LIVES IN HIM – SEEN HIM OR KNOWN HIM / 1 JOHN 3:6

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) 1 John 3:6

Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.

LIVES IN HIM – SEEN HIM OR KNOWN HIM / 1 JOHN 3:6

LIVES IN HIM

The words “lives in him” and “born of God” (1 John 3:9) are equivalent expressions. Only those who continue to live in a right relationship with God continue to be born of God (His children John 15:4; Romans 8:1).

SEEN HIM OR KNOWN HIM

The verbs “seen” and “known” are in the perfect tense (the Greek perfect tense refers to action that occurred in the past with results continuing to the present moment). John is saying that no one who is living in sin – deliberately defying God and His standards – has seen (and continues to see) God, nor has he known (and continues to know) Him. This can apply either to those who have never had real faith in Christ or to those who knew God in the past but have not continued knowing Him in the present.

CHILDREN OF GOD / 1 JOHN 3:1

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) 1 John 3:1

Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

CHILDREN OF GOD / 1 JOHN 3:1

The truth that God is our Father and we are His children is one of the greatest revelations in the New Testament.

  1. Being a child of God – chosen and adopted through Christ as His very own – is among the highest honors and privileges of our salvation (John 1:12; Galatians 4:7).
  2. Being a child of God is the basis for our faith and trust in God (Matthew 6:25-34) and our hope of glory for the future. As God’s children, we are heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, which means that we have part in His eternal inheritance (Romans 8:16-17; Galatians 4:7).
  3. God wants us to become increasingly aware that we are His children. This awareness comes through the presence of the Holy Spirit – the “Spirit of sonship” (Romans 8:15) – within us. The Spirit allows us to call to God in a deep, personal and intimate way – “Abba, Father” (Galatians 4:6) – and He gives us the desire to be “led by the Spirit” (Romans 8:14). 
  4. Being a child of God means that, at times, we will be disciplined by the Father (Hebrews 12:6-7, 11) so that we can grow in spiritual maturity (1 John 3:9; 4:17-19). God’s highest goal in making us His children is to save us forever (John 3:16) and to make us more like Jesus (Romans 8:29).

A DEAD BODY … THE VULTURES / LUKE 17:37

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Luke 17:37

And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.

A DEAD BODY … THE VULTURES / LUKE 17:37

This verse suggests the certainty of judgment on those who are spiritually dead (Matthew 24:28; Revelation 19:17-18). Just as surely as vultures are drawn to a corpse, so judgment will come on the wicked when Christ returns.

REMEMBER LOT’S WIFE! / LUKE 17:32

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Luke 17:32

Remember Lot’s wife.

REMEMBER LOT’S WIFE! / LUKE 17:32

The tragic error of Lot’s wife (Genesis 19:26) was to place her interests and affections on an earthly society rather than on a heavenly one (Hebrews 11:10). She turned back because her heart (her affection and desires) still wanted to be in Sodom (Genesis 19:17: Genesis 19:26). Every believer should ask: Is my attention more focused on temporary things or eternal things? Is my heart more attached to earthly things than to Jesus and the hope of His return?

THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS WITHIN YOU / LUKE 17:20-21

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Luke 17:20-21

And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: 21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS WITHIN YOU / LUKE 17:20-21

According to Jesus, the present nature of God’s kingdom is spiritual, not material or political. Many people miss God’s purposes for their lives because they are not willing to let Him change them from the inside out. The fact that the “kingdom of God does not come with your careful observation” (Luke 17:20) means that it does not come as an earthly political power, and we cannot gain a place in it by our own good efforts. Becoming part of God’ s kingdom requires a completely changed heart and mind that only God can produce as we yield our lives to Him. As God’s kingdom purposes begin to develop within a person, he or she will begin to develop a Christlike character, including “righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit” (Romans 14:17). Through the power of the Spirit, we show the power of God’s kingdom by conquering the forces of sin, sickness and Satan, not by conquering kings and nations. When Jesus comes to earth the second time, then God’s glory (Luke 17:24; Matthew 24:30) as it triumphs over kings and nation and all evil (Revelation 11:15; Revelation 11:16-18; Revelation 19:11-21).

THANKED HIM / LUKE 17:16

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Luke 17:16

And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.

THANKED HIM / LUKE 17:16

Having received God’s love, grace, salvation and all His spiritual benefits, we must never forget to thank Him. What He has done for us should cause us continually to approach Him with grateful hearts. “We love because He first loved us” (1 John 4:19).

IF HE REPENTS FORGIVE / LUKE 17:3

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Luke 17:3

 Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.

IF HE REPENTS FORGIVE / LUKE 17:3

Concerning Jesus’ statement about forgiving, observe the following:

  1. Jesus is concerned that we maintain an attitude that desires to forgive and help those who offend us, rather than an attitude of revenge or hatred. 
  2. Forgiveness and the end result of a restored relationship cannot truly occur until the offending person acknowledges his or her wrong action and sincerely repents (expresses true sorrow and makes a complete change). However, our willingness to forgive should not depend on the other person’s attitude. Keep in mind that Jesus was not referring to the same offense being constantly repeated. In addition, forgiveness does not necessarily mean that we should foolishly trust someone who continually wrongs us or others. 
  3. We must forgive anyone who sincerely repents. Jesus’ statement about forgiving “seven times in a day” is not meant to give His approval of habitual sin (the same offense over and over). Nor is He saying that we must allow someone to severely mistreat or abuse us repeatedly. Instead, He teaches that we must maintain an attitude that is always ready to help and forgive others (Matthew 6:14; Matthew 6:15).

MILLSTONE TIED AROUND HIS NECK / LUKE 17:2

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Luke 17:2

It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.

MILLSTONE TIED AROUND HIS NECK / LUKE 17:2

A millstone was a heavy stone used for grinding grain. Jesus warns that it is one thing to choose to defy God for ourselves, but it is even more serious to influence or cause someone to sin because of our example, attitude or neglect of God’ standards. Such inconsiderate and defiant behavior will bring punishment so severe that it would be preferable to die before ever committing such sin (Matthew 18:6; Matthew 18:7).

WILL DO NOTHING EITHER GOOD OR BAD / ZEPHANIAH 1:12

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Zephaniah 1:12

At that time I will search Jerusalem with lamps
    and punish those who are complacent,
    who are like wine left on its dregs,
who think, ‘The Lord will do nothing,
    either good or bad.’

WILL DO NOTHING EITHER GOOD OR BAD / ZEPHANIAH 1:12

Some people in Judah had a deistic view of God (the view that God is detached from His creation, that He simply lets the world run its course and is not actively involved in people’s lives). As a result, they believed that God would not punish their sin. 

  1. Those who had this attitude would come to a fearful discovery and understanding on the day of judgment, when they realized that God certainly did hold them accountable for their actions. 
  2. We too need to know that God is not distant from us or uncaring about our lives. He allows us to make our own choices, but He patiently watches over us, ready to direct our lives if we will depend on Him. God will reward those who yield their lives to Him and pursue a deeper relationship with Him; but He will punish those who reject or turn from Him to follow their own evil way (Romans 2:5-11).
