Promise #7 - January 7

". . .  that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." ~John 3:16

John 3:16 is one of the most quoted and loved Bible verses in the New Testament. Many people have come to Christ because evangelists have used this verse over the years. This well-loved verse is, and always will be, based on the love of the Father. For God (the Father) loved the world so much . . .
​
Our Heavenly Father loved us so much that He gave up His most valuable possession: the life of His Son. This way, we could have eternal life with Jesus. What a wonderful promise! He sacrificed everything He cherished to earn our love because of His immense love for us.

Let's never forget how amazing it is that God loves us so much, as it says in John 3:16. Let's keep celebrating that love every day. Thank you, Father, for sending your only Son to the world to buy our spiritual freedom because you love us so much.

Prayer:

Thank you, Father, for loving me so much that You sent Your only Son two thousand years ago to save me. Help me make Jesus' enormous sacrifice for the whole world personal to me so that I can know in my heart that He died for me and now I must live for Him.

I can't find the words to say how thankful I am for the giant price You were willing to pay to save me and give me eternal life through my union with Your beloved Son.

I pray in Jesus' name. Amen.
