JESUS HAD KNOWN FROM THE BEGINNING / JOHN 6:64

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 6:64

Yet there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would betray him.

JESUS HAD KNOWN FROM THE BEGINNING / JOHN 6:64

It is not completely clear what “the beginning” means. This may mean that Jesus always knew the strong pull in Judas’ character toward wrong behaviors and what he would do. Or it may refer to the point in time when Judas began to drift from his original faith and formed plans to betray Him. Either way, Judas had the same choice as the other eleven disciples. Perhaps he was never completely committed to Jesus, but it seems as if Judas truly believed at first because he is described as a close, trusted friend of Jesus (Psalms 41:9; John 13:18). Jesus had made Himself and His power available to all of His disciples, including Judas (John 2:23-24; Matthew 10:1-15). However, at some point Judas became disappointed in his expectations of Christ and turned away by his own choice (Acts 1:25) – he did not have to betray Jesus. Though it was specifically prophesied that Jesus would be betrayed, the specific traitor, or betrayer, was not predestined or predetermined. Judas’ choice to yield to the enemy and the resulting tragedy serves as a warning to every follower of Christ. We must never allow friendship with the world to turn us away from devotion to Christ (Hebrews 10:29; 12:25; James 4:4).

EATS MY FLESH AND DRINKS MY BLOOD / JOHN 6:54

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 6:54

Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.

EATS MY FLESH AND DRINKS MY BLOOD / JOHN 6:54

We receive spiritual life by actively believing in Christ and sharing in the life-restoring benefits of His death on the cross for our sins (Romans 3:24-25; 1 John 1:7). We continue to experience His life as we remain in a close personal relationship with Christ and His Word. Compare John 6:53 with John 6:63, where He says, “The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life,” and John 6:35, where He says, “I am the bread of life.” We are fed spiritually and share Christ’s life as we continue to trust Him, spending consistent time in prayer and building our lives on God’s Word. 

  1. Jesus is the living Word (John 1:1-5); the Bible is the written Word (2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:21). Jesus calls Himself the “bread of life” (John 6:35), and on other occasions He relates this bread to the Word of God: “Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God” (Matthew 4:4). In this way, we eat His flesh, and we grow in a relationship with Him; this happens as we receive and respond to (obey) God’s Word (John 6:63).
  2. We are spiritually saved by God’s grace (His undeserved favor, love, spiritual enablement) and by the Spirit’s life-transforming power when we first hear, receive and respond to God’s Word (John 1:12; Acts 2:41). We continue to experience the benefits of salvation by remaining in a devoted relationship with Christ and by continuing to feed on God’s Word. We are to read, obey and absorb its truths into our hearts (1 Timothy 4:13-16: James 1:21). It is spiritually fatal to pull away from a relationship with Christ or to neglect His Word. 
  3. This passage is not a direct reference to “the Lord’s Supper” (the church sacrament of communion). Jesus is not teaching that receiving communion is necessary for eternal life or that this ceremony somehow gives us the benefits of salvation. He clearly states throughout this passage that faith is the key element (John 6:35; John 6:40; John 6:47; John 6:51).

THE FATHER … DRAWS HIM / JOHN 6:44

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 6:44

No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

THE FATHER … DRAWS HIM / JOHN 6:44

The Father draws people to Jesus through the Holy Spirit, who opens people’s minds to God’s truth. The Holy Spirit convinces their consciences of the presence of sin in their lives and their need for God (John 16:8-11). God’s invitation goes out to all people, as Jesus says: “I … will draw all men” (John 12:32). But this offer does not mean we must accept the invitation; we can reject it if we choose (Matthew 23:37, “but you were not willing”). This shows the importance of responding to God’s Spirit. If we ever sense something drawing us to God, it is a dangerous thing to resist because we cannot bring ourselves to Him whenever and however we please. We can respond to God only by His grace (undeserved favor, God-given ability, John 6:65).

MY FATHER’S WILL / JOHN 6:40

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 6:40

 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

MY FATHER’S WILL / JOHN 6:40

God’s will is His desires and plans based on His character and purposes. Therefore, it is important to understand the relationship of God’s will to human responsibility. 

  1. It is not God’s will that any believer should turn from a commitment to Him and fall “away from grace” (Galatians 5:4), separating himself or herself from God. For that matter, it is not God’s will that any individual should perish (2 Peter 3:9) or fail to accept the truth that can save them from spiritual death (1 Timothy 2:4). 
  2. However, there is a great difference between God’s perfect will and His permissive will – what He desires and what He allows because of our choices. He does not take away or deny the human responsibility to repent and trust Christ, even if it means that so many people will reject Him and miss His perfect will for their lives (Luke 19:41).
  3. God’s plan and desire to raise His people up at the last day (to bring their bodies to life in a way that they will live forever with Christ) does not release us from the responsibility of obeying His Word and following Him now (John 10:27; 14:21). For those who continue to obey and follow Him, death cannot destroy the life that Christ gives.

