Christian Devotional – August 1, 2014

Read 1 John chapter 5

VERSE:

1 John 5:9–We accept human testimony, but God’s testimony is greater because it is the testimony of God.

TRUTH:

God, through His Spirit, has testified as to who Jesus Christ is. In the previous verses, He explained that. But now, it is important to understand that since He is God, His testimony carries more weight and influence than any human’s testimony about who they think Jesus is. Do we take God at His word or are we swayed and persuaded by men when thinking about Jesus Christ? We cannot believe in God and not believe what He says about His Son Jesus Christ.

RESPONSE:

Father, You have given us so much proof that Jesus Christ is the Messiah, the Holy One. I believe You and what You say and I will follow Your testimony about Jesus. I will share with others who Jesus is, but ultimately, I will point them to You so that You can convince them of Jesus Christ.
