The Road of Blessing: Believe in Jesus

The gospel of John is different from the other three in many ways. John wrote his gospel to a mostly Gentile audience. The apostle wanted his readers to understand the events in the life of Jesus but was more concerned that his readers understood the deity of Christ and the need to place their faith in him as Messiah. The book's theme is found in John 3:16, but the apostle makes it very clear why he wrote about the life of Jesus. John said, “But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name” (John 20:31). Those who are being sanctified are those who have trusted Christ as their Savior. Only those who have believed in Jesus have entered the process of being made holy.

For Sanctification: Who do you know struggling to believe Jesus is the only way to live eternally? Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you to accomplish his great works through your life. Love Jesus and enjoy His presence and power in your life through his Holy Spirit. Allow that love to motivate your obedience and strengthen your soul.