I WILL NEVER DRIVE AWAY / JOHN 6:37

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 6:37

All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

I WILL NEVER DRIVE AWAY / JOHN 6:37

No matter who you are, where you have been or what you have experienced in life, Christ will accept you if you come to Him in humility. Jesus promises to welcome all who come to Him in true repentance and faith (those who trust Him enough to admit and turn from their own sinful way and then entrust the leadership of their lives to Him). Those who come to Jesus do not come in their own power; rather, they come in response to the grace God has given to them (John 6:44).

I AM THE BREAD OF LIFE / JOHN 6:35

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 6:35

And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.

I AM THE BREAD OF LIFE / JOHN 6:35

This is the first of the seven “I am” statements of Jesus recorded in John’s Gospel, each one focusing on an important aspect of Jesus’ personal ministry. This statement tells us that Christ is the one who sustains and nourishes our spiritual life (John 6:53). The other (I am) statements are: “the light of the world” (John 8:12), “the gate” (John 10:9), “the good shepherd” (John 10:11, 14), “the resurrection and the life” (John 11:25), “the true vine” (John 15:1, 5),

MIRACLES / JOHN 6:1-2

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 6:1-2

After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias. 2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased.

MIRACLES / JOHN 6:1-2

  1. What are miracles? (a) They are works of supernatural origin and power (Greek dunamis; Acts 8:13; 19:11). (b) They function as a sign or mark (Greek semeion) of authority from God (John 2:11; Luke 23:8-11; Acts 4:16, 30, 33). The central and greatest miracle of the New Testament is the resurrection of Christ (1 Corinthians 15).
  2. Miracles serve at least three purposes in God’s kingdom. (a) They honor Jesus Christ, verifying the truth of His message and proving His identity as God’s Son and our Savior (John 2:23; 5:1-21; 10:25; 11:42). (b) They express Christ’s compassionate love (Mark 8:2; Luke 7:12-15; Acts 10:38). (c)They signify the opportunity for salvation (Matthew 11:2), the coming of God’s kingdom and God’s power over and invasion into Satan’s kingdom.
  3. God’s Word teaches that miracles are to continue through His followers in the church. (a) Jesus sent out His followers to preach and perform miracles (Matthew 10:7-8; Mark 3:14; Mark 3:15; Luke 9:1-2). (b) Jesus declared that those who believed in Him through the preaching of His Word were to do the works that He did and would do even greater things (John 14:12; Mark 16:15-20). (c)The book of Acts records many miracles done in and through the lives of His followers (Acts 3:1; 5:12; 6:8; 8:6; 9:32; 15:12; 20:7).In other places in the New Testament, these are called “signs” that confirm the truth of Christ’s message (Acts 4:29-30; 14:3; Romans 15:18-19; 2 Corinthians 12:12; Hebrews 2:3-4). (d) The Holy Spirit wants to continue showing these signs in and through the church today (1 Corinthians 12:8-12, 28; James 5:14-15). 
  4. The New Testament also teaches that supernatural signs and wonders will be performed by the power of Satan trough false teachers and preachers, especially by the antichrist and his false prophet.

YOUR EYES ARE TOO PURE / HABAKKUK 1:13

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Habakkuk 1:13

 Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity: wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal treacherously, and holdest thy tongue when the wicked devoureth the man that is more righteous than he?

YOUR EYES ARE TOO PURE / HABAKKUK 1:13

This verse does not mean that God overlooks evil; after all, He is omniscient (“all-knowing”) and sees everything. The fact that He realizes everything that is going on, however, does not mean that God approves of evil. What confused Habakkuk was this: God’s use of the wicked Babylonians made it seem like He was tolerating their sin while punishing Judah; and even though Judah was behaving wickedly, it was still not as corrupt as Babylon.

ARE YOU NOT FROM EVERLASTING? / Habakkuk 1:12

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Habakkuk 1:12

Art thou not from everlasting, O Lord my God, mine Holy One? we shall not die. O Lord, thou hast ordained them for judgment; and, O mighty God, thou hast established them for correction.

ARE YOU NOT FROM EVERLASTING? / Habakkuk 1:12

Habakkuk was appalled that God would use such a cruel and defiant nation to attack Judah. Babylon was so arrogant about its military might that it was almost like a god to them (Habakkuk 1:11). Yet the prophet was confident that God would not allow them to totally destroy his own people. Such a destructive plan would work against God’s purpose to use Israel to reveal His plan of salvation to the entire human race.

I AM GOING TO DO SOMETHING / HABAKKUK 1:5-11

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Habakkuk 1:5-11

I AM GOING TO DO SOMETHING / HABAKKUK 1:5-11

God answered Habakkuk by telling him He already had plans to punish Judah for its sins. He would use the completely unmerciful and ungodly Babylonians to carry out judgment on His people. (The Babylonians had gained their independence from Assyria in 626 B.C. and destroyed Assyrian power completely in 612 – 605 B.C. The speed with which they conquered other nations was legendary [verse 8], and they sent into exile the people that they conquered [Habakkuk 1:9], just like the Assyrians before them.) The thought that God would possibly use such wicked and ungodly people to punish Judah was shocking to the prophet and unbelievable to God’s people.
