Free Reading Plans and Devotionals related to John 12:3

JESUS: HIS LIFE, a new series on HISTORY, explores Jesus through the lens of those closest to Him, and this devotional is designed to inspire you with stories of people in the Bible whose lives were dramatically changed by Jesus, in part because their expectations of who they thought He was or who they wanted Him to be were way off.

In this simple bible plan, we explore four ideas that help us grow as followers of Jesus. We will look at scripture and unpack concepts around being Jesus-centered, discipleship oriented, intimacy called, and missionally present. Each session has a scripture reading, a devotional thought, and a short time of guided prayer. Our hope is that it would help you follow Jesus to the depths of His heart and the ends of the earth.

The vocations represented in the characters of Easter can teach us a lot about God and how our work is a means of co-laboring with our risen King. In this four-day plan, we’ll look at the vocations of Mary, a baker, Barabbas, and Christ himself to draw out applications for our own work today.

A life poured out. We see an example of this in Mary who anointed Jesus (John 12:1-8). In these next 5 days, let us do as Mary did and smash the alabaster jar, so we may be overcome by the fragrance of Jesus.

I  went out for a run one morning when it was dark and very cloudy, but the moon kept breaking through—so beautiful and peaceful. I felt so close to our Saviour, Jesus Christ.

In this hustling world of jam-packed schedules and impossible expectations, true rest and renewal can only be found by submitting to Jesus. This reading plan will help you understand what it means to stop chasing distractions and start chasing Jesus.

We encourage you to set apart intentional time for each session, as well as extended time to journal your experience (if you are able). Feel free to use written meditation or the accompanying audio.

There are some incredible, resilient, trailblazing women in the Bible! The women of Maverick City Music, Maverick City Musica and Tribl share a personal testimony and revelation of how women in Scripture impacted and influenced their relationship with God and the way the live their life.

Near the end of his life, John was the last of the living apostles and wrote a story about Jesus. It’s his testimony of who Jesus is, what he said, what he did, and who he claimed to be. Jesus has a story. He invites us to make it our story. When we make Jesus’s story our story, we have life in his name. This plan focuses on the first eight verses of John 12. It is part of an ongoing series through John.

Whether we recognize it or not, we all are hungry for what only Jesus can offer. Amidst stress that spirals out of control, Jesus offers peace. Amidst darkness that saps our hope, Jesus offers light.

You were created in the image and likeness of God. You are more than enough! If you struggle with feelings of insecurity, doubt, fear, and low self-esteem due to what others have said about you or what you have told yourself; this plan is for you! I examine the life of Mary of Bethany to share valuable insights into how God sees, value, and accept you!

Martha of Bethany is often remembered as the worried and busy sister—the one who complains instead of sitting at Jesus’ feet. When we look at her holistically in Scripture, however, we see a beautiful progression that is worth emulating. In “Becoming Like Martha,” author Heather Kaufman expands our view of Martha by examining the three times she’s mentioned in Scripture, tracing her journey into a strong woman of faith.

We find our footing, belonging, purpose, and peace in and through a relationship with Jesus. You wouldn’t expect a relationship to thrive if communication was sparse, and time together was disposable. The further we move away from God, the harder the distance feels to regain. Unlike our earthly relationships, this is simply not the case with God. The moment we return, we are welcomed with beautiful restoration.

Our society has become increasingly materialistic, with many Christians falling right in line behind the cash register. This plan looks at some of what the Bible says about wealth.

See also "Jesus, I Want to Love You" (companion prayer) by Thistlebend Ministries.

We all know that we have a purpose in life. Sometimes it’s clear as day – other times, not so much. Finding our purpose in life is a journey as we all have different ways in which we have been gifted to serve God and others. In Part 12 we see Jesus preparing to carry out one of His main reasons for coming to earth – to set mankind free!

Embark on a journey to learn more about the life of Jesus. Together we will watch short clips from the film, The Life of Jesus, and reflect on what we see. Discover who Jesus really was and what He can mean to you. You can read each of the 10 plans separately, but we challenge you to complete the whole journey.

In readings adapted from "Saints and Scoundrels in the Story of Jesus" by Nancy Guthrie, we learn from the stories of a handful of the Bible’s scoundrels and see more clearly the ways in which they reveal the generous grace of Jesus toward sinners.

What does it mean to worship God? Is it an action? A song you sing? A way of thinking or acting? Can your life be worship to God? This Bible Plan will answer all the questions you might have about worship. And, yeah, you’ll learn how to live a life of worship!
