Day 26 - Your Way, Truth and Life Today! | February Devotional in the Gospel of John
John 14:1, “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. 2 In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. 4 And where I go you know, and the way you know.” 5 Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?” 6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.”
This is one of the most encouraging Scriptures you will ever read! One of our greatest concerns involves the future. It is something we cannot know, we can only plan and hope. Jesus offers assurances about our present and future:
1. Don’t let your heart be troubled, because God is helping you manage your present and future circumstances.
2. The next life, which is coming sooner than we think, will include eternal presence and provision with God in our own “mansion.”
3. At this moment, Jesus is your Way, your Truth, and your Life!
4. Your present life will include protection and provision according to your faith. Matthew 14:13 reads, “And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask anything in My name, I will do it.”
Jesus provides some "heaven" to go to heaven in!
