Love One Another

John 13:18-38

Key Verse: 13:34,35

“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”

Good morning! In last week’s passage, Jesus showed his disciples the full extent of his love by humbly washing their feet. In doing this, Jesus set the example for us to follow. We must follow his example by loving and serving each another with humility and love as Jesus loved us.
In today’s passage, Jesus reveals two shocking events to his disciples—Judas’ betrayal and Peter’s denial. These events must have weighed heavily on Jesus’ heart, but Jesus still loved his disciples to the end. Jesus gave them a new command to love one another. Love is the essence of Jesus’ ministry because love unites us with God and with other Christians in a community of love. May God help us to accept this new command in our hearts today and put it into practice. [Read more...]

THROUGH HIM WHO LOVED US
Romans 8:31-39 Friday, April 30

Key Verse: 8:37

1. If God is for us (31-34).
God showed his love by giving up his own son for sinners like us. God saved us from sin at such a great cost to himself. Not only so, God continues to love us. He gives us all things necessary to grow in the image of Jesus. God does not condemn us when we struggle. Jesus does not condemn. He intercedes for us at the right hand of God. His love will not fail.

2. More than conquerors (35-39).
Men are subject to all kinds of weakness. Satan wants to use these to separate us from the love of Christ and submit to the power of death. But when we hold on to the love of Christ in every situation of life, we who are weak find that we are more than conquerors. How can a man ever live such a powerful life? It is only through him who loved us. Each trial of life makes such a man in his weakness a testimony of the inseparable love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Prayer: Lord, thank you for sending your Son for me. Make me a testimony of the love of Christ.
