Read John chapter 8 VERSE: John 8:12–When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life. TRUTH: Have we ever stumbled around in the dark? I know that I have stubbed my toe on the furniture because I was too “busy” to bother with turning on a light before I stepped into a dark room to just grab something quickly. When we are stuck in the dark, we do not see all the dangers that are around us. God is the light and He sees all, so as we…

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! Here is your video devotional for this week. We’re still looking at Life Lessons and dealing with relationships. Over the next 3 weeks we’ll be looking at various aspects of relationships and the good, the bad, and the ugly. Today we start with the good and look at Priscilla and Aquilla. Priscilla and Aquilla both worked together in their relationship and they were committed to following the Lord together. They each made decisions that would bring God the most glory. This is the example of how two people can work together to have a great relationship that is focused on bringing God glory. Missed some of the…

Read John chapter 6 VERSE: John 6:68–Simon Peter asked him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.” TRUTH: As we think about following God, is there any reason that we would stop? We experience several difficulties and trials as a result of being followers of Jesus Christ and just like the disciples in that day, Jesus says some difficult things that we aren’t always quick to accept. Still, even when faced with the difficulties and the trials, the realization and our response is to be just like Peter’s. Where would we go and what would we do if we weren’t following Jesus Christ? What hope would we have? Jesus Christ is…

Read John chapter 5 VERSE: John 5:6–When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to get well?” TRUTH: This is such an interesting question that Jesus asks. You would think that since the person has been lying in wait for 38 years that he would want to get better. However, Jesus wanted to speak with him and make sure that the man was willing to commit to the desire to get better. Sometimes, we get so used to the status quo in our lives that we accept it as the way things must…

Read John chapter 4 VERSE: John 4:42–They said to the woman, “We no longer believe just because of what you said; now we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man really is the Savior of the world.” TRUTH: The Samaritan woman had given a great testimony and had shared what she believed with her town. The people came to hear and see what she was talking about. Then, at the end, they made their own decision as to what they believed about Jesus. They couldn’t just rely on the woman’s faith and her testimony, they had to come to the place where they knew and recognized the…
