Instructions

These are short devotional thoughts to accompany a daily Bible reading. The readings are arranged for a chronological reading of the scriptures. I am reading the Today's New International Version. However, it should work with any version. It is my prayer that it will encourage reading of God's word, and inculcating the teachings into daily living. May His richest blessings be with you!

October 7


John 2-4
At this, the beginning of the Lord's ministry, we begin to get insight into His motives. He is able to control the natural elements, demonstrated in the turning of wine into water. He confounds the wise with the simplicity of God's offered salvation, as seen in His dialogue with Nicodemus and that most favorite of all verses, John 3:16. Finally, He brings those considered the most undeserving into the fold when He offers living water to the Samaritan woman at the well. Through this exchange we discover one of the deep secrets of God when Jesus tells the woman, "Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks." John 4:23
