Day 28 of 31 — 3 John (Chapter 1) Scripture (NKJV) “Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.” — 3 John 1:2 “Beloved, do not imitate what is evil, but what is good.” — 3 John 1:11 3 John is a deeply personal letter, and it reminds us that faith shows up in everyday faithfulness. John celebrates a believer named Gaius—not for preaching sermons or performing miracles, but for walking in truth and supporting others in the wo

Day 25 of 31 — 1 John 3 Scripture (NKJV) “Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God!” — 1 John 3:1 “My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.” — 1 John 3:18 1 John 3 starts with a call to stop and stare: “Behold…” John is saying, “Look at this. Don’t rush past it.” The Father’s love is not a small thing—it’s a life-changing reality: you are called a child of God. That means your

1 John — Chapter 2 (Devotional) Key Scripture (NKJV “My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.” — 1 John 2:1 “He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.” — 1 John 2:6 1 John 2 holds two truths together that every believer needs: holiness and hope. First, John is clear: God’s desire is that we do not sin. Grace is never permission

1 John — Chapter 1 (Devotional) Key Scripture (NKJV) “This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all.” — 1 John 1:5 “If we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.” — 1 John 1:7 1 John opens with a simple, powerful foundation: God is light. Not “God has light,” not “God gives light,” but God is light—pure

Day 22 of 31 — Gospel of John Reflection Scripture (John 20:31, NKJV) “But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.” John tells you exactly why he wrote this Gospel: so you would believe—and so that belief would lead to life. That’s the heart of discipleship: not just learning facts about Jesus, but trusting Him as the Christ and the Son of God. John has shown us His glory, His compassio

Day 21 of 31 — John 21 Scripture (John 21:17, NKJV) “He said to him the third time, ‘Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?’ … Jesus said to him, ‘Feed My sheep.’” John 21 is the mercy of Jesus on full display. Peter had failed loudly—denying the Lord three times. But Jesus doesn’t discard him. He restores him. On the shoreline, with a simple breakfast and a personal conversation, Jesus asks Peter the most important question: “Do you love Me?” Not, “Why did you fail?” Not, “How

Day 20 of 31 — John 20 Scripture (John 20:16, NKJV) “Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned and said to Him, “Rabboni!” (which is to say, Teacher).” Devotional John 20 is resurrection morning—grief turning into glory. Mary came to the tomb expecting death. She stayed because she loved Jesus, but she didn’t yet understand what God had done. Then it happens: Jesus speaks her name. One word—“Mary”—and everything changes. That’s what the risen Christ still does. He doesn’t only p

Day 18 of 31 — John 18 Scripture (John 18:36, NKJV) “My kingdom is not of this world.” John 18 is intense—betrayal, arrest, interrogation, pressure. Everything around Jesus looks like defeat… but Jesus speaks with calm authority: “My kingdom is not of this world.” That one sentence reframes everything. The world fights for power, position, and control. Jesus stands in chains and still declares a Kingdom that can’t be threatened. His authority doesn’t come from politics, platf

Day 17 of 31 — John 17 Scripture (John 17:17, NKJV) “Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth. “ John 17 is one of the most intimate chapters in the Gospel—Jesus praying for His disciples… and for us. And at the center of that prayer is this: God’s people must be set apart by God’s truth. “Sanctify” means to set apart, to make holy, to mark something for God’s purpose. That doesn’t happen by willpower alone. Jesus points to the real tool God uses to shape us: His Word.

Day 13 of 31 — John 13 Scripture (John 13:15, NKJV) “For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you.” John 13 is where Jesus shows us what love looks like when it’s not just words. The King of Glory wraps Himself in a towel and kneels low—doing the kind of work nobody fights to do. He wasn’t trying to impress anyone. He was teaching a kingdom lesson: Greatness in the Kingdom is measured by service. Foot washing wasn’t glamorous—it was gritty. And th
