John 8: 1-11 This is one of the most touching and beautiful scenes of the New Testament, as the Pharisees try to set Jesus up for judgement, bringing a woman caught in adultery, into the midst of the crowd.
Jesus remains quiet and calm, stooping down to write on the ground as the accusations are made. I imagine that the scribes and Pharisees grew angrier and louder as they tried to get a reaction out of Jesus. He stands up and speaks at last, " He who is without sin among you, let him be the first to throw a stone at her." And at that, they leave, one by one, until all are gone except Him and the woman. The only One who is without sin, the only One Who could righteously condemn her, chooses not to. " ... go your way... sin no more".
What grace!
Follow Me, Jesus says, for "I am the light of the world." To follow Him is to no longer walk in darkness- in blindness or obscurity; but to walk in the light of life. To follow Him we must be willing to say we are blind and ask that He open our eyes to see the Truth.
The Pharisees and scribes did not want to confess their own blindness... but perhaps in this situation they were closer than they had ever been.... and they didn't like it one bit!
Father in heaven, we want to see! We want to walk in the light of life... in the Truth of the One Who is the Light of the World. Open our eyes anew every day, that we might walk in a manner worthy of You, pleasing You in all respects. Fill us with the full knowledge of Your will, strengthen us with Your power. We give thanks to You, Father, for You have qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of Light! Blessed be the Name of the Lord! Amen.

John 7 It is the Feast of Booths, the last year of Jesus's life on earth. This chapter records for us the confusion and conflict that surrounds His ministry. Everyone has questions and opinions....
The brothers of Jesus did not believe in Him. ( v5)
The Jews were seeking Him. ( v11)
Some proclaimed His goodness while others accused Him of leading people astray. ( v12)
Many marveled at His teaching. (v15)
Some thought He was crazy for thinking that the Jews wanted to kill Him. ( v20)
Some thought, " Is this not the man whom they are seeking to kill?" (v25)
They argued about His birth place.
They argued about His teaching.
They were divided over everything that had to do with Jesus.
Jesus had been clearly proclaiming and proving His identity. He testified over and over that everything He did and said was directly from the Father in heaven. The people listened and made a decision - they either believed Him or they hated Him. We have to make the same decision -
Will we listen and accept His Words and believe in Him?
Or will we reject Him and all that He has to say?
Jesus says:
"The world ... hates Me because I testify of it, that its deeds are evil." ( v7)
"If any man is willing to do His will, he shall know of the teaching, whether it is of God, or whether I speak from Myself." ( v17)
"... judge with righteous judgement." ( v24)
"He who sent Me is true, whom you do not know. I know Him; because I am from Him, and He sent Me." ( v29)
" ... then I go to Him who sent Me .. and where I am, you cannot come." ( v33-34)
"If any man is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, 'From his innermost being shall flow rivers of living water." (v37-38)
We know that His Words are true. The deeds of the world are evil. He was hated and killed for no other reason than that they did not believe that He was who He said He was. He did go where they could not. He glorified the Father and sought no glory for Himself from man. He did give the Holy Spirit after His resurrection, the river of living water in our innermost beings.
Thank You Father for Jesus, for His life and teaching, for His death and resurrection. Thank You that He spoke the Truth and that it was written down so that we might also know His Words - Your Words for life. Continue to pour out the rivers of living water in our innermost beings. We ask this in His Name. We praise and exalt You, Jesus, our Lord and King. amen.

John 6:41-71 As Jesus continues to talk about Who He really is and His mission, there is a sifting - the unbelievers, who are just looking for physical bread, pull away. The only ones who will keep following Jesus are those who believe that He truly is the Bread of Life, the One who has the Words of eternal life.
Jesus emphasizes again that He is sent from the Father and that everything is according to the Father's will. "No one can come to Me, unless the Father who sent Me draws him.." The greek word for draw is helko - which means to drag, to take for oneself.
The Father sent the Son. (v29)
The Father gives out the true bread of heaven.(v32)
The Father gives the Son those who will come to Him. (v37)
The Father wills the Son to lose none of those He has given Him.(v39)
The Father draws or drags us to the Son. (v44)
The Father speaks and teaches those who will come to Jesus. (v45)
The Father grants believers to come to Jesus. (v65)
Jesus says, " As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats Me, he also shall live because of Me." (v57) And then in verse 63 He says, " It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing; the words I have spoken to you are spirit and are life."
The majority of the Jews listening to Jesus could not accept His teaching. Those who could not receive His Words could not receive Him or the eternal life that He was offering. Only those that believed that He is the "Holy One of God", those who were willing to take Him in - consume the Living Bread - would be saved. It is the work of the Father and the Son, and the Spirit together to bring us to eternal life. Blessed trinity!
Father in heaven, hallowed be Your Name. You have drawn us to Your Son. You have granted us Life in Him. We are Yours and we praise You, Father, Son, and Spirit, for Your great Love and Salvation. Be exalted ! Grant that others will come to the Son, please Father. Drag them into Your Kingdom, to be received by Jesus, Who will never cast them out or lose them. We pray for our family, near and far, to be among those who partake of the Bread of Life. Amen.

