Daily Bible Reading – February 2021 God’s Word of LoveSample

Introduction
The disciples of John the Baptist speak to him about those who are being baptized by Jesus and following him. John acknowledges that his own ministry must now decrease as the ministry of Jesus increases.
Today’s scripture reading
John 3:22-36
Today’s key verse: John 3:34
The one whom God has sent speaks God’s words, because God gives him the fullness of his Spirit.
Reflect
In today’s reading, the ministries of Jesus and John appear to occur simultaneously. How does John react to what his disciples tell him? What are your thoughts about John’s words in verse 30? How are his words an indication of his faithfulness and witness?

Lord Jesus, I rejoice with you when others accept you as their Savior. Like John the Baptist, my happiness is complete when I hear and obey your voice. Amen.
Prayer concern
Those who have been newly baptized
Tomorrow’s reading
