 Shalom,

Today's Spoken Word Bible Reading Plan begins in the Gospel of John, my favorite Gospel! Verses 1-5:

1 In the beginning [before all time] was the Word (Christ), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God Himself. 2 He was present originally with God. 3 All things were made and came into existence through Him; and without Him was not even one thing made that has come into being. 4 In Him was Life, and the Life was the Light of men. 5 And the Light shines on in the darkness, for the darkness has never overpowered it [put it out or absorbed it or appropriated it, and is unreceptive to it].

JESUS IS the Living Word of God! HE was WITH God, and He IS GOD! And HE lives in ME by His Spirit! HE lives in YOU by His Spirit IF you have received Him as Lord and Saviour! Verses 9-1:

9 There it was—the true Light [was then] coming into the world [the genuine, perfect, steadfast Light] that illumines every person. 10 He came into the world, and though the world was made through Him, the world did not recognize Him [did not know Him]. 11 He came to that which belonged to Him [to His own—His domain, creation, things, world], and they who were His own did not receive Him and did not welcome Him. 12 But to as many as did receive and welcome Him, He gave the authority (power, privilege, right) to become the children of God, that is, to those who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) His name— 13 Who owe their birth neither to bloods nor to the will of the flesh [that of physical impulse] nor to the will of man [that of a natural father], but to God. [They are born of God!]

YOU are born of GOD! If you have never received JESUS as your own Lord and Saviour, then I invite you to pray this prayer with me now, after believing in your heart, and BECOME a CHILD of GOD!

Almighty God, I am a sinner. I believe that Jesus Christ came to this earth, died on the cross for me, was raised from the dead, and is now seated at Your right hand. I accept and receive Jesus Christ as my personal Saviour and I invite Him to come into my heart and become Lord over my life. I thank You now Father, for welcoming me into Your family. You are my Father. I am Your child. Jesus is my Lord! Amen.

HALLELUJAH!

 When YOU asked, HE CAME! And HE will NEVER leave you or forsake you! NO, NOT EVER! Here, to remind you of this wonderful TRUTH, is Hillsong with "Here I Am To Worship":

Shalom in Him!