John 6:1-40 Jesus feeds the 5000. We know the story. So we don't need to retell it here, but look at some parts of it. Verse 2 tells us that the "multitude was following Him, because they were seeing the signs.." Verse 14 says, " When therefore the people saw the sign which He had performed, they said, ' This is of truth the Prophet who is to come into the world.'" Which sounds good! They get it... but then after Jesus crosses the Galilee and the people find Him again, He says, " Truly, truly, I say to you, you seek Me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled." And, just a few minutes later they ask, " What then do You do for a sign, that we may see, and believe You? What work do You perform?"
So, are they believers, or not? The signs that Jesus performed, the works are a testimony of Who He is. They are seeing the works. They seem to get it, but there is something missing still in their hearts.
Verse 27, " Do not work for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man shall give to you, for on Him the Father, even God, has set His seal. " The work, Jesus tells them is to, " believe in Him whom He has sent." There is bread and then there is the BREAD of life. Jesus tells us that He is the bread of life, Who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world. He takes away all hunger and thirst. He brings true life to all who come to Him. Those who behold Him and believe in Him. These are those the Father will give to Him and who He will raise up on the last day.
When Jesus sent the disciples out in the boat without Him and then came walking across the water in the middle of the night, something happens that I want to point out. Verses 20-21 " But He said to them, 'It is I, do not be afraid.' They were willing therefore to receive Him into the boat..." If it had been anyone else, walking across the water, in a storm, in the middle of the night... would they have received him? Not that anyone else could do such a thing, but they recognized that it was Him. Jesus, the One they knew. The One they believed in. The One they put their faith in.
How many of these other followers were willing to let Jesus into the boat? Did they believe in Him enough to allow Him to truly be their Bread. It would mean that they had to be "all in". And they still wanted the world.
When we believe in Jesus, we will go all in. We will receive Him into our lives, even in the darkest hours and the biggest storms. Even when we have nothing else, He will be enough.
Father, purify our hearts and open our eyes to see and know Jesus in this way. Amen.

John 5:33-47 Jesus continues to unpack the truth about who He is and His relationship with the Father. The Jews were questioning His authority and Jesus provided "witnesses" to testify on His behalf. In verse 31 He stated that, " If I alone bear witness of Myself, My testimony is not true." So, He gives them other witnesses, just not what they expected:
John ( the Baptist) was the first witness that they had already questioned. Jesus confirms that John's testimony was true.
Jesus declares that the second witness that they should believe is His Works - " the very works that I do, bear witness of Me, that the Father has sent Me." He healed the sick, raised the dead, made the blind see and the lame walk. These miracles testified of His identity as the Messiah, the sent One. They knew the prophecies, they should have known this and recognized Him .
The Father Himself is the next witness. If they were listening to the Father, Yahweh, and hearing His voice, they would know this. But they were out of relationship with the Father too.
The Scriptures were important to the Jewish leaders and they studied them carefully, but they used them for their own purposes and skipped over or explained anything that would have led them to the Truth of Who Jesus is.
The fact is, they didn't believe God and they wouldn't believe Jesus. There were obstacles that prevented them from receiving real life :
They were unwilling.
They didn't love God.
They wanted glory from men more than from God.
They claimed to know the Law, but they didn't really believe Moses either.
Jesus points out the real problem - self-centeredness and unbelief. They liked being important and respected. They weren't willing to give up "self" and Jesus would require them to lay all of that down, take up a cross and follow Him. Instead of searching their own hearts and getting right with God, they chose to accuse Him and eventually kill Him. Men will go to any extent to protect their pride.
Father in heaven, You are merciful and kind to us. You have shown us the truth and set us free from our own selfishness and pride. We cannot save ourselves. We cannot deliver ourselves from this sinfulness of "self". But, You sent Your Son to reveal the whole Truth. Our only hope is You. You love us and want the best for us and that only comes through receiving Your Son and believing Your Word. Believing that You love us. And when we come to You, laying down our "self" will be the best thing we ever do. So simple and yet so hard for prideful mankind. Lead us Lord God. Give us strength in our inner selves to empty ourselves of everything and allow Christ to fill us to the full with Himself. Amen..

