victory. When we believe in Him we become partakers of Him. He gives us His victory. But, we have to claim it and believe it.
07/03 1 John 5:3
Loving God means keeping his commandments, and his commandments are not burdensome.
OBEY
Obey the Lord. Learn the rules and play by the rules. The Lord will give you wisdom, mercy, and grace to serve Him as His obedient servant. Oh, and we are not the one who decides what obedience is. Jesus has clearly detailed the right things to do in His Word.
07/02 1 John 5:2
We know we love God’s children if we love God and obey his commandments.
DO
We are saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. As a result of our salvation we are able to love God and obey His commandments. Therefore, love is a 360 degree thing for Christians. We love all of God’s children with whom we come into contact. Love one another.
