LOVE ONE ANOTHER / JOHN 13:34

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 13:34

A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

LOVE ONE ANOTHER / JOHN 13:34

Christ’s followers are commanded to love each other in a special way, though they may not belong to the same local church or denomination or may not agree on certain issues.

  1. Believers must distinguish true Christians from those who only pretend to follow Jesus by examining their love for and obedience to Christ and their loyalty to God’s Word (John 5:24; 8:31; 10:27; Matthew 7:21; Galatians 1:9).
  2. Any person who has a true and active faith in Jesus Christ and remains loyal to the authority of God’s Word (as revealed by the Holy Spirit through prayer and earnest study of the Bible) is a brother or sister in God’s family. Those who are willing to stand for Christ and resist the popular but ungodly beliefs and behaviors of our day deserve special love and support from one another.
  3. Loving all true Christians, including those outside of our local church or fellowship, does not mean that we must compromise our specific Biblical beliefs or agree totally with their doctrine. While these things should not divide us and prevent us from accomplishing our highest mission of leading others to accept the truth of Christ, we do not necessarily have to agree or come together on all issues of faith and organization.
  4. Christians must never compromise God’s holiness (purity, spiritual integrity and separation from evil) for the sake of a false unity. Loving God and His purposes as revealed in His Word will enable us to show God’s love to others – especially to those who believe differently than we do. Love for God must always be the top priority (Matthew 22:37, 39).

PIECE OF BREAD / JOHN 13:26

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 13:26

Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.

PIECE OF BREAD / JOHN 13:26

Jesus’ giving the piece of bread to Judas would have normally been an act of honor, but perhaps at this time it was a final appeal to turn from his evil plan. Judas, however, refused to change his mind, and Satan took control (John 13:27; Luke 22:3).

AT A LOSS TO KNOW WHICH OF THEM HE MEANT / JOHN 13:22

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 13:22

Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spake.

AT A LOSS TO KNOW WHICH OF THEM HE MEANT / JOHN 13:22

It is important to note that prior to Judas’ final act of betrayal, the other disciples never recognized his disloyalty and deceit. He had covered his hypocrisy very well. Even today there will be those in the church who outwardly appear right and sincere, yet inwardly they are not truly faithful and devoted to Christ.

WASH ONE ANOTHER’S FEET / JOHN 13:14

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 13:14

If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another’s feet.

WASH ONE ANOTHER’S FEET / JOHN 13:14

The early church appears to have followed Jesus’ example and literally obeyed His command to humbly wash one another’s feet. For example, in 1 Timothy 5:10 Paul states that widows would qualify for special care by the church only if they followed certain standards and actions. One of those acts was “washing the feet of the saints.” God’s blessings always depend on putting His Word into practice (John 13:17).

UNLESS I WASH YOU / JOHN 13:8

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 13:8

Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.

UNLESS I WASH YOU / JOHN 13:8

These words refer to a spiritual washing which cleanses a person from sin and guilt. Christ’s death on the cross would make this cleansing available for all. How ever, only those who admit their offenses against God, turn from their own way, surrender their lives to Christ and follow God’s purposes for their lives will receive this cleansing. Apart from this washing, no one can truly belong to Christ (1 John 1:7) and experience the life and purpose He has planned for them.

WASH HIS DISCIPLES FEET / JOHN 13:5

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 13:5

After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.

WASH HIS DISCIPLES FEET / JOHN 13:5

This dramatic act of foot washing, typically performed by servants, occurred on the last night of Jesus life on earth, Jesus did it

  1. to demonstrate to His disciples how much He loved them;
  2. to foreshadow (symbolically predict) His self-sacrifice on the cross; and
  3. to convey the truth that those who follow Him must humbly serve one another. A desire to be great had continually plagued the disciples (Matthew 18:1-4; 20:20-27; Luke 9:46-48). Christ wanted them to see that the desire to be first – to be superior and honored above others – is exactly the opposite of a Chrislike attitude, which He wanted them to imitate (Luke 22:24-30; John 13:12-17; 1 Peter 5:5).

WILL BAPTIZE WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT / JOHN 1:33

(KJV) John 1:33
And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.

WILL BAPTIZE WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT / JOHN 1:33

The word “with” is a translation of the Greek proposition en and can mean “by,” “with” or “in.” An alternate translation would be “he who will baptize in the Holy Spirit,” just as “baptize with water” may be understood as “baptize in water” (the word “baptize” literally means to “immerse,” or put under water).

All the Gospels (the accounts of Jesus’ and ministry by Matthew, Mark, Luke and John) state that Jesus is “he who will baptize with [in] the Holy Spirit” (Matthew 3:11; Mark 1:8; Luke 3:16; John 1:33). This baptism – a sign of cleansing and empowering – was to be the dynamic characteristic and distinction of Jesus’ followers. The Holy Spirit would be poured out on them (and into them) so that they might continue to carry His message of spiritual salvation throughout the world (Acts 1:8). The task of baptizing in the Spirit is the ongoing purpose of Jesus to this day (Matthew 3:11; Acts 2:39).

LAMB OF GOD / JOHN 1:29

START YOUR DAYILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 1:29
The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

LAMB OF GOD / JOHN 1:29

Jesus is described as the Lamb (a lamb was used in Old Testament sacrifices – particularly the Passover – to make atonement, or “covering,” for sin) provided by God Himself to pay the death penalty that all humanity deserved for rebellion against God (Exodus 12:13-17; Isaiah 53:7). While Old Testament animal sacrifices were imperfect and could not actually remove sin, Jesus Christ would be the perfect and sinless sacrifice, paying the full penalty of sin once and for all. By His death, Jesus broke the power of guilt and sin and opened the way to God for all who accept Jesus as Forgiver of their sins and Leader of their lives.

HAS GRANTED THE SON TO HAVE LIFE IN HIMSELF / JOHN 5:26

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 5:26

For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;

HAS GRANTED THE SON TO HAVE LIFE IN HIMSELF / JOHN 5:26

Jesus Christ’s own nature is a source of eternal life; it is part of who He is (John 1:4). This means that to know Christ is to know real life. God has not given us the power to have eternal life – a personal and eternal relationship with God – on our own. We can experience this life as God desires only as we trust Christ and remain devoted to close companionship with Him (John 15:4, 6; Galatians 2:20).

LIGHT SHINES IN THE DARKNESS / JOHN 1:5

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) John 1:5

And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

LIGHT SHINES IN THE DARKNESS / JOHN 1:5

John focuses on the strong contrast between the light and darkness (John 12:35). The light of Christ shines in an evil and sinful world (one that is going its own way in rebellion and opposition against God), controlled by Satan. The majority of people in the world have not accepted Jesus’ life or light because these qualities expose their sinful ways. Human nature is drawn toward and prefers to remain in spiritual darkness. But the darkness has not “understood it [the light]” (the darkness has not accepted the light, nor has the darkness overcome the light).
