THE FIRST THING ANDREW DID / JOHN 1:41

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 1:41

He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.

THE FIRST THING ANDREW DID / JOHN 1:41

Notice the behaviors shown by Andrew: he followed Jesus without hesitation (John 1:37), and he immediately proceeded to introduce someone else to Christ (John 1:42). This should be the pattern adopted by all who follow Christ.

GRACE AND TRUTH / JOHN 1:17

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 1:17

For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

GRACE AND TRUTH / JOHN 1:17

Before Jesus came to earth to die for humanity’s sins (offenses and rebellion against God), God’s people in the Old Testament had to maintain their relationship with Him based on the Old Testament law that God gave through the prophet Moses. But even before the law was given, living for God and being “right” with Him was not simply a matter of following commands and regulations. True faith in Him was still the most basic requirement. That was evident in the lives of individuals such as Enoch, Noah and Abraham (Genesis 5:24; 7:1; 15:6). Their faith and God’s promises of forgiveness (Exodus 34:6-7; Leviticus 5:17-18) were evidence of God’s grace – His undeserved favor and love – even in Old Testament times. But now, through Christ, God’s grace and truth are available to the fullest measure (Romans 5:17-21). Truth is no longer veiled or hidden behind prophetic signs and symbolic activities (such as the sacrifices). Christ, the Word (John 1:1; John 1:14), has now full revealed God’s promises, principles and purposes. “One blessing after another” (John 1:16) means that God constantly provides the benefits of His presence and power to those who have responded to His grace and accepted Christ’s forgiveness and leadership in their lives. Spiritual salvation does not come by our own imperfect efforts to keep the law, but by the Holy Spirit – the Spirit of truth (John 14:17; John 16:2). The Holy Spirit reveals God’s truth and comes into the lives of those who receive Christ, renewing their spirit and re-creating them in Christ’s image. This means that they can respond to Him, have a personal relationship with Him and start to reflect His love, as well as His other characteristics.

THE WORD BECAME FLESH / JOHN 1:14

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 1:14

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

THE WORD BECAME FLESH / JOHN 1:14

Christ, the eternal God, became a human being (Philippians 2:5-9). Humanity and deity were united together in Jesus. In this humble way, He entered human life with the limitations of human existence (John 3:17; 6:38-42; 7:29; 9:5; 10:36). He would then experience all the difficulties and temptations we face – and overcome all of them with failing or disobeying God – so He could relate to us in every way (Hebrews 4:15). Because He became one of us, He also could give His life in our place, paying the complete penalty for our sin (our defiance and opposition toward God). In His sinlessness, He met the full requirement demanded by God; therefore, Jesus is the only one who could have bridged the gap that sin had created between God and humankind. As a result of His work, the opportunity for a personal relationship with God is offered to everyone. It is amazing that the opportunity continues to be rejected by so many (John 1:10-13; John 1:10; John 1:12; John 1:13).

BORN NOT OF … HUMAN DECISION / JOHN 1:13

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 1:13

Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

BORN NOT OF … HUMAN DECISION / JOHN 1:13

This verse reveals two truths:

  1. Birth into Christ’s family is a spiritual matter that requires a life transformation that only God’s Spirit can accomplish (John 3:5-7). It has nothing to do with physical conception and birth, which results from human effort alone.
  2. It was not God’s duty or obligation to offer us salvation through Christ’s sacrificial death for our sins. However, God did take the full responsibility to bring salvation to all of humankind. It was God’s own love, compassion and grace (undeserved favor, kindness, mercy and spiritual ability) that provided the opportunity for us to receive forgiveness, new life and an eternal relationship with Him (John 3:16; John 17:3).

RECEIVED … BELIEVED / JOHN 1:12

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 1:12

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

RECEIVED … BELIEVED / JOHN 1:12

This verse reveals how having faith (which allows us to receive forgiveness from God and enter a personal relationship with Him) is both an immediate act and an ongoing process.

