John 13:1-30
Inspired thots:
1) v1 ~ Jesus showed His disciples the FULL EXTENT of His love.
Jesus did not hold back at all. He gave His all. Up to the cross (death).
While He was on earth, Jesus did EVERYTHING to bless His disciples, even going down to the nitty gritty of demonstrating the Bottomline ~ serve and not to be served!
Such humility ~ as a leader, one with authority, to perform the menial tasks.
Jesus did not care for accolades. He taught the best way to live our life on earth - serve others humbly.
2) v2,27 ~ the devil really prowls around to devour (1 Peter 5:8,9) Hence, the Scriptures say rightly that Christians must be Self-controlled and Alert! Look what happened to Judas Iscariot. The devil hovers around him, tempting him to betray Jesus as he did Adam & Eve, and then ENTERS into one's soul to corrupt.
Demon-possession happens only when each person is not self-controlled and alert to the devil, and allows him to gain entry. Dont be wishy-washy in your faith. The devil prowls & prances to devour.
A daily time out with the Lord Jesus, to hear Him speak to ME. I am asking the Lord to share HIS thoughts with ME, to teach me more about Himself, and how I can be drawn closer to Him... for 'His thoughts are not my thoughts and neither are His ways my ways' Isaiah 55:8,9. This blog is not a theological exegesis. This blog is to record down the INSIGHTS & INSPIRATIONS of God's Word to me; speaking LIFE into my life for Abundant life! :)