John 5 After Jesus heals the man at the pool of Bethesda on the Sabbath, He begins to debate with the Jewish leaders. John covers a lot of what Jesus has to say and it is all important!
Verses 17-30 - Jesus discusses His relationship to the Father:
- The Father is working and Jesus is working - there is a united effort in bringing the Good News of salvation and the kingdom to earth. Jesus refers to God as "My Father" and the Jews understand that this is as Jesus "making Himself equal to God". (verses 17- 18)
-Jesus only does what He sees the Father do and He does it in "like manner" - There is a willing obedience to the Father's will and the Father's ways. (verse 19)
- The Father loves the Son, shows Him what He is doing, and will show Him greater things yet - "that you may marvel". The Father-Son relationship is just like a father and son on earth, but with a greater purpose. (verse 20)
- The purpose of both the Father and the Son is to "give life". ( verse 21)
- The Father has given the Son the job of "all judgement". (verse 22)
- The Father wants the Son to be honored. If we do not honor the Son, we are dishonoring the Father. (verse 23)
- To hear the word of Jesus and to believe the Father who sent Him is the way to eternal life. ( verse 24)
- The Father has "life in Himself" - He is self-existent, as Tozer would say, and " He gave to the Son also to have life in Himself ". ( verse 26)
- The Father has given Jesus, the Son of Man, "authority to execute judgement" ( verse 27)
-That judgement will come at the resurrection - when "those who did good deeds" and "those who committed evil deeds" will be separated - The first to life and the second to judgement.
Yet, even in this task of judgement, Jesus does only the Father's will - and His judgement will be perfectly just. ( verse 30)
Father in heaven, You have revealed these truths to us through the Words of Jesus, the Son. Help us to grasp the fullness of these truths. You sent Jesus for the purpose of giving life and to execute judgement. We need to meditate on these truths that we might understand and know the greatness and glory of Your Son. Open our eyes to see and our minds to comprehend, in His Name we pray, Amen.

John 4 Jesus came from above, from Heaven, to reveal heavenly truths to men. He said in John 3:11 that He speaks what He knows and bears witness of what He has seen. Only those who are born of the Spirit will be able to see the Kingdom of God and enter into it. To be born again, one must believe the testimony of Jesus, looking to Him Who was lifted up.. on the cross.. to give His life for our salvation. The Father loves the Son and has given " all things into His hands"; yet the Father gave the Son for the world that He loves. The Son speaks the words of God and gives the Spirit..
"without measure".
So, Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John and when He knows that the Pharisees had heard this... He leaves Judea and goes back to Galilee, by way of Samaria. Every action and word of Jesus is deliberate. He is perfectly obedient to the will of the Father. John writes that ,
"He had to pass through Samaria". This action wasn't because there was no other way, for most Jews would bypass Samaria and travel around it, so it was because the Father wanted Him to go this way, that Jesus "had" to go there.
We are told that Jesus was weary from the journey and sat beside well while His disciples went into the city to get some food. Here He meets the Samaritan woman, whose name we are never told. We know the story well.
Jesus asks her to draw Him a drink of water.
She is surprised that He even acknowledged her presence.
He tells her that she should have asked Him for living water.
She wants to know where He could get it since He doesn't have anything to draw with.
Jesus tells her that His water is more important than water from a well, for it brings eternal life.
She definitely wants water that will make her life easier.
Jesus tells her to go get her husband.
She says that she doesn't have a husband.
Jesus commends her for telling the truth... but that she has had 5 husbands and is living with one that she is not married to.
The woman is becoming aware that this is not an ordinary man... she believes He is a prophet and asks a question about where to worship God.
Jesus reveals a Truth that is a new concept - the argument has always been that worship should be in Jerusalem only... but the Samaritans weren't really welcomed to Jerusalem so they worshiped in the mountains. Jesus tells her that TRUE worship isn't about a place, it's about a personal relationship with the Father, Who is Spirit. True worship is about the "spirit and truth", He tells her.
The woman knows that the Messiah is coming to reveal "all things". Jesus declares that, " I who speak to you am He". This is a monumental moment. And just then the disciples arrive back.
The woman goes back to town to tell everyone else to come and meet Jesus. Many believe in that town. Jesus spends 2 days there with them.. and many more "believed because of His word;"
Father in heaven, our God and our King, You are worthy of all our praise. Thank You for sending Your Son to reveal the Truth to us on earth. We worship You in our spirits and in truth. We are born of the Spirit when we believe in Jesus Christ the Lord of all. We are made Your children when we call upon Him and receive Him as our Savior and Lord. How marvelous and precious is the gospel of Christ. May we wonder anew at the beauty and simplicity of this life changing Truth.
Father, may Your kingdom come that many more will enter in by the new spiritual birth. May we do Your will as Jesus did, in perfect love and obedience. Help us Spirit of God, to walk in the Light.
Accomplish Your will in our lives, Lord Jesus. We pray in Your Name. Amen.