  1. To become a child of God, one must “receive” (Greek elabon, from lambno) Christ. The aorist (past) tense here gives the meaning of a definite act of faith and acceptance at a particular point in time.
  2. Following the act of faith, there must be a continual act of believing. The word “believed” (Greek pisteuousin, from pisteuo) is a form of the verb describing ongoing action and suggests the need for perseverance in faith. This means putting faith into practice by continuing to trust and rely on God (John 5:24). In order for a believer to be saved in the end, true faith must continue after the initial act of accepting Christ (Matthew 10:22; 24:12-13; Colossians 1:21-23; Hebrews 3:6; 12:15; 7:25).

BELIEVED … HE GAVE THE RIGHT

  1. It is important to recognize that John never uses the noun “belief” (Greek pistis). Yet he uses the verb “believe” (pisteuo) 98 times because saving faith in God is practical and active. “Believing” in the true Biblical sense is not just a mental exercise; it is an active faith that yields the leadership of one’s life to Christ. True faith reveals that continuing trust through selfless action, obedience and service (James 2:14-26). Our own actions do not save us spiritually, but they are a result of true faith and salvation, showing our ongoing gratitude and trust in God (John 5:24). True faith grows and constantly brings a person into a deeper, more dependent relationship with Christ as Lord (Leader and authority in one’s life) and Savior (Hebrews 7:25).

THE RIGHT TO BECOME CHILDREN OF GOD

A place in God’s kingdom is not something we can earn. Only as we surrender our lives to God does He give us the right of being His children. Therefore, membership in God’s family is by grace alone (as a result of God’s undeserved favor, mercy, kindness and help; Ephesians 2:8-9). Spiritual salvation is a gift from God – not something we earn by our efforts (John 1:13). Yet Chrit’s message must be “believed”, and the gift must be “received” in order for a person to become an adopted child of God. To “believe in His [Jesus’] name” is to stand firmly on the work and character of Christ – recognizing all that Christ is, all He has done and all He is capable of doing. When a person receives Christ and turns over the control of His or Her life to Jesus Christ in this way, then he or she is “born again” (John 3:7) and becomes a child of God (John 3:1-21). Only those people who make the decision to “believe” and “receive” are “children of God.”

THE WORLD DID NOT RECOGNIZE HIM / JOHN 1:10

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 1:10

He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

THE WORLD DID NOT RECOGNIZE HIM / JOHN 1:10

The “world” is another word that is often used in John’s writings. It is found 78 times in his Gospel and 24 times in his letters (1 John; 2 John; 3 John). The term “world” includes a wide range of meanings, such as the universe, the earth, the people on the earth, most people, those opposed to God, or the worldly human system opposed to God’s purposes. In a general sense, it refers to the whole of society as it is organized and operating independently of God, His Word and His rule. Much of the world will never recognize or accept Christ; it will remain unresponsive and, in most cases, actively opposed to Christ and His message until He returns to finally defeat evil. John gives us the revelation of the world as the great opponent and enemy of the Savior (James 4:4; 1 John 2:15-14; 4:5). The Bible describes friendship with the world as opposition to Go (James 4:4).

We thank You for the blessings and gifts You have given us each and every day, knowing that every good and perfect gift comes from you, the unchanging source of all goodness and light.

In this new month, Lord, we pray for open hearts and grateful spirits. Help us to recognize and appreciate Your abundant blessings, both big and small that surround us. May we never take Your grace and provision for granted but continue to offer our thanks and praise.

As Jesus taught us to be content and trust in Your provision, may we follow His example. Help us to rely on Your faithfulness, just as He relied on You during His earthly journey. In moments of doubt or worry, may we remember that You ae our constant source of hope and blessing.

Lord, as October unfolds, may it be a month of deepening faith and trust in You. May we live in the awareness of Your presence and Your unwavering love for us. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
