Pam’s devotionals highlight the names of Christ in the book of John. Here’s a quick excerpt with some bible study tips from Pam’s devotional: Jesus is the Way, Truth and Life:
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. (John 14:6 NIV)
The Way
Jesus states he is the path or road, and journey to the presence of the Father in Heaven. The good news is Jesus wants us to know the way of God even more than we want to know the will of God. When people ask, “How do I know God’s will?” I usually point them to 7 Simple Skills for Every Woman, because of a decision- making skill I like to call The Happiness Decision Cycle which is reflective of Jesus as the Way: “Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.” (John 14:21 NIV) God shows His love by revealing more of who He is, and we show our love with obedience that draws us closer to the heartbeat God, where it is easier to discern His will.
The Truth
Jesus is not merely truth based on opinion, sincerity, emotion, ideas, polls, or presentations. Jesus is truth based on fact. God, the Creator, is the litmus test and plumb line of Truth. You can value Truth by layering the Word into your life:
- Listen: Take in the Word through the audio bible, media and podcasts, internet bible videos, worship music and by recording yourself reading the Bible.
- Look: Read the Bible, create and read verses and memes, read Christian books, commentaries, bible studies, blogs, etc.,
- Link: When we take the Word, perhaps enjoy Bible art, and create art, clothing, or practical items, Truth is kept before us.
- Lavish: I give out the Word in speaking, sharing in live and virtual conversations and when I give through gifts to others in Christ’s name.
- Live it!: Obedience to Jesus is a powerful tool for good news in the plans of God. Often God tells His Story using our life as the illustration.
The Life
We can choose to RISE rather than RETREAT when tough times hit. We have LIFE in us! Zóé, Greek for life is “All life (physical and spiritual), throughout the universe, is derived… it always (only) comes from and is sustained by God’s self-existent life.”
This life links back to Gen 2:7, “…the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life…” The same God who breathed life into humankind, is the Christ who is the bread of LIFE, who is the light of LIFE, the resurrection, and the LIFE, who gives eternal LIFE and the abundant LIFE. Pray and ask Jesus to breathe LIFE into you and your circumstances today.
Thank you, Pam, for those wonderful insights.
