Follow along as I read through the Bible in One Year and make a daily comment!
“Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit, He prunes it so that it may bear more fruit.” John 15:2 John 15 is one of my favorite Chapters in the Bible. Jesus is the Vine! Are you one of His branches? Do you bear fruit? […]
“for they loved the approval of men rather than the approval of God.” John 12:43 In the Verse before this, we are told that “many of the rulers believed on Him, but were not confessing Him”. This holds true today. All across the nation, people will go to church today, read their bibles, sing God’s
“Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink.”” John 7:37 We all know what it is to be thirsty; the desire and need to drink. Just as Jesus used this metaphor with the Samaritan Woman,
“Jesus answered and said to her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again; 14 but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never thirst; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.”” John 4:13-14 I have
“All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being.” John 1:3 So many things can be written about the 1st 3 Chapters of John. For some reason this verse caught my attention today. Consider the opening words “All Things”. Every created thing on this
“And He said, “Truly I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all of them;”” Luke 21:3 Most are familiar with this story, how others gave out of their surplus, but she out of her poverty. What lessons can we learn from this? What do we give sacrificially? How about our Time?
“But the tax collector, standing some distance away, was even unwilling to lift up his eyes to heaven, but was beating his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, the sinner!’” Luke 18:13 This is one of my favorite stories in the Bible, and also the 1st passage I ever preached on. At its heart,
“Now all the tax collectors and the sinners were coming near Him to listen to Him.” Luke 15:1 The entire Chapter of Luke 15 is made up of 3 Parables; the Lost Sheep, the Lost Coin, and the Lost Son, otherwise known as The Prodigal Son. If you remember from a previous Chapter, and in
“But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear him who, after your body has been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him.” Luke 12:5 Absolutely Devastating! Those are the words I must use from my Bible reading this morning. This Verse is part of it, but
“When Jesus had called the Twelve together, he gave them power and authority to drive out all demons and to cure diseases,” Luke 9:1 As I’ve mentioned before, these Posts are from my daily Bible Reading. This is where I started today in Luke, where Jesus commissions the 12 to go throughout Israel, preaching and
