John 7:25-43

Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. 38 Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.” John 7:37b-38
In John 7 Jesus compared His Spirit to a river of living water. If we believe in Him, His Spirit is in us, and this river will flow in us and from us. It refreshes and brings life everywhere it flows. As you go about your life, remember that you carry this river of living water with you and let the Spirit work in and through you!

“Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. We have come to believe and to know that you are the Holy One of God.” (John 6:68-69) This was Peter’s answer when Jesus asked the disciples if they too would leave as the disillusioned multitudes had. These words should resonate with us. We should believe and know that Jesus is the only one we can turn to because He came to save us! And just as Jesus persevered because of the joy set before Him, we who authentically follow Jesus will do the same!

“Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his seal of approval.” (John 6:27) These were Jesus’ words of encouragement to the crowds that had been following him for the signs He was performing. Jesus told them He was the Bread of Life and that in Him was eternal life. He told them that the work of God was to believe in Him. We can apply this to our own lives by believing in Jesus and laboring first and foremost for food that feeds our soul. We can do this by reading the Bible, contending against the enemy through prayer, and fighting sin daily. This is the only thing that will last forever.

John 5:31-47

In this passage we heard about the Pharisees who had a love for the scriptures, but missed their whole point; that they were pointing to Jesus. Rather than realizing that Jesus was their salvation they were trusting in their own knowledge of scripture to save them and grant them eternal life. We must read the Word of God with a love for God rather than a love for knowledge and our own efforts to be saved. This will strengthen our faith in Jesus the only one who saves and gives us eternal life!

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
