"There is only one thing needed"...This was Jesus' response to Martha.That one thing needed is saving one's soul,in other words Salvation.Also,continually feeding the soul with its desired food,which is the word...The word of God. Now,why didn't Mary join Martha for the preparations? It's clear in verse 39,which says "Her sister,Mary,sat at the Lord's feet,listening to what He taught.This tells us that,Mary was more concerned about saving her soul and knowing the word of God,rather than running after worldly pleasures to satisfy the flesh,which stands for the preparations the bible talks about.Beloved,I encourage you to embrace the freely given salvation the Lord has brought to us.
John 17:4 is analogous to 2 Timothy 4:7 - testimony of a fulfilled calling or mission. John 17:5 confirms the divinity of Jesus, as in John 1:1 - that Jesus is God and has been in existence before the world was created. John 17 also teaches us that if we have received Christ, and we let His Word abide in us, we should be able to handle the trials and tribulations of life, and even overcome the enemy Luke 10:19 because His Word is spirit and His Spirit lives in us. Finally, the knowledge of Him and the presence of His Spirit in our lives guarantee us Eternal Life.
I've really had questions about "loving our neighbor"? Not certain why I never connected these two stories as one because as a little girl I'd heard the story of the Good Samaritan! I read it as a whole today and whoa, to cool to know love your neighbor can mean to help those on the street! I love it
Jesus always leading us to the Living Water. Our faith comes only by hearing the word of God. Jesus is the word of God and the word was with God. Thanks to Jesus precious blood that shed for us, his resurrection, his ascencion and the Holy Spirit that he sent for us. We must not forget that we are the child of God. Everything is possible with Christ. amen Jesus loves us all the time and he is faithful to his promises. we must love and keep his words until rapture. Amen
In life indeed, we are so much preoccupied with a lot of activities that could sustain our lives and improve our living standards. We are so much concerned about what to eat, what to wear, what to possess and the means to satisfy all these unlimited human wants. But we often take for granted the main thing which is salvation our eternity. We have forgot that Christ came with the sole aim of salvaging our souls from distruction by the devil, the ruler of the earth. However, the moment we begin to preoccupy ourselves with the word of God, his word will transform us into becoming salvaged christians. Lets focus on Jesus Christ, our redeemer.

Greetings fellow readers. Psalms 91 to me is a comforting message to faithfull children of God allover the world. It is assuring us of God 's protection over all those who dwell in his presence and that they have the power to overcome any dangerous situation that comes their way-be it sickness, deadly deseasis etc. In fact, it reminds me of Luke 10:19. It equally present God to us as our great protector having wings which he uses to cover his own faithfull children wheresoever they are and in whatsoever situation they pass- thousands will fall beside you but you will not be touched. I thank the Almighty God for this great assurance onto his people, for it inspires me to seek God the more into my life.
Jesus Christ,son of God has a promised John 3 16 through His blood we are saved from sins, repent .We all travelers in this world as far we encounter troubles, problems and more logic in life.Base on it His grace we move for sanctification to be the chosen and be are name be written in the book of life Luke 10:20 .By focusing Jesus Christ as the center of our life.I believe that when we get closer to God and made fully understand the Jesus Christ is our Savior,there is more trials to encounter by faith.Keep holding tight and God will not forsaken and be saved
Means if one lives according to the word of God following the commandment no earthly attack will reach you.You would conqure because even if they talk about you it will not hurt you you already protected by the word so it will bounce back to the original source this is what drinking poison and will not hurt you mean.
Jesus sent the to work in the field and they fulfilled their task and was happy that the spirits did what they told them. Jesus said to them be happy that your name is written in book of life .
This man was wanting to prove himself righteous. He wanted it to be publicly known that his views were correct and that he is justified in the way he treats others.
